The speed of serial interface through a backplane channel suffers severe ISI (Inter Symbol Interference) caused by the limited bandwidth of the channel. In order to overcome the bandwidth limit, a pulse shaping circuit or an adaptive equalizer is used. This paper presents the comparison between two approaches. Prototype chip is designed for 10Gbps serial data communication through a 34-inch transmission line with a 0.18-??? CMOS process. The simulation and layout results show that the adaptive equalization has superior performance in power consumption, silicon area and the jitter performance.
