  • Publication number: 20230335513
    Abstract: The designing method according to an embodiment of the present invention is a method of designing a transmission line portion coupled between a transmission unit and a receiving unit, and transmitting a signal from the transmission unit to the receiving unit. Also, one-data-width distance is obtained by converting one-data-width interval, which is corresponding to a sampling period of an equalizer provided in one of the transmission unit and the receiving unit, to a distance. Further, a first reflection source for reflecting the signal is arranged at a position of the transmission line portion, where is corresponding to a ½-data-width distance corresponding to a half of the one-data-width distance. Here, the position corresponds to a grid point where a row grid line drawn on a screen used in the designing method and a column grid line drawn on the screen intersect with each other.
