NOTES: 13. Some of the timing symbols in this table are not currently listed with EIA or JEDEC standards for semiconductor symbology but are

consistent with the PCI Local-Bus Specification, Revision 2.0.

14. Minimum times are measured with a 0-pF equivalent load; maximum times are measured with a 50-pF equivalent load. Actual test

capacitance may vary, but results should be correlated to these specifications.

15. PREQ and PGNT are point-to-point signals and have different output valid delay and input setup times than do bused signals. PGNT

has a setup time of 10 ns; PREQ has a setup time of 12 ns. All other signals are bused.

15. PREQ and PGNT are point-to-point signals and have different output valid delay and input setup times than do bused signals. PGNT

has a setup time of 10 ns; PREQ has a setup time of 12 ns. All other signals are bused.

16. As a requirement for frame transmission /reception, the minimum PCLK frequency varies with network speed. The clock can only

be stopped in a low state.

17. Rise and fall times are specified in terms of the edge rate measured in V/ns. This slew rate must be met across the minimum

peak-to-peak portion of the clock waveform.
