LVD Input characteristics
Each differential signal received by LVD interface receiver circuits shall have the following input characteristics 
when measured at the disc drive connector:
Steady state Low level input differential voltage = 0.030 V = < V
in
 = < 3.6 V (signal negation/logic 0)
 
Steady state High level input differential voltage = –3.6 V = < V
in
 = < –0.030 V (signal assertion/logic 1)
 
Differential voltage = +0.030 V minimum with common-mode voltage range 0.845 V = < V
cm
 = < 1.685 V.

General cable characteristics
To Minimize discontinuities and signal reflections, cables of different impedances should not be used in the 
same bus. Implementations may require trade-offs in shielding effectiveness, cable length, the number of 
loads, transfer rates, and cost to achieve satisfactory system operation. If shielded and unshielded cables are 
mixed within the same SCSI bus, the effect of impedance mismatch must be carefully considered. Proper 
impedance matching is especially important in order to maintain adequate margin at fast SCSI transfer rates.
10.7.1.2
Single-ended drivers/receivers
The maximum total cable length allowed with drives using single-ended I/O driver and receiver circuits 
depends on several factors. Table 21 lists the maximum lengths allowed for different configurations of drive 
usage. These values are from the SPI documents. All device I/O lines must have equal to or less than 25 pf 
capacitance to ground, measured at the beginning of the stub.
A stub length of no more than 0.1 meter (0.33 ft) is allowed off the mainline interconnection with any connected 
equipment. The stub length is measured from the transceiver to the connection to the mainline SCSI bus.
