AGTL+ Front Side Bus Specifications
Routing topology recommendations are in the appropriate platform design guide. 
Termination resistors are not required for most AGTL+ signals because they 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.
 lists the GTLREF specifications. GTLREF should be generated on the system 
board using high-precision voltage divider circuits. For more details on platform design, 
see the appropriate platform design guide.
Notes:
1.
The tolerances for this specification have been stated generically to enable system designers to calculate 
the minimum values across the range of V
TT
.
2.
GTLREF is generated from V
TT
 on the baseboard by a voltage divider of 1% resistors.
3.
R
TT
 is the on-die termination resistance measured at V
TT
/2 of the AGTL+ output driver.
4.
R
L
 is the on-die termination resistance for improved noise margin and signal integrity.
5.
The COMP0 resistor is provided by the baseboard with 1% resistors. See the appropriate platform design 
guide for implementation details.
6.
The V
TT
 referred to in these specifications refers to instantaneous V
TT
.
