Abstract
This paper compares three different BER extrapolation methodologies for the ADC-based SerDes architecture design. It shows that Dual-Dirac method is the most accurate for BER estimation. This is further demonstrated through practical examples from IBIS-AMI model simulations of an ADC-based PAM4 SerDes design.
