10.3.4 Differential Input Cross Point Voltage

To guarantee tight setup and hold times as well as output skew parameters with respect to clock and strobe, each cross point voltage of differential input signals (CK, CK and DQS, DQS) must meet the requirements in below table. The differential input cross point voltage VIX is measured from the actual cross point of true and complement signal to the mid level between of VDD and VSS.
