This 56 Gbps PAM4 demonstration of a Keysight 32 port PXI VNA with Samtec Flyover™ interconnect systems was presented at DesignCon 2018. In this video, Keith Guetig (who is Samtec's answer to Matt Damon) explains how Samtec's Flyover™ designs provide a cost effective, high-performance answer to the challenges of 28 and 56 Gbps bandwidth, and beyond. A Keysight Keysight M9375A PXIe VNA sources 8 pairs of 56G-PAM4 reference channels. The 8 signal pairs route through a Samtec high … [Read more...]
Samtec and Xilinx 56 Gbps PAM4 Backplane Demonstration
56 Gbps PAM4 At DesignCon 2018, Matt Burns (Technical Marketing Manager of Samtec) and Ivan Madrigal (SerDes Systems Application Engineer at Xilinx®), walk us through a combined Xilinx-Samtec 56 Gbps PAM4 backplane demonstration. One port of 56Gbps PAM4 PBRS31 data is sourced from the transmitter of the Xilinx test chip containing GTM transceivers. The data routes through high-performance RF jumpers to a test paddleboard made of Isola Tachyon laminate material, through a mated Samtec … [Read more...]
Samtec + Credo 112 Gbps PAM4 Long Reach Cable Demonstration
Credo and Samtec teamed-up to to show an impressive 112 Gbps PAM4 long-reach cable demonstration at DesignCon 2018. In this video, Samtec's Ralph Page and Credo's Alex Narazi walk us through the demo and the results achieved. Signal Path Three ports of 112 Gbps PAM4 data are sources from the Credo 112 Gbps PAM4 CDRs. The signals are routed through RF jumpers to an SI characterization card for Samtec's next-gen AcceleRatee® Cable Assemblies. One data path is a signal while the … [Read more...]

Here's a list of the demos scheduled for DesignCon 2018: 56 Gbps PAM4 Demonstration Of Keysight PXIe VNA and Samtec Flyover™ A Keysight M937XA PXIe VNA sources 16 pairs of 56G-PAM4 data … [Read more...]
Samtec New Products At DesignCon 2018
Samtec will be introducing several new products at DesignCon 2018. All of these products are designed to increase data rates, increase system density, and shrink product footprints, so designers can meet their system signal integrity needs. NovaRay™ High Bandwidth, High Density Array Samtec’s NovaRay™ is an industry-leading high bandwidth, high-density interconnect system. The pin-to-ground differential pair configuration enables very low crosstalk to 40 GHz+, tight impedance … [Read more...]
Samtec’s DesignCon 2018 Conference Schedule
DesignCon 2018, which is a big deal for Samtec, is a few weeks away. Our high-speed technologies for Silicon-to-Silicon optimization will be on full display and our product experts will show new products that are just released, or will be released in 2018. Our application engineers will demonstrate new system-level solutions, and our SI experts will present technical papers. In the next few weeks we'll write about all of these products, demos, events, and presentations. To help you … [Read more...]
High Speed Backplane Optimized For 56 G, PAM4
Samtec is expanding its line of ExaMAX® high speed backplane connectors. The new system is a direct mate orthogonal (DMO) configuration. These products were recently on display at SC17 in Denver. In the video above, Jonathan Sprigler, Samtec's Backplane Product Manager, tells us about the products, their applications, and how they are optimized for speeds up to 56 Gbps, using PAM-4 modulation. DMO Architecture Improves Electrical Performance ExaMAX DMO solutions give system designers … [Read more...]
28 Gbps Connector Demonstration
The 28 Gbps Product Demonstrator is an active system that showcases a variety of Samtec interconnect products at 28 Gbps and beyond. The Demonstrator was up and running at SC17, and Anthony Fellbaum was there also, where he walked us through the demo. Real World 28 Gbps This demonstration is different from those of other connector suppliers. Many of those demonstrations preferentially showcase one or two differential pairs in a channel through one connector or cable assembly. The 28 … [Read more...]
Deep Channel Analysis for High-Speed Interconnect Solutions
The term "deep channel" may rekindle a childhood memory of an unusual swimming location. It may conjure visions of unique music compilations of others. "Deep channel" has a wider application in next-gen high-speed connectors and system design. SI engineers depend on deep channel analysis to push throughput to 56 Gbps and beyond across the entire signal channel. The "Channel" in Deep Channel Analysis In legacy system designs, developers were able to focus on components selection. As long as … [Read more...]
28 Gbps Of Data Over Six Feet Of Copper Cable
28 Gbps Steve Leibson(1) and our friends at Xilinx® recently posted a blog about an interconnect system that carries four lanes of 28 Gbps data over six feet of cable. Since this is a Samtec blog, of course it's a Samtec connector they're talking about. The Xilinx blog references a short video that shows a Samtec QSFP28 copper flyover™ carrying four lanes of 28 Gbps serial data error free over six feet of copper twinax cable with plenty of margin. Steve goes on to point out that … [Read more...]
