12.1 DC Electrical Specification

Mode Definitions


The mode bit, ODrainSys, is provided to select the characteristics of the pad ring.

When asserted, this mode bit tristates the PMOS pullup devices to select system interface output drivers. This mode is included to allow for multiprocessor systems to use a GTL-like open drain configuration with external load/termination resistors providing logic high levels.
