Lee, Steve, et. al,
My experience is more in line with Lee and Chris's.  I was very familiar
with the vendor's parts and had used them extensively in the past.  There
were no layout issues.  All of the vendor's guidelines and recommendations
were implemented, plus more advanced techniques.  However, this time nothing
that I did on the board could touch the problem.  Absolutely no effect.  I
had never seen that happen before.
However, I was not treated poorly by the vendor.  It just took a month of
intensive review and exchange to reach a conclusion.  Cost my company 9
months and a re-design with a competitor's part (which worked on first power
up)).  Needless to say I was not a happy camper at the time.

Steve,

Your recollections are a bit off.   The engineer did every one of the
manufacturers fixes to no avail.  In one case, two different packages with
the same data bus were placed on the same PCB, ala Howard Johnson's famous
test PCB, and the results were very much like those that Howard got. It was
this final test that convinced those who needed convincing that the package
needed a redesign, and sure enough, that happened.  Indeed, the vendor in
question hired a group of package design specialists as a result of this
experience as did their primary competitor.

  I've got all the measured data on those tests and plenty of bad memories
about how this engineer was treated by the vendor.  The experience was bad
enough that the engineer decided to go into investment banking.  Might be
the smartest of all of us!

What we were not successful in doing is getting them to stop adding ferrite
beads to the power leads of the serdes.  That gave rise to another ad blitz
in EE Times showing good  eyes and bad eyes.

Most of us have seen this ad campaign.  As I recall, you did a set of tests
showing that adding all those ferrites was not a good idea and presented a
paper to that effect.  Don't know if that has had the desired effect.
