Multiple GT-64260As and a Single CPU System in Multi-CPU Mode
Note
In multi-GT mode, the ARTRY* signals setup time is 4.9 ns. This is ignored in the timing calculation
example, since most applications do not use the ARTRY*.
In this configuration, the signals are connected from the GT-64260A to the CPU in a ’T’ topology. See
Note
The GT-64260A in multi-GT mode is targeted to operate at 100 MHz.
