Voltage-Referenced I/O Standard Termination
Voltage-referenced I/O standards require an input reference voltage (V
REF
) and a
termination voltage (V
TT
). The reference voltage of the receiving device tracks the
termination voltage of the transmitting device, as shown in Figure 6–5 and Figure 6–6.
