9.6.2 Differential PECL output
The serial PECL output signal voltage characteristics are provided in Table 26. The outputs are not AC coupled
in order to deliver maximum signal without rise and fall time degradation. You must AC couple the receiver to
isolate potentially different DC characteristics of the outputs and the receiver.
Figure 18 provides the data output valid eye diagram relative to the bit cell time.

9.6.3 Differential PECL input
The serial PECL input signal voltage characteristics are provided in Table 27.
Figure 19 provides the data valid eye diagram for typical and minimum requirements to recover data at the
specified interface error rate. The inputs are AC coupled on the drive.
