We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Interface standards",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Low-cost serdes FPGAs available in volume from
Lattice Semiconductor UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "The LatticeECP2M devices are the industry's first low cost FPGAs to offer high-speed embedded serdes I/O, plus a pre-engineered physical coding sublayer block".
Earlier in the week,
we featured the news release Equaliser supports all 10G/8G interface standards from
Texas Instruments (April 2006-): "Flexible high-speed equaliser extends the reach of printed circuit board signal channels, such as backplanes or active copper cables".
In October 2007, we covered the news from Tektronix
concerning its 80SJNB Advanced
- take a look at Software helps serial analysers work end to end
which says: "High speed serial data analysis software package covers signal chain from transmitter to receiver and including the connecting channel".
Take a look also at the news release from Mentor Graphics UK, Design companies agree on verification,
as well as Extension expands COM Express definition from Kontron UK,
and Dell joins HyperTransport Technology Consortium from HyperTransport Consortium.
