Many of you already received communications about the move of the Cadence user community into cadence.com. And many of you have already joined, with over 4000 registrations in the first two weeks.

The new Cadence Community enhances the ability of Cadence users to connect and collaborate. In addition to moving the community into cadence.com -- enabling single sign-on for community, Sourcelink and Cadence events -- the new site is organized around nine technology segments, giving you easy access to product information, training, forums and blogs. Some of the new features include:
  • Ability to respond to posts via e-mail
  • Technology-specific blogs
  • Latest Web 2.0 social networking capabilities
  • Public profile options
  • Private messaging
  • Friends lists
Visit the new Cadence Community today at www.cadence.com/community and join the discussions!

Registration note: Due to the scope of the enhancements and the new SSO registration system, we were not able to migrate existing cdnusers.org member accounts. So new registrations are required, but this enables a broader set of functionality we think you'll enjoy.

Forum note: Under the guidance of forum moderators, we have taken the 20+ cdnusers.org forums and consolidated them into 11 forums on the new site. Posts have been brought over so you can leverage that posting history. CDNusers forums will be set to read only starting 7/30, and cdnusers.org will be redirected to the new community on 8/4.

Best regards,
Mike and Tom

I attended the EETimes Netseminar on GHZ interconnects and see that the data set is now posted on this community site. In reviewing the NetSeminar data I sense there is not good correlation between the link speeds and widths. In other words, I suspect that many of the companies that said they will run at 10 Gbps will really do that with 4 parallel serial channels. How can I answer or prove that from the data?

If you did not attend the seminar, see the data files on the non-forums part of the site in the Signal Integrity/Technical Resources section under Multi-GigaHertz. This file has some interesting trend information.

Rick Merrit from CMP Media, has supplied the following answer to this post:

"About 45 percent of respondents to our survey said they were achieving
10Gbit rates today via parallel means. We did not ask them any more
specifics, but we assume they may have meant 4x Xaui."

That's a good question. There is one pie chart in the presentation slides that can help. If you look at slide 11 you will see a pie chart showing that only 20% of the respondents were referring to single channels. It may have been more helpful if that chart had been on the slides that talk about link speeds. Rick Merritt may also have more insight on this, since he has access to the raw data."
