1. Comparison of Equalization Schemes for 6Gbps SAS Channels (06-049) [Caroselli, Malipatil]

http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/document.06/06-049r1.pdf
The LSI presentation looks at peak vertical amplitude only, rather than width of the eye also. Yuriy will run simulations to show how number of taps increases width of eye opening.

2.  Spread spectrum clocking
a. Yuriy to present information on down-spreading versus symmetric.
b. Harvey to post a few notes on system clock impact.
c. HP (Barry) to provide more data as available.
d. Backwards compatibility and other issues need to be discussed and resolved. Alvin has posted a considerations document:
