IC Stressed Testing

EDCs and TIAs are very critical to the performance of the optical receiver.  It is critical that these building blocks comply with the 802.3ae and 802.3aq standards.  Conformance testing for the IC might require an O/E converter in which case we recommend the use of a representative receiver not an instrumentation grade O/E.
