Specialized Methods and Tools for Accelerated Characterization of High-Speed Serial Transceivers

Specialized methods and tools (high-level models) that can significantly speed up the calculations of high-speed serial channel transceivers have been developed. A detailed analysis of the time spent for the calculations and measurements of high-speed transceivers and the benefits from the application of the proposed specialized methods and tools during the design of these devices is presented. Examples of calculations of the designed transceiver are given with determining the main parameters characterizing the quality of their work, including the relative number of errors during reception.
