Baseline Transceiver Tests• Initial Results:
Baseline Tx Results Baseline Rx Results
• Observations– No Problems with Baseline Testing
![Page 6: Allen Duncan Curtis Grens Kenny Haulk Chris Lambrecht Nassisa-Geda Techane](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022013012/56814a1a550346895db7428a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Receiver Sensitivity – Attenuation• Initial Results:
5 dB Rx Results with Tx “On”5 dB Rx Results with Tx “off”
![Page 7: Allen Duncan Curtis Grens Kenny Haulk Chris Lambrecht Nassisa-Geda Techane](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022013012/56814a1a550346895db7428a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Receiver Sensitivity – Attenuation
• Observations– Rx gives better eye when Tx is “on”
– Rx with Tx on is better but still poor
• Hypotheses – Possible reasons why results differ when Tx is on
• Crosstalk
– Possible causes to Rx degradation• Crosstalk
• Poor PD characteristics
• Poor connections

Receiver Sensitivity – Attenuation
• Discovering the Problem– Test Simultaneous Operation
w/ RX Input Disconnected• Result: Bit-Pattern Present
• Conclusion: Crosstalk Evident
![Page 9: Allen Duncan Curtis Grens Kenny Haulk Chris Lambrecht Nassisa-Geda Techane](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022013012/56814a1a550346895db7428a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Receiver Sensitivity – Attenuation• Determining the Problem
– Checked all connections• Result: Found Atten. Were not firmly connected
• Analysis: Eyes were cleared up considerably
Firm Connect, Tx Off Firm Connect, Tx On

Receiver Sensitivity – Attenuation• Additional Problems
– With Tx on, eye-diagram is still cloudy• Crosstalk still a problem
– Possible Solution: Shielding
![Page 11: Allen Duncan Curtis Grens Kenny Haulk Chris Lambrecht Nassisa-Geda Techane](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022013012/56814a1a550346895db7428a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

X-Talk experiments: Shielding• Shielding between entire TX and RX
Aluminum Shield Setup between TX and RX

12
Receiver Sensitivity – Attenuation• Shielding
– Significant improvement in shielding Tx and Rx
Tx on, no shielding Tx on, shielded
![Page 13: Allen Duncan Curtis Grens Kenny Haulk Chris Lambrecht Nassisa-Geda Techane](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022013012/56814a1a550346895db7428a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
Receiver Sensitivity – Attenuation• Conclusion
– EMI caused significant degradation of signal with 5 dB or more attenuation
• Improved with shielding
– Connectors must have secure connections• Firm connection resulted in a receiver eye
– Crosstalk can be very misleading!

Performance Characteristics – Alignment Tolerance
• Region where we get acceptable results is basically circular
• Although, we may have estimated the center wrong
• Able to get a good eye, at center, up to 820um away
