Gigabit Ethernet:Progress Summary Completed Tasks Next Week’s Tasks

  3. Group Responsibilities • Andrew Meyerson – Administration, ordering, soldering • Clifton Kerr – Layout, design, testing • Vinh Nguyen – Webpage, report writing • Bryan Justice – Optical link budget, design, testing, report writing

  4. Gantt Chart

  5. IEEE 802.3z PMD Initial Research • We will be building a Physical Medium Dependent (PMD) sublayer board • PMD should conform to the IEEE 802.3z specifications for type 1000BASE-SX (Short Wavelength Laser)

  6. 802.3z Standard • PMD block diagram as found in the 802.3z standard

  7. 802.3z Cont. • Transmit characteristics (from 802.3z standard)

  8. 802.3z Cont. • Receive characteristics (from 802.3z Standard)

  9. 802.3z Cont. • The standard also defines a worst case link power budget and penalties • This will probably be needed for determining the optical link budget

  10. 802.3z Cont. • The standard also specifies how to test the PMD to ensure compliance • For example, the extinction ratio must be measured with a repeating K28.7 data pattern • The standard also specifies test values corresponding to the minimum level of compliance • For example, maximum high frequency optical jitter is specified

  11. VCSEL Research • Started looking at VCSELs • Performed 4 Corner Analysis of: • Advanced Digital Optics • Roithner Lasertechnik • Appointech • ThorLabs • Briefly examined:

  12. Four Corners Analysis for Roithner Lasertechnik TTR-D1

  13. Four Corners Analysis for Advanced Digital Optics HFE438x-521

  14. Four Corners Analysis for Appointech 850nm VCSEL Module

  15. Four Corner Analysis for ThorLabs VCSEL 780

  16. Four Corner Analysis for TechLabs VCSEL 850

  17. Other VCSEL Vendors • Lasermate • Link to datasheet for VCSEL with SC connector is dead • Optek • Does not appear to have VCSEL model with SC connectors

  18. Summary of VCSELs • The Roithner Lasertechnik TTR-D1 appears to be the best VCSEL so far in performance terms • Potential problems • Delivery time • Currency costs • The most affordable with good performance appears to be the ThorLabs 850 option • Is it connecterized?

  19. PDs and ROSAs • Preliminary research has begun for selecting an appropriate PD or ROSA • Delay due to questions regarding which will be used • ROSAs are readily available online and it is just a function of finding a cheap one with the right connecters

  20. Evaluation Board Testing

  21. Evaluation Board Testing (cont) • Tested both PRBS7 and K285 • Using the clock, found the eye diagram of both signals with and without attenuation • Used the Bit Error Rate tester to find the BER of the PRBS7 pattern

  22. Evaluation Board Testing (cont) K285 with proper attenuation (above) Triggering itself (below) PRBS7 with attenuation (above) without (below)

  23. Evaluation Board Testing (cont) • With attenuation, the BER of PRBS7 was measured to be 0E-9 • With no attenuation, the BER of PRBS7 was measured to be 6.9E-2

  24. Next Week • Research and select parts • Look at more VCSELs • Look at PDs/ROSAs • Call vendors for more information about price, availability, and whether the components are connecterized • Finalize optical link budget • Build evaluation board • Revise Gantt chart as necessary • Order parts?
