Table 2 directly should be enough to fulfill compliance requirements. It is possible to try to increase termination as a last resort. Note: Although it is possible to try to increase termination as a last resort, NVIDIA does not recommend adjusting termination values. NVIDIA cautions that if the TERM_RANGE_ADJ is adjusted, it may result in an impedance mismatch on the board and further attention might be needed. -
Page 12: Software Verification
Table 2. Software Verification NVIDIA strongly recommends a functional check. Connect the DUT to USB hosts and devices to perform a functional check. To check if software has implemented the tuned offset correctly, load new software with offset included into another DUT and make sure that: HS_CURR_LEVEL = USB_CALIB fuse + tuned offset steps. -
