Design Constraints Overview
shows a typical physical interconnect topology between two transceivers. Any
physical link connecting two point-to-point high-speed serial transceivers is defined as a
channel. A channel begins at the die solder bumps of the transmitter and ends at the die
solder bumps of the receiver.
In
, the channel consists of the FPGA package, transmission lines, connectors,
and transitions.
Transitions are defined as any section along a multi-gigabit channel where the signal must
go from a transmission line to a three-dimensional structure or vice-versa. Vias,
connectors, and coupling capacitors are examples of these structures.
While a more comprehensive list of transitions is discussed in
some common transitions are:
•
Ball grid array (BGA) to PCB microstrip
•
Microstrip to stripline vias
•
DC blocking capacitors
•
Connectors
•
Bends and turns in a trace
For optimal performance, the following must be minimized in a given channel:
•
Signal attenuation due to losses in the transmission medium
•
Impedance transitions at each transition can lead to reflections, ringing, and other
artifacts in the signal
At gigahertz signaling speeds, losses due to the transmission medium become significant
due to greater signal attenuation with increasing frequency. The attenuation of the high-
frequency components slow down the edge and reduce voltage swing, resulting in eye
