Perry, StatEye has filters and jitter settings that can be used to create a TX model which produces a stressed eye (barely meets the near end mask) for the standard of interest. You can then use the channel s4p, simulate and check it against the far end mask. Thanks, Vinu QU Perry wrote: >Thanks, Vinu.
