Volts, Amps, and Watts: Recap
PCB design issues
- minimize capacitance for higher speed
- terminate transmission lines to reduce ringing
Chip inputs and outputs
- use DLLs to maximize I/O bandwidth
- use SelectI/O to interface with different standards
Power and thermal considerations
- use the sensing diode to manage chip temperature
- decouple the power supply well
Configuration
- configure faster with the SelectMAP mode
