Figure 51: 0.5 ns Delay Trace Simulation (Maximum Distance 2.5 Inches)
The GT-64260A to CPU calculation is the same as in the single GT-64260A and single CPU example.
Note
For multiple CPU configurations, a separate IBIS model must be used. For more information, contact your
local Field Application Engineer (FAE).
Tcycle > Toutput_delay(GT-64260A) + Tsetup(CPU) + Tdelay(fly_time) + Tclock_skew

Tdelay(fly_time) < 0.8 ns
For 200 ps delay for 1 inch, the maximum distance is 4 inches.

The fly time is measured from the GT-64260A reference point that was measured in
