2.13 GTL+ FSB Specifications
Termination resistors are not required for most GTL+ signals, as these are integrated into the
processor silicon.Valid high and low levels are determined by the input buffers which compare a
signal’s voltage with a reference voltage called GTLREF. Table 2-18 lists the GTLREF
specifications. The GTL+ reference voltage (GTLREF) should be generated on the system board
using high precision voltage divider circuits.

2. The tolerances for this specification have been stated generically to enable the system designer to calculate the minimum
and maximum values across the range of V

.
3. GTLREF should be generated from V

5. The Intel
®
915G/915GV/915P and 910GL Express chipset platforms use a pull-up resistor of 100 Ω and a pull-down resistor
of 210 Ω. Contact your Intel representative for further details and documentation.
