Undershoot could be an indicator of ISI, which could increase the jitter = and lead to poor bit error rates, so you shouldn't ignore it.

Most technologies have a 300mV rating or so DC level above = and below the supply and some have an AC level spec which allows for = more of an overshoot/undershoot but only for some period of time. If you = have a real problem look to better match the trace terminations with = your trace impedance and/or if budget allows slow down the drivers = somewhat. You should be able to do this in simulation since it appears = you have reasonable lab correlation. -Jory ----- Original Message ---- From: "vani.chandrasekharan@xxxxxxxxx" <vani.chandrasekharan@xxxxxxxxx> To: si-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, August 21, 2007 11:10:22 PM Subject: [SI-LIST] Undershoot issues =3D20 Hi, I am observing undershoot alone in my simulation and also in some of the on-borad captures of some signals(single ended, less than 50MHz). I am not sure how to mitigate this issue and how to rootcause this problem. Kindly give me some perspective on this issue and also some options I can try to mitigate the same.
