2005 10Gbps Base-T

 -Introduction-
¡@
    As the demands for the bandwidth of LAN and MAN raises rapidly (50-200 times for every 7 years), the bandwidth of LAN has increased from 10/100 Mb/s to the next generation, 1Gb/s, and would soon enter the 10Gb/s era. Moreover, the 10Gb/s LAN would be dominated by Ethernet, because of the mature infrastructure reasons. Recently, several 10Gb/s LANs include 10GBase-LR and 10Base-LX4 which utilize optic fibres as media, and 10GBase-CX4 which utilizes four pairs of twisted coaxial wires as media. Compared these systems using fibres with the 10GBase-T one, 10GBase-T system will allow the lower cost because it does not need to use the photo-communication module. And a 100-meter transmitted distance for a 10GBase-T system is more attractive compared with a 15-meter one for 10GBase-CX4. Therefore the purpose of this project is to provide the circuit design and system analysis for the key components in the hundred-billion-dollar Ethernet System.
    This project includes five sub-projects:
Sub-project 1: 10GBase-T Ethernet on copper co-axial wire
Sub-project 2: Analog Front End for a 10GBase-T Ethernet Transmitter
Sub-project 3: Analog Front End for a 10GBase-T Ethernet Receiver
Sub-project 4: Analog-to-Digital Converters for a 10GBase-T Ethernet Receiver
Sub-project 5: High Performance DSP Engineering Design for 10GBase-T Ethernet
    This project is scheduled to finish in 3 years, where for the 1st and 2nd year we focus on the executions of subjects, and for the 3rd year we integrate the results of subprojects into a system. Specially, in the 1st year, we study standards and the method to define limiting budgets. Then we start system design and simulation, and study the technique for high frequency circuits. In the 2nd year, the key circuits and algorithms will be investigated. Then we would start circuit simulations and layouts and implement the circuit with processes that CIC provide. In the 3rd year we optimize every circuit and component in sub-projects and measure implemented ICs. At last we discuss the possibility for system integration, and discuss more about the possibilities if realizing 10GBase-T systems.
