[STDS-802-3-400G] Electrical Ad Hoc email straw poll on Annex 120E (C2M) Pattern generator characteristics tables



In Monday’s Electrical ad hoc I proposed two alternative solutions to resolving the Pattern Generator Characteristics table TBDs (see snapshot of slide below).

These tables define the pattern generator jitter used in the Host & Module stressed input test procedures.

 

The first proposal uses a CAUI-4 C2M like definition of pattern generator jitter.

The second proposal uses CDAUI-8 C2C TP0a like definition of pattern generator (clock) jitter. CEI-56-VSR-PAM4 uses such a definition.

-          Although I have called out the 94.3.12.6.1 measurement method, the intention is “use CDAUI-8 C2C measurement method”.

 

The scope of this straw poll is not the specific table values, just the definition method:

 

Electrical ad hoc Straw Poll

 

I support a CAUI-4 C2M like definition of pattern generator jitter for the Host & Module stressed input test procedures                             ____

I support a CDAUI-8 C2C TP0a like definition of pattern generator (clock) jitter for the Host & Module stressed input test procedures   ____

 

Please respond by EOD Sunday so I can present the results at Monday’s electrical ad hoc.
