Definitions
DC Common Mode Input Voltage.
AC differential Input Voltage: The minimum AC input differential voltage required for switching.
DC differential Input Voltage: The minimum DC input differential voltage required for switching.
Input Common Mode Voltage: The common mode of the differential signal at the receiver.
Input differential Voltage Swing: The difference in voltage between the positive and
complementary conductors of a differential transmission at the receiver.
Voltage Input High: The minimum positive voltage applied to the input which is accepted by the
device as a logic high.
High-level AC input voltage.
High-level DC input voltage.
Voltage Input Low: The maximum positive voltage applied to the input which is accepted by the
device as a logic low.
Low-level AC input voltage.
Low-level DC input voltage.
DC input voltage.
Output Common Mode Voltage: The common mode of the differential signal at the transmitter.
Output differential Voltage Swing: The difference in voltage between the positive and
complementary conductors of a differential transmission at the transmitter. VOD = VOH – VOL.
Voltage Output High: The maximum positive voltage from an output which the device considers is
accepted as the minimum positive high level.
Voltage Output Low: The maximum positive voltage from an output which the device considers is
accepted as the maximum positive low level.
Output offset voltage: VOS = (VOH + VOL) / 2.
AC differential Output cross point voltage: The voltage at which the differential output signals must
cross.
Reference voltage for SSTL, HSTL I/O Standards.
AC input reference voltage for SSTL, HSTL I/O Standards. VREF(AC) = VREF(DC) + noise. The
peak-to-peak AC noise on VREF should not exceed 2% of V . REF(DC)
DC input reference voltage for SSTL, HSTL I/O Standards.
AC differential Input Voltage: AC Input differential voltage required for switching. For the SSTL
Differential I/O Standard, refer to Input Waveforms.
DC differential Input Voltage: DC Input differential voltage required for switching. For the SSTL
Differential I/O Standard, refer to Input Waveforms.
Termination voltage for SSTL, HSTL I/O Standards.
AC differential Input cross point Voltage: The voltage at which the differential input signals must
cross.
