High-Speed Outputs
The high-speed output buffers, DATAOUT and CLKOUT , can be terminated as either LVDS or LVPECL outputs.
If used as LVDS outputs, the transmission lines should be routed with 100 differential impedance and need to be
terminated at the receive end with a 100 resistor across the differential pair. If used as LVPECL outputs the
transmission line should be 50 terminated, with 50 pull-down resistors near the receiving end. See Figure 4 and
Figure 5.
