The above procedure is similar for undershoot after the undershoot waveform has been converted
to look like an overshoot. Undershoot events must be analyzed separately from overshoot events as
they are mutually exclusive.

Conformance Determination to Overshoot/Undershoot Specifications
The overshoot/undershoot specifications listed in the following tables specify the allowable
overshoot/undershoot for a single overshoot/undershoot event. However most systems will have
multiple overshoot and/or undershoot events that each have their own set of parameters (duration,
AF and magnitude). While each overshoot on its own may meet the overshoot specification, when
you add the total impact of all overshoot events, the system may fail. A guideline to ensure a
system passes the overshoot and undershoot specifications is shown below.

system passes the overshoot and undershoot specifications is shown below.
1. Ensure no signal ever exceeds V
CC
or -0.25 V OR
2. If only one overshoot/undershoot event magnitude occurs, ensure it meets the over/undershoot
specifications in the following tables OR
3. If multiple overshoots and/or multiple undershoots occur, measure the worst case pulse
duration for each magnitude and compare the results against the AF = 1 specifications. If all of
these worst case overshoot or undershoot events meet the specifications (measured time <
specifications) in the table (where AF=1), then the system passes.
