Cable Backplane + META-DX1 Ethernet PHY= Great Performance at 3 Meters, 56 Gbps
Ralph Page, Systems Architect at Samtec, walks us through a live product demonstration combining Microchip’s META-DX1 family of Ethernet PHYs with Samtec ExaMAX® backplane cable systems. Samtec ExaMAX backplane cable systems improve signal integrity and routability using Samtec Flyover® high-speed cable technology, which routes signals above a lossy PCB using Eye Speed® co-extruded, ultra-low skew twinax for improved bandwidth and reach. The Microchip® META-DX1 is a 1.2 Terabit … [Read more...]
PCI Express Solutions & Effective Communication
Communication. There are hundreds of books about the various types, styles and strategies. You can earn degrees in the study of it. It’s a life skill everyone must learn, and there is a constant pursuit for ways to more effectively communicate. The PCI Express® standard can help with effective communication, but just for electronic devices instead of people - you'll still need to buy that book. This standard creates a connection for high bandwidth communication between a PCI Express® device … [Read more...]
You are Hot Stuff! An Intro to Thermal Management.
