GREEN
O
A
GREEN Analog Video Output: This signal is a CRT Analog
video output from the internal color palette DAC. The DAC is
designed for a 37.5 ohm routing impedance, but the terminating
resistor to ground will be 75 ohms (e.g., 75 ohm resistor on the
board, in parallel with a 75 ohm CRT load).

GREEN# Analog Output: This signal is an analog video output
from the internal color palette DAC. It should be shorted to the
ground plane.

Differential Host Clock In: These pins receive a differential
host clock from the external clock synthesizer. This clock is
used by all of the GMCH logic that is in the Host clock domain.
Memory domain clocks are also derived from this source.

Differential PCI Express* Graphics Clock In: These pins
receive a differential 100 MHz Serial Reference clock from the
external clock synthesizer. This clock is used to generate the
clocks necessary for the support of PCI Express.
