Hey, I've got to thank you for this...

It's the funniest thing I've read in days, even including the latest Onion.

And oh, hate to tell you, but Intel has dumped Xscale.

John

I love the idea hinted at of base 3 signalling !

Graham

Is the latest Monahan a new version of XScale?

good to know. thanks.

You are still under the impression that this is a Web-based forum and that everyone sees what you see on Google Groups.

Observe how others post and EMULATE. http://66.102.9.104/search?q=cache:SXIajvWUVHAJ:groups.google.com/support/bin/answer.py=answer=12348+zzz+remove-*-*-*-irrelevant+Summarize-what-*-*-*-*-*+zz-zz+Usenet+click-Reply+BOTTOM+*-*-reply-appears-*-*-*-before-the-original-*-*

CML is the future.

Did you write back and tell them that 5V signals would be standard HVDS and that the low voltage version uses 3.3V?

...and 1000 managers.

Sorry, what is a CML?

Marvell is a better company in the Valley, at least as far as stock is concerned. XScale is better off with Marvell!

Current Mode Logic... PECL/ECL without the followers.

And always will be. It's fine for small-scale stuff, but nobody is going to make FPGAs or big ASICs in CML.

I wonder why nobody makes a fast comparator with LVDS outputs?

John

I have... a big WiFi chip at 5GHz... CML until we got down to ~500MHz, due to the 2.7V worst-case supply.

You've answered your own question... differential-to-LVDS... see Fairchild site.

...Jim Thompson

The Fairchild site is pretty big, actually. If you mean "use an lvds-lvds buffer as a comparator" there's really no point. I use lvds receivers as comparators, but with a typical offset in the 100 mv range, they're a bit sloppy for a lot of apps.
