Altera’s new Transceiver Signal Integrity Development Kit, Stratix® IV GX Edition, enables a thorough evaluation of the transceiver’s interoperability and SERDES signal integrity. This 8-minute video demonstrates the performance differences between 3-inch and 40-inch board traces and how pre-emphasis dramatically improves signal quality. You’ll also learn what a “bit-error ratio” is and why it’s important as well as how to monitor power consumption through the kit’s GUI.
