Time and frequency characterization of the high speed I/O data bus

High speed data transfer between the CPU and peripherals on the PC motherboard is needed to support data traffic in future generation applications such as multimedia, games and broadband networks. The High Speed I/O data bus is developed to meet these applications. At high speed with multi Gbits/sec...
