Notes:
1. The numbers in this table are based on the operating conditions set forth in Table 8 and Table 40.
2. The maximum variable phase shift range, MAX_STEPS, is only valid when the DCM is has no initial fixed phase shifting, that is, the
PHASE_SHIFT attribute is set to 0.
3. The DCM_DELAY_STEP values are provided at the bottom of Table 37.
