Notes:
1. The AMD Athlon™ system bus operates at twice this clock frequency.
2. Circuitry driving the AMD Athlon system bus clock inputs must exhibit a suitably low closed-loop jitter bandwidth to allow the PLL
to track the jitter. The –20dB attenuation point, as measured into a 20
- or 30-pF load must be less than 500 kHz.
3. Circuitry driving the AMD Athlon system bus clock inputs may purposely alter the AMD Athlon system bus clock frequency (spread
spectrum clock generators). In no cases can the AMD
Athlon system bus period violate the minimum specification above.
AMD
Athlon system bus clock inputs can vary from 100% of the specified frequency to 99% of the specified frequency at a
maximum rate of 100 kHz.
