Interfacing With Other Differential Signaling Levels

With on-chip termination to XCOREVSS, the differential reference clocks inputs are high-speed current

steering logic (HCSL)-compatible and DC-coupled.

Many other low voltage differential type outputs like low voltage differential signaling (LVDS) can be

used but may need to be AC-coupled due to the limited common mode input range allowed (100 to

400 mV) for DC-coupled connection.

LVPECL outputs can produce signal with too large amplitude and may need to be DC-biased at clock

driver output first, then followed with series attenuation resistor to reduce the amplitude, in addition to

AC-coupling.
