Re: XAUI IO specs
Mark,
I'll have to defer to Mr. Ali Ghiasi and Mr. Richard Dugan on this issue to
properly resolve the nomenclature. My understanding of the parameters listed is
as follows using Vo Dif(max) 800 mV as an example:
When the Output is set to a logic one, the positive differential signal,
referenced to a 0 V ground, is a maximum of +400 mV and the negtive differential
signal, referenced to a 0 V ground, is a maximum of -400 mV.
When the Output is set to a logic zero, the positive differential signal,
referenced to a 0 V ground, is a maximum of -400 mV and the negtive differential
signal, referenced to a 0 V ground, is a maximum of +400 mV.
I'd call this V diff peak-to-peak, but this I'm NOT an expert in this area.
Best Regards,
Rich
