Notes:
1. 1300 mVpp swing is recommended when CPU to CPU or CPU to IOH length is within 2” of PDG max trace
length. Note that default value is 1200 mVpp.
2. Measure AC CM noise at the TX and decimate to its spectral components. For all spectral components above
3.2 GHz, apply the attenuation of the channel at the appropriate frequency. If the resultant AC CM at the
receiver is met after taking out the appropriate spectral components meets the RX AC CM spec then we can
allow the transmitter AC CM noise to pass.
3. Measured with neighboring lines being quiet and the remaining lines toggling PRBS patterns.
4. DC CM can be relaxed to 0.20 and 0.30 Vdiffp-p swing if RX has wide DC common mode range.
5. Based on transmitting a PRBS pattern.
