Front Side Bus Signal Groups
The front side bus signals are grouped by buffer type as listed in
Table 2-5
. The buffer type
indicates which AC and DC specifications apply to the signals. AGTL+ input signals have
differential input buffers that use GTLREF as a reference level. In this document, the term “AGTL+
Input” refers to the AGTL+ input group as well as the AGTL+ I/O group when receiving. Similarly,
“AGTL+ Output” refers to the AGTL+ output group as well as the AGTL+ I/O group when driving.
AGTL+ asynchronous outputs can become active anytime and include an active pMOS pull-up
transistor to assist during the first clock of a low-to-high voltage transition.
Implementing a source synchronous data bus requires specifying two sets of timing parameters.
One set is for common clock signals which are dependent upon the rising edge of BCLK0 (ADS#,
HIT#, HITM#, etc.). The second set is for the source synchronous signals that are relative to their
respective strobe lines (data and address) as well as the rising edge of BCLK0. Asynchronous
signals are present (A20M#, IGNNE#, etc.) and can become active at any time during the clock
cycle.
Table 2-5
identifies signals as common clock, source synchronous, and asynchronous.
