In this article, you'll learn how eye patterns are generated and how to analyze eye diagrams for signal integrity by evaluating the eye height, width, jitter, and amplitude. Highlights: An eye diagram is a superimposed view of multiple digital signal cycles, forming an eye-like. An eye diagram is one of the most effective methods for analyzing the signal integrity of your PCB designs. It reveals the quality of high-speed signals by highlighting voltage levels and timing errors. The following is a simplified block diagram of the eye diagram creation process. It then describes different ways that information from an eye diagram can be sliced to gain more insight. Eye diagram are more relevant for wireline communication systems like USB, PCIe.
