A designer using components other than those listed previously must evaluate additional combinations of 
driver and receiver.

1.  All times in nanoseconds. 
2.  Numbers in table are for reference only. These timing parameters are subject to change. Please check the 
appropriate component documentation for the valid timing parameter values. 
3. T
SU_MIN
 = 1.9 ns assumes the Intel 82820 MCH sees a minimum edge rate equal to 0.3 V/ns.  
4.  The Pentium III processor substrate’s nominal impedance is set to 65 
Ω
 ± 15%. Future Pentium III processor 
substrates may be set at 60 
Ω
 ± 15%. 
Table 51 lists the AGTL+ component timings of the processors and Intel
 
82820 MCH defined at the pins. 
These timings are for reference only.  
Table 52 gives an example AGTL+ initial maximum flight time and Table 53 contains an example 
minimum flight time calculation for a 133 MHz, 2-way Pentium III processor/Intel 820E chipset system 
bus. Note that assumed values for clock skew and clock jitter were used. Clock skew and clock jitter 
values depend on the clock components and distribution method chosen for a particular design and must 
be budgeted into the initial timing equations as appropriate for each design. 
Intel highly recommends adding margin, as shown in the M
ADJ
 column, to offset the degradation caused 
by SSO push-out and other multi-bit switching effects. The Recommended T
FLT_MAX
 column contains the 
recommended maximum flight time after incorporating the M
ADJ
 value. If the edge rate, ringback, and 
monotonicity requirements are not met, flight time correction must first be performed as documented in 
the Intel
®
 Pentium

II Processor Developer’s Manual, with the additional requirements noted in Section 
3.5. The commonly used “textbook” equations used to calculate the expected signal propagation rate of a 
board are included in Section 3.2. 
Simulation and control of baseboard design parameters can ensure that the signal quality and maximum 
and minimum flight times are met. Baseboard propagation speed is highly dependent on the transmission 
line geometry configuration (stripline vs. microstrip), dielectric constant, and loading. This layout 
guideline includes high-speed baseboard design practices that may improve the amount of timing and 
signal quality margin. The magnitude of M
ADJ 
is highly dependent on the baseboard design 
implementation (stack-up, decoupling, layout, routing, reference planes, etc.) and must be characterized 
and budgeted appropriately for each design.
