Signal requirements
Use the information below to understand the data setup and hold requirements, and switching thresholds
for the ARM DSTREAM-ST unit.
Data setup and hold
The following figure and table show the setup and hold timing of the trace signals with respect to
TRACECLK.
Parameter

Thh (min)
Tsl (min)
Thl (min)
DSTREAM-ST supports DDR clocking mode. Data is output on each edge of the TRACECLK signal
and TRACECLK (max) <= 300MHz.
Switching thresholds
The DSTREAM-ST senses the target signaling reference voltage (VTRef) and automatically adjusts its
switching thresholds to VTRef/2. For example, on a 3.3V target system, the switching thresholds are set
to 1.65V.
