Overcoming Design and Evaluation Challenges of Intra-Pair Skew in High-Speed Interface
 
In digital signal interfaces such as PCIe and USB, as data speeds increase, the impact of intra-pair skew occurring in differential interfaces on communication quality has become more significant.

 

This white paper explains Intra-Pair Skew and introduces the method for evaluating Intra-Pair Skew proposed by Anritsu. Then, measurement results of the bit error rate (BER) when changing Intra-Pair Skew are shown.
