System Signal Simulations
Many scenarios have been simulated to generate a set of GTL+ processor system bus layout
guidelines, which are available in the Mobile Coppermine Processor GTL+ System Bus Layout
Guideline. Systems must be simulated using the IBIS model to determine if they are compliant
with this specification.
4.1
System Bus Clock (BCLK) and PICCLK AC Signal Quality
Specifications
Table 24 and Figure 17 show the signal quality for the system bus clock (BCLK) signal, and
Table 25 and Figure 17 show the signal quality for the APIC bus clock (PICCLK) signal at the
processor. BCLK and PICCLK are 2.5V clocks.

NOTES:
1.
On the rising edge of BCLK, there must be a minimum overshoot to 2.0V. The clock must rise monotonically between
VIL,BCLK and 2.0V, and fall monotonically between VIH,BCLK and VIL, BCLK.
2.
These specifications apply only when BCLK is running, see Table 13 for the DC specifications for when BCLK is stopped.
BCLK may not be above VIH,BCLK,max or below VIL,BCLK,min for more than 50% of the clock cycle.
3.
The rising and falling edge ringback voltage specified is the minimum (rising) or maximum (falling) absolute voltage the
BCLK signal can go to after passing the VIH,BCLK (rising) or VIL,BCLK (falling) voltage limits.
