- Complex systems require increasingly sophisticated means of channel loss compensation to support data link stability. The PCI Express® (PCIe®) standard defines several equalizers for this purpose. With the upcoming PCIe 6.0 specification supporting 64 GT/s (up to 256 GB/s via x16 configuration), effective use of equalizers becomes even more critical to successful system design. This session will help engineers understand the fundamentals of how equalizers (EQ) work, different types of EQ including continuous time linear equalizers (CTLE) and decision feedback equalizers (DFE), how EQ are defined in the PCIe specification, and how PCIe link training works to optimize EQ settings
