Abstract
The limitations of current nominal 5 V interfaces are examined, and the requirements for interfaces between high-speed DRAMs and processors are outlined. Three solutions are described. One is a center-tap-terminated interface, the second uses Gunning transceiver logic, and the third relies on low-voltage differential signaling.<>
