SRC Clock Topology
The clock synthesizer provides one set of 100-MHz differential clock outputs. The differential
clocks are driven to the Intel

Pentium
®
M Processor and Embedded Intel

855GME Chipset with
Intel

6300ESB I/O Controller Hub for serial-ATA as shown in
.
The clock driver differential bus output structure is a Current Mode Current Steering output that
develops a clock signal by alternately steering a programmable constant current to the external
termination resistors Rt.
The recommended termination for the differential bus clock is a Shunt Source Termination. See
for an illustration of this terminology scheme. Parallel Rt resistors perform a dual
function, converting the current output of the clock driver to a voltage and matching the driver
output impedance to the transmission line. The series resistors Rs provide isolation from the clock
driver’s output parasitics which would otherwise appear in parallel with the termination resistor Rt.
The value of Rt should be 49
Ω
and Rs should be 33
Ω
. Simulations have shown that Rs values
above 33
Ω
provide no benefit to signal integrity but only degrade the edge rate.
