The Ready LED Out signal is designed to pull down the cathode of an LED. The anode is attached to the
proper +3.3 volt supply through an appropriate current limiting resistor. The LED and the current limiting resis-
tor are external to the drive. See Table 25 for the output characteristics of the LED drive signals.

Eye masks overview
The eye masks are graphical representations of the voltage and time limits on the signal at the compliance
point. The time values between X1 and (1 - X1) cover all but 10
of the total jitter population has a range of ± 7 standard deviations.
