Abstract :
Designing pin-fields and related structures will be challenging for emerging 40 Gb/s electrically-based SerDes links. It is not known whether pin-fields implemented in conventional printed circuit board (PCB) technology will be capable of supporting these high data rates. We demonstrate through modeling and measurements that PCB pin-fields appear viable for data rates up to 40 Gb/s, provided that care is taken in the design.
