GTL+ Front Side Bus Specifications
In most cases, termination resistors are not required as these are integrated into the
processor silicon. See
termination.
Valid high and low levels are determined by the input buffers by comparing with a
reference voltage called GTLREF.
reference voltage (GTLREF) should be generated on the system board using high
precision voltage divider circuits.
