Seagate ST336807FC manual LED driver signals, LED drive signal, Differential Pecl output

9.6.2LED driver signals

Fault and Active LED signals are located in the FC-SCA connector (J1) and through the indicator connector (J6). See Table 34 for the output characteristics of the LED drive signals.

Table 34:	LED drive signal
State		Current drive available	Output voltage
LED off, high		0 < IOH < 100µA
LED on, low		IOL < -30 mA	0 < VOL < 0.8V

9.6.3Differential PECL output

The serial PECL output signal voltage characteristics are provided in Table 35. The outputs are not AC coupled in order to deliver maximum signal without rise and fall time degradation. You must AC couple the receiver to isolate potentially different DC characteristics of the outputs and the receiver.
