56 Gb/s PAM4 SerDes
Maturity plannedTargets ASIC (CMOS) onlyDifficulty Very hardPriority 2
Dual-mode NRZ/PAM4 SerDes up to 56 Gb/s for 50G Ethernet lanes and chip-to-module links, with ADC- or comparator-based receiver and DSP equalisation.
Planned. This block is specified in the catalog with its interfaces and targets. No implementation exists yet; the skeleton command below generates a lint-clean shell with its ports and registers.
