12.1 DC Electrical Specification

DC Input/Output Specifications


All processor output drivers are CMOS push-pull, and the signals swing between VccQ and Vss. In open drain mode, the gates of the PMOS pullup devices are disabled. Input-only pins include a disabled output buffer for implicit ESD protection.

Tables 12-2 and 12-3 describe the DC characteristics of the I/O signals for the HSTL and CMOS/TLL configurations.


NOTE: As the JEDEC Standard 8-x evolves, the HSTL specifications will also change, and the processor will remain compliant with these standards.
