No, it is really the skew between two different pairs. The interpair skew
is 0.5mm between P and N.
The exact relevant paragraph in the PICMG 3.0 specification is "6.2.3.2
Base and Fabric Interface requirements"

I think that they are talking about interpair skew between the P and the
N

Hi all,
In PICMG3.0, there is a requirement for length matching between the
pairs
of a fabric interface channel : 2.54mm max.
Even for 10G backplane Ethernet type applications (PICMG3.1 /
10GBase-CX4)
this seems exagerated, as data are aligned at PCS level.
--> in 802.3 clause 48.2.4.2.2 there is a skew budget table, which
allocates 2UI (=2x320ps) for PCB (board) skew and 18UI for the
transmission medium (backplane) skew.
Is my understanding of the standard correct or do I miss something?
Thanks for your help.
Regards.
Daniel Peron
