3.5 ENHANCED PORT PROCESSOR SIGNAL DESCRIPTIONS
This section describes the Enhanced Port Processor signals.
The following notation is used to describe the signal type:
I
Input pin
O
B
Output pin
Bidirectional Input/Output pin
The signal description also includes the type of buffer used for the particular signal:
PECL
STI
PECL are Pseudo-ECL (positive voltage ECL) compatible signals.
STI is a very high-speed asynchronous communications protocol used to connect devices
that may be 1 to 15 meters apart.
HSTL
All HSTL specifications are consistent with EIA/JEDEC Standard, EIA/JESD8-6 High
Speed Transceivers Logic (HSTL): A 1.5V Output Buffer Supply Voltage based Interface
Standard for Digital Integrated Circuits”, dated 8/95. Refer to these specifications for more
information.
CMOS
The CMOS Buffers are either 3.3 V compatible or 2.5 V Low Voltage TTL compatible
signals, as noted.
