Table 2: Typical Measured Reflections from NeXLevT 15mm in differential mode. (Maximum Positive Value / Maximum Negative Value)

Test Conditions:

System Differential Impedance: 100 Ohms Nominal

Actual Board Impedance: 102 Ohms 73 Real Pairs/Linear Inch of Connector. See Note below for PWB pad and via launch description.

Differential Crosstalk to a (+/-) signal pair is here calculated by the following formula:

noise (+) - noise (-)
Diff Xtalk = ---------------------------------- x 100%
signal swing(+) - signal swing (-)

NOTE: The measured capacitance of the PWB launch for these measurements is 0.65 pF, corresponding to a 0.35mm plated-through hole in 2.4mm board. Non-functional pads were not removed on this test board. Negative reflection amplitudes will decrease by removing non-functional inner-layer pads, etc. Results will vary with different printed circuit boards.

Spice Models

The following Single Line Spice Model of the NeXLev Connector is good for rise times down to 60 picoseconds, 20% to 80%.

Description Document Number Type/Size
NeXLev(R) 15mm Height Connector, Single-Line Model TCS-NEX002-0902 cir (8KB)


In order to run the Single Line Spice Model, you will need a Berkley Spice compatible circuit simulator. The .cir file extension is an ASCII text file.

Teradyne will provide the NeXLev connector Multiline Spice Model to customers under a limited use license. Please contact your local sales representative or fill in the information request form for more details (note singal integrity models in comments section).
