Problems solved by technology

[0002] In the design of server motherboards, PCIE (peripheral component interconnect express, a high-speed serial computer expansion bus standard) often has short wiring lengths, excessive crosstalk, and discontinuous impedance.
This situation will cause the signal to be affected by crosstalk and reflection, and the integrity of the signal will be reduced

Embodiment Construction

[0017] The simulation method of the present invention will be further described in detail in conjunction with specific embodiments below:

[0018] Through the simulation analysis of the link with short PCIE bus trace and large crosstalk on the main board, the judgment standard is that the margin must be greater than 9, and only when it is greater than 9 can the link signal integrity be guaranteed.

[0019] Among them, the TX end sets (Pre-cursor, Cursor, Post-cursor) sum 0x3F(63). Under this amplitude, even if preset0-9 traverses, the eye diagram (the eye diagram refers to the use of experimental methods to estimate and improve system performance) An observed graphic) margin is not ideal (High, low, right, and left represent the eye margin), the test results take (0x0b, 0x29, 0x0b) as an example, and the specific results are shown in Table 1.

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of PCIE design, in particular to a simulation method for improving PCIE eye diagram margin. According to the simulation method, TX Vswing is reduced by adjusting TX-end setting (Pre-cursor, Cursor, Post-cursor), accordingly the link crosstalk is decreased to ensure the integrity of designed system link signals. By adopting the simulation method, the space waste brought by link design optimization is avoided, and increase of the design time and cost is avoided. The simulation method is simple, efficient and easy to achieve.
