T
Minimum eye width at pin for clk and data
RX-eye-pin
QPI BER
Bit Error Rate per lane valid for 4.8 and 6.4 GT/s

Notes:
1.
Parameter value at 1/4 Intel
2.
Parameter value at full Intel
3.
The termination small signal resistance; tolerance over the entire signalling voltage range shall not exceed ±5 ohms with
regard to the average of the values measured in the high output voltage state and the low output voltage state for that pin.
4.
HVM guaranteed error free value for stressed PRBS signaling across PVT. Link BER is the dominant spec of which eye
dimensions are only one factor, and improving another factor could compensate for eye height or width.
5.
HVM guaranteed error free value for stressed '1010 signaling across PVT. Link BER is the dominant spec of which eye
dimensions are only one factor, and improving another factor could compensate for eye height or width.
