Notes:
1. All output drivers have monotonic rise/fall times through the specified VOL/VOH levels.
2. Period, jitter, offset and skew measured on rising edge @ 1.25V for 2.5V clocks and @1.5V for 3.3V clocks.
3. The PCI clock is the Host clock divided by four at Host = 133 MHz. PCI clock is the host clock divided by three at
Host = 100 MHz.
4. 3V66 is internal VCO frequency divided by four for Host = 133 MHz. 3V66 clock is internal VCO frequency divided
by three for Host = 100 MHz.
5. THIGH is measured at 2.0V for 2.5V outputs, 2.4V for 3.3V outputs.
6. TLOW is measured at 0.4V for all outputs.
7. The time specified is measured from when VDD achieves its nominal operating level (typical condition VDD = 3.3V)
till the frequency output is stable and operating within specification.
8. TRISE and TFALL are measured as a transition through the threshold region Vol = 0.4V and Voh = 2.0V
9. The average period over any 1 uS period of time is greater than the minimum specified period.
10. Calculated at minimum edge-rate (1V/nS) to guarantee 45/55% duty-cycle.
11. CPU clock test load is Rs=33.2 Ohms, Rp = 49.9.
12. 20% and 80%
13. Measured at 1.25 Volts
14. Measured at 1.50 Volts
