5.8 inches long. Another strobe set (e.g., SB_STB and SB_STB#) could be 4.2 inches long, and the data 
signals associated with those strobe signals (e.g., SBA[7:0]) can be 3.7 inches to 4.7 inches long. 
The strobe signals (AD_STB0, AD_STB0#, AD_STB1, AD_STB1#, SB_STB, and SB_STB#) act as 
clocks on the source-synchronous AGP interface. Therefore, special care must be taken when routing 
these signals. Because each strobe pair is truly a differential pair, the pair should be routed together. (For 
example, AD_STB0 and AD_STB0# should be routed next to each other.) The two strobes in a strobe 
pair should be routed on 5 mil traces, with at least 15 mils of space (1:3) between them. This pair should 
be separated from the rest of the AGP signals (and all other signals) by at least 20 mils (1:4). The strobe 
pair must be length-matched to less than ±0.1 inch. (That is, a strobe and its complement must be the 
same length, within 0.1 inch.)

Interfaces > 6 Inches and < 7.25 Inches 
Longer lines have more crosstalk. Therefore, to reduce skew, longer line lengths require a greater amount 
of spacing between traces. For line lengths greater than 6 inches and less than 7.25 inches, 1:4 routing is 
required for all data lines and strobes. For these designs, the line length mismatch must be less than 
±0.125 inch within each signal group (between all data signals and the strobe signals). 
For example, if a set of strobe signals (e.g., AD_STB0 and AD_STB0#) are 6.5 inches long, the data 
signals associated with those strobe signals (e.g., AD[15:0] and C/BE[2:0]#) can be 6.475 inches to 
6.625 inches long. Another strobe set (e.g., SB_STB and SB_STB#) could be 6.2 inches long, and the 
data signals associated with those strobe signals (e.g., SBA[7:0]) can be 6.075 inches to 6.325 inches 
long.
