RTL8211C & RTL8211CL
Datasheet
The following figures show how different inductors affect the REG_OUT output waveform. The typical
waveform should look like Figure 12, which has a square waveform with a dip at the falling edge and the
rising edge. If the inductor is not carefully chosen, the waveform may look like Figure 13, where the
waveform looks like a distorted square. This will cause insufficient current supply and will undermine the
stability of the system at gigabit speed. Data in the following figures was measured at gigabit speed.
