Intel^® 82598EB 10 GbE Controller - Models, Symbols, Testing Options, Schematics and Checklists
10. Models, Symbols, Testing Options, Schematics
and Checklists
10.1 Models and Symbols
IBIS, BSDL, and HSPICE modeling data is available from Intel.
10.2 Physical Layer Conformance Testing
Physical layer conformance testing (also known as IEEE testing) is a fundamental capability for all
companies with Ethernet LAN products. If your company does not have the resources and equipment to
perform these tests, consider contracting the tests to an outside facility.
Once you integrate an external PHY with the 82598, the electrical performance of the solution should be
characterized for conformance.
10.3 Schematics
Intel^® 82598EB 10 GbE Controller Reference Schematics are available on Developer.
10.4 Checklists
Intel^® 82598EB 10 GbE Controller Schematic and Layout and Placement Checklists are available on
Developer.
