where:
a) f is the signal frequency in hertz.
The transmission magnitude response of the TCTF in dB is given by the following equation for 3.0 Gbps:

a) f is the signal frequency in hertz.
The TCTF is used to specify the requirements on transmitters that may or may not incorporate
Compliance with the TCTF test load requirement is verified by measuring the signal produced by the transmit- ter through a physical compliance interconnect attached to the transmitter.
Compliance with the
For both test load cases, the transmitter delivers the output voltages and timing listed in table 18 at the desig- nated compliance points. The default mask is IR for
