The multimode signaling scheme offers effective crosstalk cancellation in high density links. This paper presents a new circuit/channel co-design methodology for high density links with multimode signaling. A detailed design approach is introduced and a detailed channel design optimization example is provided to validate this method. The optimized channel shows over 60% root mean square (RMS) jitter reduction compared with single-ended signaling. The printed circuit board (PCB) and package routing density of the optimized channel are 300% and 97% higher compared with a practical benchmark channel, respectively, and still shows 31% jitter reduction.}, booktitle={2013 IEEE 63rd Electronic Components and Technology Conference (ECTC)}, author={Yan, Z. and Franzon, Paul and Aygun, K. and Braunisch, H.}, year={2013}, pages={1356–1361} } @inproceedings{yan_won_franzon_aygun_braunisch_2012, title={S-parameter based multimode signaling}, DOI={10.1109/epeps.2012.6457832}, abstractNote={As the demands for higher density of interconnects and denser packages are increasing, crosstalk is becoming more important in input/output (I/O) design. Multimode signaling has been investigated for crosstalk cancellation. This paper presents a new scattering parameter (S-parameter) based methodology for multimode signaling. The set of coder/decoder coefficients (CODEC) is obtained from the S-parameters of the whole channel, which makes the scheme more applicable for practical systems. The derived CODEC shows a 20 dB improvement in signal-to-noise ratio and 45% reduction of root mean square (RMS) jitter compared with single-ended signaling for a practical benchmark problem.}, booktitle={Ieee conference on electrical performance of electronic packaging and}, author={Yan, Z. and Won, C.
