NOTES: 15. 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.

16. 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.

17. 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.

17. 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.

18. As a requirement for frame transmission /reception, the minimum PCLK frequency varies with network speed. The clock may be

stopped only in a low state.

19. 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.
