AC Characteristics
The AC specification values for TSU, TDH, and TSkew assume a ± 0.4 V input
signal amplitude, relative to Vref, one volt per nanosecond slew rates, no mismatch
in pin loading, and zero time-offset between forwarded clocks and data. Any devia-
tion from those conditions can result in degraded chip performance.
VDD is in the range between 1.55 V and 1.65 V.
SysVref is 1.2 Volts.
BcVref is 0.75 Volts.
All output skew data is based on simulation into a 50-ohm transmission line that is
terminated with 50 ohms to VDD/2 for Bcache timing, and with 50 ohms to VDD
for all other timing.
Timings are measured at the pins as follows:
For open-drain outputs, timing is measured to (V
ol
+V
term
)/2. Where V
term
is
the offchip termination voltage for system signals.
For non-open-drain outputs, timing is measured to (V
ol
+V
oh
)/2.
For all inputs other than type I_DA_CLK, timing is measured to the point
where the input signal crosses VREF.
For type I_DA_CLK inputs, timing is measured when the voltage on the com-
plementary inputs is equal.
