Voltage droop and the DSV of transmitted symbols
cause signal transitions to start from different voltage
levels. Because the transition time is finite, starting the
signal transition from different voltage levels causes
timing jitter. The time constant for an AC-coupled link
needs to be chosen to reduce droop and jitter to an
acceptable level.
The RC network for an AC-coupled link consists of the
LVDS receiver termination resistor (R
output resistor (R
itors (C). The RC time constant for two equal-value
series capacitors is (C x (R
RC time constant for four equal-value series capacitors
is (C x (R

driver design, with a minimum value of 78Ω (see the DC
Electrical Characteristics table). This leaves the capaci-
tor selection to change the system time constant.
In the following example, the capacitor value for a
droop of 2% is calculated. Jitter due to this droop is
then calculated assuming a 1ns transition time:
