Intel® IXP42X Product Line of Network Processors and IXC1100 Control Plane Processor
3.0
Functional Signal Descriptions
Listed in the signal definition tables — starting at Table 6 “SDRAM Interface” on page 34 — are
pull-up an pull-down resistor recommendations that are required when the particular enabled
interface is not being used in the application. These external resistor requirements are only needed
if the particular model of Intel® IXP42X product line and IXC1100 control plane processors has
the particular interface enabled and the interface is not required in the application.
Warning:
All IXP42X product line and IXC1100 control plane processors I/O pins are not 5-V tolerant.
Disabled features, within the IXP42X product line and IXC1100 control plane processors, do not
require external resistors as the processor will have internal pull-up or pull-down resistors enabled
as part of the disabled interface.
Table 5 presents the legend for interpreting the Type field in the other tables in this section of the
document.
To determine which interfaces are not enabled within the IXP42X product line and IXC1100
control plane processors, see Table 3 on page 14.
