The maximum value is specified to be at least (V / 4) + V + (V / 2)
TX-CM-ACp-p
Measured from the reference clock edge to the center of the output eye. This specification must be met across specified
voltage and temperature ranges for a single component. Drift rate of change is significantly below the tracking capability of
the receiver.

Intel® SMI Differential Receiver Input Specifications
The receiver definition starts from the input pin of the receiver end package and
therefore includes the package and the receiver end device.
2.5.4.3.1
Receiver Input Compliance Eye Specification
Following the specification of the transmitter, the receiver is specified in terms of the
minimum input eye height that must be maintained at the input to the receiver, and
under which the receiver must function at the specified data rates. In addition to eye
height, there are timing specifications that must also be met for both the data lanes
and the forwarded clock.
The receiver eye is referenced to VSS and all input terminations at the receiver must be
referenced to VSS. This input eye must be maintained for the entire duration of the RX
test pattern. An appropriate average transmitter UI must be used as the interval for
