DESCRIPTION

DBUS_CTL

Y26

O

None

Bus control. Controls signal-to-frame packets, transmits part of the operation code,
initiates data transfers, and terminates data transfers. This is a rambus signal logic (RSL)
signal (see Note 1).

I/O

None

Bus data. Signal lines for request, write-data, and read-data packets. The request packet
contains the address, operation codes, and other control information. These are RSL
signals (see Note 1).

DBUS_EN

T25

O

None

Bus enable. Controls signal-to-transfer column addresses for random-access
(nonsequential) transactions. This is an RSL signal (see Note 1).

DCCTRL

P24

I

None

Current control program. Connected to the current control resistor whose other terminal
is connected to the termination voltage.

DRX_CLK

V26

O

None

Receive clock. This signal is derived from DTX_CLK. This is an RSL signal (see Note 1).
It is connected directly to DTX_CLK in the TNETX4090.

DTX_CLK

V25

I

None

Transmit clock. This is an RSL signal (see Note 1). The primary internal clock is derived
from this signal.

DVREF

AA26

I

None

Reference voltage. Logic threshold reference voltage for RSL signals.

NOTE 1: RSL is a low-voltage swing, active-low signaling technology.
