Recommended Termination for HCSL Outputs

Figure 13 is the recommended source termination for applications where the driver and receiver will be on a separate PCBs. This

termination is the standard for PCI Express™ and HCSL output types. All traces should be 50Ω impedance single-ended or 100Ω

differential. Figure 14 is the recommended termination for applications where a point-to-point connection can be used. A point-to-point

connection contains both the driver and the receiver on the same PCB. With a matched termination at the receiver, transmission-line

reflections will be minimized. In addition, a series resistor (Rs) at the driver offers flexibility and can help dampen unwanted reflections.

The optional resistor can range from 0Ω to 33Ω. All traces should be 50Ω impedance single-ended or 100Ω differential.

CML Termination

Figure 15 shows an example of the termination for a CML driver. In this example, the transmission line characteristic impedance is 50Ω.

The R1 and R2 50Ω matched load terminations are pulled up to VDDO. The matched loads are located close to the receiver.
