Notes:
1. Rise and fall time ranges are guidelines over which the I/O has been characterized.
2. T
SKEW-SAMEEDGE
is the maximum skew within a clock forwarded group between any two signals or between any signal and its
forward clock, as measured at the package, with respect to the same clock edge.
T
SKEW-DIFFEDGE
is the maximum skew within a clock forwarded group between any two signals or between any signal and its
forward clock, as measured at the package, with respect to different clock edges.
3. Input SU and HD times are with respect to the appropriate Clock Forward Group input clock.
4. The synchronous signals include PROCRDY, CONNECT, and CLKFWDRST.
5. T
VAL
is RSTCLK rising edge to output valid for PROCRDY. Test Load is 25 pF.
6. T
SU
is setup of CONNECT/CLKFWDRST to rising edge of RSTCLK. T
HD
is hold of CONNECT/CLKFWDRST from rising edge of
RSTCLK.
