1. Functionally, this pin is an output or an input, but structurally it is an I/O because it
either sample configuration input during reset, is a muxed pin, or has other manufacturing
test functions. This pin will therefore be described as an I/O for boundary scan.
2. This output is actively driven during reset rather than being tri-stated during reset.
3. Must be grounded through a 240 ohms resistor.
4. This pin is a reset configuration pin. It has a weak (~20 kΩ) internal pull-up P-FET that
is enabled only when the processor is in its reset state. This pull-up is designed such that
it can be overpowered by an external 4.7 kΩ resistor. However, if the signal is intended to
be high after reset, and if there is any device on the net that might pull down the value of
the net at reset, a pull-up or active driver is needed.
5. Pin must NOT be pulled down during power-on reset. This pin may be pulled up,
driven high, or if there are any externally connected devices, left in tristate. If this pin is
connected to a device that pulls down during reset, an external pull-up is required to drive
this pin to a safe state during reset.
6. Recommend that a weak pull-up resistor (2-10 kΩ) be placed on this pin to the
respective power supply.
7. This pin is an open-drain signal.
8. Recommend that a weak pull-up resistor (1 kΩ) be placed on this pin to the respective
power supply.
9. This pin has a weak (~20 kΩ) internal pull-up P-FET that is always enabled.
10. These are test signals for factory use only and must be pulled up (100Ω to 1-kΩ) to
the respective power supply for normal operation.
11. This pin requires a 200Ω ± 1% pull-up to respective power-supply.
QorIQ LS1012A Data Sheet, Rev. 2, 01/2019
NXP Semiconductors
23
Pin assignments
14. This pin requires an external 1-kΩ pull-down resistor to prevent PHY from seeing a
valid Transmit Enable before it is actively driven.
15. These pins must be pulled to ground (GND).
16. This pin requires a 698Ω ± 1% pull-up to respective power-supply.
17. These pins should be tied to ground if the diode is not utilized for temperature
monitoring.
19. PORESET_B should be asserted zero during the JTAG Boundary scan operation, and
is required to be controllable on board.
20. To use JTAG interface this pin must be pulled up by 2K-10K Ohms to O2VDD, else
pull to GND.
21. This pin will not be tested using JTAG Boundary scan operation.
22. While PORESET_B is asserted, this pin must be pulled up to O2VDD through a
weak pull-up resistor (4.7 Kohm) and SD card detect signal should be tri-stated.
23. In external clock oscillator mode, cfg_eng_use and cfg_eng_use2 power-on-reset
configuration pins should be pulled high.
24. This pin should be tied to GND in external clock oscillator mode.
26. In normal operation, this pin must be pulled high to O2VDD with 4.7 Kohm.
27. This pin should be grounded through a 200 Ohm ± 1% 100ppm/°C precision resistor.
28. Recommend that a weak pull-up resistor (10-20 kΩ) be placed on this pin to the
respective power supply.
29. Recommend that a weak pull-up resistor (10-100 kΩ) be placed on this pin to the
respective power supply.
30. RESET_REQ_B is multiplexed on this pin in the LS1012A Rev 2.0 only.
31. Config signal cfg_sysclk_sel/QSPI_A_CS0 should be pulled down during reset when
LS1012A is clocked from external oscillator. Most of the flash devices enter into debug
mode if CS is pulled low during reset. Hence, pull down resistance connected at
cfg_sysclk_sel pin should be isolated from chip select signal of flash device during reset
cycle.

Notes:
1. Functional operating conditions are given in Recommended operating conditions. Absolute maximum ratings are stress
ratings only, and functional operation at the maximums is not guaranteed. Stresses beyond those listed may affect device
reliability or cause permanent damage to the device.
2. Caution: (G1, O1, O2, E)VIN, USB_HVIN, USB_SVIN, and D1_MVREF must not exceed Max DC V_input range. This limit
may be exceeded for a maximum of 20 ms during power-on reset and power-down sequences.
3. Caution: (G1, O1, O2, E)VIN, USB_HVIN, USB_SVIN, and D1_MVREF may overshoot/undershoot to a voltage and for a
maximum duration as shown in Figure 7.
4. Transceiver supply for USBPHY.
5. Analog and Digital HS supply for USBPHY.
6. Analog and Digital SS supply for USBPHY.
7. Exposing device to Absolute Maximum Ratings conditions for long periods of time may affect reliability or cause permanent
damage
8. Typical DDR interface uses ODT enabled mode. For test purposes with ODT off mode, simulation should be done first so
as to ensure that the overshoot signal level at the input pin does not exceed G1VDD by more than 10%. The Overshoot/
Undershoot period should comply with JEDEC standards

The core and platform voltages must always be provided at nominal 0.9 V. See Table 4
for the actual recommended core voltage. The voltage to the processor interface I/Os is
provided through separate sets of supply pins and must be provided at the voltages shown
in Table 4. The input voltage threshold scales with respect to the associated I/O supply
voltage. On VDD, EVDD based receivers are simple CMOS I/O circuits and satisfy
appropriate LVCMOS type specifications. The DDR SDRAM interface uses differential
receivers referenced by the externally supplied MVREFn signal (nominally set to
G1VDD/2) as is appropriate for the electrical signaling standard. The DDR DQS receivers
cannot be operated in a single-ended fashion. The complement signal must be properly
driven and cannot be grounded.

3.2 Power up sequencing
The power up sequencing requires that the power rails be applied in a specific sequence
in order to ensure proper device operation. The requirements for power up are as follows:
1. O1VDD, O2VDD, EVDD, G1VDD, USB_HVDD, XOSC_OVDD, AVDD_PLAT,
AVDD_CGA1, AVDD_REF, AVDD_SD1_PLL1, AVDD_SD1_PLL2, X1VDD, TH_VDD.
• The PORESET_B input must be driven asserted and held during this step.
2. VDD, XOSC_VDD, S1VDD, USB_SDVDD, USB_SVDD.
• The 3.3 V (USB_HVDD) in Step 1 and 0.9 V (USB_SDVDD and USB_SVDD) in
Step 2 supplies can power up in any sequence provided all these USB supplies
ramp up within 95 ms with respect to each other.
QorIQ LS1012A Data Sheet, Rev. 2, 01/2019
30
NXP Semiconductors
Electrical characteristics
All supplies must be at their stable values within 75 ms.
Items on the same line have no ordering requirement with respect to one another. Items
on separate lines must be ordered sequentially such that voltage rails on a previous step
must reach 90% of their value before the voltage rails on the current step reach 10% of
theirs.
Negate the PORESET_B input when the required assertion/hold time meets the
specifications listed in Table 12.
NOTE
The ramp rate requirements should meet the parameters listed
in Table 11.
Warning
Only 300,000 POR cycles are permitted per lifetime of a
device. Note that this value is based on design estimates and is
preliminary.
For the secure boot fuse programming, use the following steps:
1. After negation of PORESET_B, drive TA_PROG_SFP = 1.8 V after a required
minimum delay per Table 7.
2. After fuse programming is complete, it is required to return TA_PROG_SFP = GND
before the system is power cycled (PORESET_B assertion) or powered down (VDD
ramp down) per the required timing specified in Table 7. See Security fuse processor
for additional details.
Warning
No activity other than that required for secure boot fuse
programming is permitted while TA_PROG_SFP is driven
to any voltage above GND, including the reading of the
fuse block. The reading of the fuse block may only occur
while TA_PROG_SFP = GND.

Notes:
1. Delay required from the deassertion of PORESET_B to driving TA_PROG_SFP ramp up. Delay measured from
PORESET_B deassertion at 90% O1VDD to 10% TA_PROG_SFP ramp up.
2. Delay required from fuse programming completion to TA_PROG_SFP ramp down start. Fuse programming must complete
while TA_PROG_SFP is stable at 1.8 V. No activity other than that required for secure boot fuse programming is permitted
while TA_PROG_SFP is driven to any voltage above GND, including the reading of the fuse block. The reading of the fuse
block may only occur while TA_PROG_SFP = GND. After fuse programming is complete, it is required to return
TA_PROG_SFP = GND.
3. Delay required from TA_PROG_SFP ramp-down complete to VDD ramp-down start. TA_PROG_SFP must be grounded to
minimum 10% TA_PROG_SFP before VDD reaches 90% VDD.
4. Delay required from TA_PROG_SFP ramp-down complete to PORESET_B assertion. TA_PROG_SFP must be grounded
to minimum 10% TA_PROG_SFP before PORESET_B assertion reaches 90% O1VDD.
5. Only six secure boot fuse programming events are permitted per lifetime of a device.
3.3 Power-down requirements
The power-down cycle must complete such that power supply values are below 0.4 V
before a new power-up cycle can be started.
QorIQ LS1012A Data Sheet, Rev. 2, 01/2019

NXP Semiconductors
Electrical characteristics
If performing secure boot fuse programming per the requirements in Power up
sequencing, it is required that TA_PROG_SFP = GND before the system is power cycled
(PORESET_B assertion) or powered down (VDD ramp down) per the required timing
specified in Power up sequencing.

4. The total power numbers of X1VDD is dependent on customer application use case. This table lists all the SerDes
configurations possible for the device. To get the X1VDD power numbers, the user should add the combined lanes to match to
the total SerDes lanes used, not simply multiply the power numbers by the number of lanes.
5. GPIOs are supported on O1VDD, O2VDD, and EVDD power rails.
6. The maximum power requirement is during programming. No active power beyond leakage levels should be drawn and the
supply must be grounded when not programming.
7. When combination of SerDes-based protocols (PCI Express, SGMII, or SATA) are used, the X1VDD power obtained by
adding the power numbers reported in the separate rows of this table for the individual protocols may be more than the actual
power consumption. The X1VDD power consumption will not exceed 182 mW (typical) for the configuration PCI Express x1 5

3.6 Power-on ramp rate

4. The system/board must be designed to ensure the input requirement to the device is achieved. Proper device operation is
guaranteed for inputs meeting this requirement by design, simulation, characterization, or functional testing.
3.8 Input clocks
There are two clocking modes supported on the LS1012A processor:
1. Using a 25MHz on board crystal also called Crystal based clocking.
This requires a 25 MHz crystal onboard which provides a 25 MHz sinusoidal input to
the SoC (EXTAL, XTAL) I/O's.
2. Using a clock source which generates 25MHz single-ended square wave.
This requires a 25 MHz clock source onboard which provides a 25 MHz square wave
input to the SoC (EXTAL) I/O. Connect XTAL to ground.
The tables below list the input specifications for crystals and external clock oscillator.

Notes
1. Frequency tolerance is a function of total capacitance loading the crystal. This total load capacitance includes the load
capacitors as well as the capacitive load of the board and device pins. To maintain a desired frequency tolerance, the load
capacitance specified by the crystal manufacturer may need to be adjusted to accommodate these stray capacitances.
2. To maintain the required system frequency tolerance, it is necessary to select a crystal with an appropriate initial frequency
tolerance as well as low frequency variation across temperature and frequency aging. The frequency tolerance is the
summation of initial frequency tolerance, frequency variation across temperature and frequency variation due to ageing.
3. To minimize the impact of capacitance variation across temperature, a load capacitor with zero drift across temperature
(for example, NP0 ceramic capacitors) may be necessary.
4. The power sequencing requirements must be followed for proper startup operation.

3.9 DDR3L SDRAM controller
This section describes the DC and AC electrical specifications for the DDR3L SDRAM
controller interface. Note that the required G1VDD(typ) voltage is 1.35 V when
interfacing to DDR3L SDRAM.

Notes:
1. G1VDD is expected to be within 50 mV of the DRAM's voltage supply at all times. The DRAM's and memory controller's
voltage supply may or may not be from the same source.
2. MVREFn is expected to be equal to 0.5 x G1VDD and to track G1VDD DC variations as measured at the receiver. Peak-topeak noise on MVREFn may not exceed the MVREFn DC level by more than ± 1% of G1VDD (that is, ± 13.5 mV).
3. VTT is not applied directly to the device. It is the supply to which far end signal termination is made, and it is expected to be
equal to MVREFn with a min value of MVREFn - 0.04 and a max value of MVREFn + 0.04. VTT should track variations in the
DC level of MVREFn.
4. The voltage regulator for MVREFn must meet the specifications stated in Table 17.
5. Input capacitance load for DQ, DQS, and DQS_B are available in the IBIS models.
6. Refer to the IBIS model for the complete output IV curve characteristics.
7. Output leakage is measured with all outputs disabled, 0 V ≤ VOUT ≤ G1VDD.
8. For recommended operating conditions, see Table 4.

1. tCISKEW represents the total amount of skew consumed by the controller between MDQS[n] and any corresponding bit that
will be captured with MDQS[n]. This should be subtracted from the total timing budget.
2. The amount of skew that can be tolerated from MDQS to a corresponding MDQ signal is called tDISKEW. This can be
determined by the following equation: tDISKEW = ±(T ÷ 4 - abs(tCISKEW)) where T is the clock period and abs(tCISKEW) is the
absolute value of tCISKEW.
3. For recommended operating conditions, see Table 4.

1. The symbols used for timing specifications follow the pattern of t(first two letters of functional block)(signal)(state) (reference)(state) for
inputs and t(first two letters of functional block)(reference)(state)(signal)(state) for outputs. Output hold time can be read as DDR timing (DD)
from the rising or falling edge of the reference clock (KH or KL) until the output went invalid (AX or DX). For example, tDDKHAS

symbolizes DDR timing (DD) for the time tMCK memory clock reference (K) goes from the high (H) state until outputs (A) are
setup (S) or output valid time. Also, tDDKLDX symbolizes DDR timing (DD) for the time tMCK memory clock reference (K)
goes low (L) until data outputs (D) are invalid (X) or data output hold time.
2. All MCK/MCK_B and MDQS/MDQS_B referenced measurements are made from the crossing of the two signals.
3. ADDR/CMD includes all DDR SDRAM output signals except MCK/MCK_B, MCS_B, and MDQ/MDM/MDQS.
4. Note that tDDKHMH follows the symbol conventions described in Note 1. For example, tDDKHMH describes the DDR timing
(DD) from the rising edge of the MCK[n] clock (KH) until the MDQS signal is valid (MH).
5. This value can be determined by the maximum possible skew between a data strobe (MDQS) and any corresponding bit of
data (MDQ), or data mask (MDM). The data strobe should be centered inside of the data eye at the pins of the
microprocessor.
6. For recommended operating conditions, see Table 4.
NOTE
For the ADDR/CMD/CNTL setup and hold specifications in
Table 19, it is assumed that memory clock is delayed by 1/2
applied cycle.

Notes:
1. The symbols used for timing specifications herein follow the pattern of t(first two letters of functional block)(signal)(state) (reference)(state)
for inputs and (first two letters of functional block)(reference)(state)(signal)(state) for outputs. For example, tSHKHOX symbolizes eSDHC highspeed mode device timing (SH) clock reference (K) going to the high (H) state, with respect to the output (O) reaching the
invalid state (X) or output hold time. Note that in general, the clock reference symbol is based on five letters representing the
clock of a particular functional. For rise and fall times, the latter convention is used with the appropriate letter: R (rise) or F
(fall).
2. In the full-speed mode, the clock frequency value can be 0-25MHz for an SD/SDIO card and 0-26MHz for an eMMC
device. In the high-speed mode, the clock frequency value can be 0-50MHz for an SD/SDIO card and 0-52MHz for an eMMC
device .
3. For any high-speed or default speed mode SD card, the one-way board-routing delay between host and card, on
SDHC_CLK, SDHC_CMD, and SDHC_DATx should not exceed 1.5ns.
4. CCARD ≤ 10 pF, (1 card), and CL = CBUS + CHOST + CCARD ≤ 40 pF.
5. The parameter values apply to both the full-speed and the high-speed modes.
6. Th AC timing specifications are based on the recommended operating conditions with O1/O2VDD=1.8 V and EVDD= 3.3 V.

Notes:
1. In general, the clock reference symbol representation for this section is based on the symbols RGT to represent RGMII
timing. Note also that the notation for rise (R) and fall (F) times follows the clock symbol that is being represented. For
symbols representing skews, the subscript is skew (SK) followed by the clock that is being skewed (RGT).
2. This implies that the PC board design requires clocks to be routed such that an additional trace delay greater than 1.5 ns
is added to the associated clock signal. Many PHY vendors already incorporate the necessary delay inside their chip. If so,
additional PCB delay is probably not needed.
3. For 10 and 100 Mbps, tRGT scales to 400 ns ± 40 ns and 40 ns ± 4 ns, respectively.
4. Duty cycle may be stretched/shrunk during speed changes or while transitioning to a received packet's clock domains as
long as the minimum duty cycle is not violated and stretching occurs for no more than three tRGT of the lowest speed
transitioned between.

inputs and t(first two letters of functional block)(reference)(state)(signal)(state) for outputs. For example, tMDKHDX symbolizes management
data timing (MD) for the time tMDC from clock reference (K) high (H) until data outputs (D) are invalid (X) or data hold time.
Also, tMDDVKH symbolizes management data timing (MD) with respect to the time data input signals (D) reaching the valid
state (V) relative to the tMDC clock reference (K) going to the high (H) state or setup time.
2. tenet_clk is the Ethernet clock period (4ns).

NOTE:
1. The symbols for timing specifications follow the pattern of t(First two letters of functional block)(signal)(state) (reference)(state) for inputs
and t(First two letters of functional block)(reference)(state)(signal)(state) for outputs. For example, tUSIXKH symbolizes USB timing (US) for the
input (I) to go invalid (X) with respect to the time the USB clock reference (K) goes high (H). Also, tUSKHOX symbolizes USB
timing (US) for the USB clock reference (K) to go high (H) with respect to the output (O) going invalid (X) or output hold time.
2. All timings are with reference to the USB clock.
4. Input timings are measured at the pin.
5. For active/float timing measurements, the high impedance or off state is defined to be when the total current delivered
through the component pin is less than or equal to that of the leakage current specification.
6. When switching the data pins from outputs to inputs using the pin, the output timings will be violated on that cycle because
the output buffers are tristated asynchronously. This should not be a problem, because the PHY should not be functionally
looking at these signals on that cycle as per ULPI specifications.
7. For recommended operating conditions, Table 4.

3.19 High-speed serial interfaces (HSSI)
The chip features a Serializer/Deserializer (SerDes) interface to be used for high-speed
serial interconnect applications. The SerDes interface can be used for PCI Express,
SGMII and Serial ATA (SATA) data transfers.
This section describes the common portion of SerDes DC electrical specifications: the
DC requirement for SerDes reference clocks. The SerDes data lane's transmitter (Tx) and
receiver (Rx) reference circuits are also described.
3.19.1 Signal terms definition
The SerDes utilizes differential signaling to transfer data across the serial link. This
section defines terms used in the description and specification of differential signals.
The figure shows how the signals are defined. For illustration purposes only, one SerDes
lane is used in the description. Figure 27 shows the waveform for either a transmitter
output (SD_TXn_P and SD_TXn_N) or a receiver input (SD_RXn_P and SD_RXn_N).
Each signal swings between A volts and B volts where A > B.

Figure 27. Differential voltage definitions for transmitter or receiver
Using this waveform, the definitions are as shown in the following list. To simplify the
illustration, the definitions assume that the SerDes transmitter and receiver operate in a
fully symmetrical differential signaling environment:
Single-Ended Swing
The transmitter output signals and the receiver input signals SD_TXn_P, SD_TXn_N,
SD_RXn_P and SD_RXn_N each have a peak-to-peak swing of A - B volts. This is
also referred as each signal wire's single-ended swing.
Differential Output Voltage,VOD(or Differential Output Swing):
The differential output voltage (or swing) of the transmitter,V OD, is defined as the
difference of the two complimentary output voltages: VSD_TXn_P - VSD_TXn_N. The
VOD value can be either positive or negative.
Differential Input Voltage, V ID (or Differential Input Swing):
The differential input voltage (or swing) of the receiver, VID, is defined as the
difference of the two complimentary input voltages: VSD_RXn_P - VSD_RXn_N. The VID
value can be either positive or negative.
Differential Peak Voltage,VDIFFp
The peak value of the differential transmitter output signal or the differential receiver
input signal is defined as the differential peak voltage, V DIFFp = |A - B| volts.
Differential Peak-to-Peak, V DIFFp-p
Since the differential output signal of the transmitter and the differential input signal of
the receiver each range from A - B to -(A - B) volts, the peak-to-peak value of the
differential transmitter output signal or the differential receiver input signal is defined
as differential peak-to-peak voltage, V DIFFp-p = 2 x VDIFFp = 2 x |(A - B)| volts, which
is twice the differential swing in amplitude, or twice of the differential peak. For
example, the output differential peak-peak voltage can also be calculated as VTX-DIFFpp = 2 x |VOD|.
Differential Waveform
The differential waveform is constructed by subtracting the inverting signal
(SD_TXn_P, for example) from the non-inverting signal (SD_TXn_N, for example)

Electrical characteristics
within a differential pair. There is only one signal trace curve in a differential
waveform. The voltage represented in the differential waveform is not referenced to
ground. Refer to Figure 32 as an example for differential waveform.
Common Mode Voltage, Vcm
The common mode voltage is equal to half of the sum of the voltages between each
conductor of a balanced interchange circuit and ground. In this example, for SerDes
output, V cm_out = (VSD_TXn_P + VSD_TXn_N) ÷ 2 = (A + B) ÷ 2, which is the arithmetic
mean of the two complimentary output voltages within a differential pair. In a system,
the common mode voltage may often differ from one component's output to the other's
input. It may be different between the receiver input and driver output circuits within
the same component. It is also referred to as the DC offset on some occasions.
To illustrate these definitions using real values, consider the example of a current mode
logic (CML) transmitter that has a common mode voltage of 2.25 V and outputs, TD and
TD_B. If these ouputs have a swing from 2.0 V to 2.5 V, the peak-to-peak voltage swing
of each signal (TD or TD_B) is 500 mV p-p, which is referred to as the single-ended
swing for each signal. Because the differential signaling environment is fully symmetrical
in this example, the transmitter output's differential swing (VOD) has the same amplitude
as each signal's single-ended swing. The differential output signal ranges between 500
mV and -500 mV. In other words, VOD is 500 mV in one phase and -500 mV in the other
phase. The peak differential voltage (VDIFFp) is 500 mV. The peak-to-peak differential
voltage (VDIFFp-p) is 1000 mVp-p.
3.19.2 SerDes reference clocks
The SerDes reference clock inputs are applied to an internal phase-locked loop (PLL)
whose output creates the clock used by the corresponding SerDes lanes. The SerDes
reference clocks inputs are SD1_REF_CLK1_P and SD1_REF_CLK1_N.
SerDes may be used for various combinations of the following IP block based on the
RCW configuration field SRDS_PRTCLn:
• SGMII (1.25 Gbaud or 3.125 Gbaud)
• PCIe (2.5 GT/s, 5 GT/s)
• SATA (1.5 Gbps, 3.0 Gbps, and 6.0 Gbps)
The following sections describe the SerDes reference clock requirements and provide
application information.

3.19.2.1
SerDes spread-spectrum clock source recommendations
SDn_REF_CLKn_P and SDn_REF_CLKn_N are designed to work with spread-spectrum
clocking for the PCI Express protocol only with the spreading specification defined in
Table 48. When using spread-spectrum clocking for PCI Express, both ends of the link
partners should use the same reference clock. For best results, a source without
significant unintended modulation must be used.
The SerDes transmitter does not support spread-spectrum clocking for the SATA
protocol. The SerDes receiver does support spread-spectrum clocking on receive, which
means the SerDes receiver can receive data correctly from a SATA serial link partner
using spread-spectrum clocking.
Spread-spectrum clocking cannot be used if the same SerDes reference clock is shared
with other non-spread-spectrum-supported protocols. For example, if spread-spectrum
clocking is desired on a SerDes reference clock for the PCI Express protocol and the
same reference clock is used for any other protocol, such as SATA or SGMII because of
the SerDes lane usage mapping option, spread-spectrum clocking cannot be used at all.
This table provides the source recommendations for SerDes spread-spectrum clocking.

Figure 28. Receiver of SerDes reference clock
The characteristics of the clock signals are as follows:
• The SerDes receiver's core power supply voltage requirements (SVDD) are as
specified in Table 4.
• The SerDes reference clock receiver reference circuit structure is as follows:
• The SDn_REF_CLK_P and SDn_REF_CLK_N are internally AC-coupled
differential inputs as shown in Figure 28. Each differential clock input
(SDn_REF_CLK_P or SDn_REF_CLK_N) has on-chip 50-Ω termination to
SD_GND1 followed by on-chip AC-coupling.
• The external reference clock driver must be able to drive this termination.
• The SerDes reference clock input can be either differential or single-ended.
Refer to the differential mode and single-ended mode descriptions below for
detailed requirements.
• The maximum average current requirement also determines the common mode
voltage range.
• When the SerDes reference clock differential inputs are DC coupled externally
with the clock driver chip, the maximum average current allowed for each input
pin is 8 mA. In this case, the exact common mode input voltage is not critical as
long as it is within the range allowed by the maximum average current of 8 mA
because the input is AC-coupled on-chip.
• This current limitation sets the maximum common mode input voltage to be less
than 0.4 V (0.4 V ÷ 50 = 8 mA) while the minimum common mode input level is
0.1 V above SD_GND. For example, a clock with a 50/50 duty cycle can be
produced by a clock driver with output driven by its current source from 0 mA to
16 mA (0-0.8 V), such that each phase of the differential input has a singleended swing from 0 V to 800 mV with the common mode voltage at 400 mV.
• If the device driving the SDn_REF_CLK_P and SDn_REF_CLK_N inputs
cannot drive 50 Ω to SD_GND DC or the drive strength of the clock driver chip
exceeds the maximum input current limitations, it must be AC-coupled off-chip.
• The input amplitude requirement is described in detail in the following sections.

3.19.2.3
DC level requirement for SerDes reference clocks
The DC level requirement for the SerDes reference clock inputs is different depending on
the signaling mode used to connect the clock driver chip and SerDes reference clock
inputs, as described below:
• Differential mode
• The input amplitude of the differential clock must be between 400 mV and 1600
mV differential peak-peak (or between 200 mV and 800 mV differential peak).
In other words, each signal wire of the differential pair must have a single-ended
swing of less than 800 mV and greater than 200 mV. This requirement is the
same for both external DC-coupled or AC-coupled connection.
• For an external DC-coupled connection, as described in SerDes reference clock
receiver characteristics," the maximum average current requirements sets the
requirement for average voltage (common mode voltage) as between 100 mV
and 400 mV. The figure shows the SerDes reference clock input requirement for
DC-coupled connection scheme.
200 mV < Input amplitude or differential peak < 800 mV
SD1_REF_CLKn_P
Vmax < 800mV
100 mV < Vcm < 400 mV
Vmin > 0 V
SD1_REF_CLKn_N
Figure 29. Differential reference clock input DC requirements (external DC-coupled)
• For an external AC-coupled connection, there is no common mode voltage
requirement for the clock driver. Because the external AC-coupling capacitor
blocks the DC level, the clock driver and the SerDes reference clock receiver
operate in different command mode voltages. The SerDes reference clock
receiver in this connection scheme has its common mode voltage set to
SD_GND. Each signal wire of the differential inputs is allowed to swing below
and above the command mode voltage SD_GND.
• The figure shows the SerDes reference clock input requirement for AC-coupled
connection scheme.

• Single-ended mode
• The reference clock can also be single-ended. The SDn_REF_CLK_P input
amplitude (single-ended swing) must be between 400 mV and 800 mV peakpeak (from VMIN to VMAX) with SDn_REF_CLK_N either left unconnected or
tied to ground.
• To meet the input amplitude requirement, the reference clock inputs may need to
be DC- or AC-coupled externally. For the best noise performance, the reference
of the clock could be DC- or AC-coupled into the unused phase
(SDn_REF_CLK_N) through the same source impedance as the clock input
(SDn_REF_CLK_P) in use.
• The SDn_REF_CLK_P input average voltage must be between 200 and 400 mV.

signaling mode.

and SATA (1.5 Gbps, 3.0 Gbps, and 6.0 Gbps). The SerDes reference clocks need to be

measurement window is centered on the differential zero crossing. See Figure 32.

11. Matching applies to rising edge for SDn_REF_CLKn_P and falling edge rate for SDn_REF_CLKn_N. It is measured using
a ±75 mV window centered on the median cross point where SDn_REF_CLKn_P rising meets SDn_REF_CLKn_N falling.
The median cross point is used to calculate the voltage thresholds that the oscilloscope uses for the edge rate calculations.
The rise edge rate of SDn_REF_CLKn_P must be compared to the fall edge rate of SDn_REF_CLKn_N, the maximum
allowed difference should not exceed 20% of the slowest edge rate. See Figure 33.

Notes:
1. Measured at the package pins with a test load of 50 Ω to GND on each pin.
2. Impedance during all LTSSM states. When transitioning from a fundamental reset to detect (the initial state of the LTSSM)
there is a 5 ms transition time before receiver termination values must be met on all unconfigured lanes of a port.
3. The receiver DC common mode impedance that exists when no power is present or fundamental reset is asserted. This
helps ensure that the receiver detect circuit does not falsely assume a receiver is powered on when it is not. This term must
be measured at 300 mV above the receiver ground.
4. For recommended operating conditions, see Table 4.

Maximum time between the TRX-EYE-MEDIAN- jitter median and maximum to-MAX-JITTER
deviation from the median.
Notes:
1. Specified at the measurement point and measured over any 250 consecutive UIs. The test load in Test and measurement
load must be used as the receiver device when taking measurements. If the clocks to the receiver and transmitter are not
derived from the same reference clock, the transmitter UI recovered from 3500 consecutive UI must be used as a reference
for the eye diagram.
2. A TRX-EYE = 0.40 UI provides for a total sum of 0.60 UI deterministic and random jitter budget for the transmitter and
interconnect collected any 250 consecutive UIs. The TRX-EYE-MEDIAN-to-MAX-JITTER specification ensures a jitter
distribution in which the median and the maximum deviation from the median is less than half of the total. UI jitter budget
collected over any 250 consecutive transmitter UIs. It must be noted that the median is not the same as the mean. The jitter
median describes the point in time where the number of jitter points on either side is approximately equal as opposed to the
averaged time value. If the clocks to the receiver and transmitter are not derived from the same reference clock, the
transmitter UI recovered from 3500 consecutive UI must be used as the reference for the eye diagram.
3. It is recommended that the recovered transmitter UI is calculated using all edges in the 3500 consecutive UI interval with a
fit algorithm using a minimization merit function. Least squares and median deviation fits have worked well with experimental
and simulated data.

3.19.7 SGMII interface
Each SGMII port features a 4-wire AC-coupled serial link from the SerDes interface of
the chip, as shown in Figure 37, where CTX is the external (on board) AC-coupled
capacitor. Each SerDes transmitter differential pair features 100-Ω output impedance.
Each input of the SerDes receiver differential pair features 50-Ω on-die termination to
XGNDn. The reference circuit of the SerDes transmitter and receiver is shown in Figure
34.

Notes:
1. The symbols used for timing specifications herein follow the pattern t(first two letters of functional block)(signal)(state)(reference)(state) for
inputs and t(first two letters of functional block)(reference)(state)(signal)(state) for outputs. For example, tI2DVKH symbolizes I2C timing (I2) with
respect to the time data input signals (D) reaching the valid state (V) relative to the tI2C clock reference (K) going to the high
(H) state or setup time. Also, tI2SXKL symbolizes I2C timing (I2) for the time that the data with respect to the START condition
(S) went invalid (X) relative to the tI2C clock reference (K) going to the low (L) state or hold time. Also, tI2PVKH symbolizes I2C
timing (I2) for the time that the data with respect to the STOP condition (P) reaches the valid state (V) relative to the tI2C clock
reference (K) going to the high (H) state or setup time.
2. The requirements for I2C frequency calculation must be followed. See Determining the I2C Frequency Divider Ratio for
SCL (AN2919)."
3. As a transmitter, the chip provides a delay time of at least 300 ns for the SDA signal (referred to as the VIHmin of the SCL
signal) to bridge the undefined region of the falling edge of SCL to avoid unintended generation of a START or STOP
condition. When the chip acts as the I2C bus master while transmitting, it drives both SCL and SDA. As long as the load on
SCL and SDA are balanced, the chip does not generate an unintended START or STOP condition. Therefore, the 300 ns
SDA output delay time is not a concern. If under some rare condition, the 300 ns SDA output delay time is required for the
chip as transmitter, see Determining the I2C Frequency Divider Ratio for SCL (AN2919) .
4. The maximum tI2OVKL has to be met only if the device does not stretch the LOW period (tI2CL) of the SCL signal.
5. For recommended operating conditions, see Table 4.

Notes:
1. The symbols used for timing specifications follow the pattern t(first two letters of functional block)(signal)(state)(reference)(state) for inputs
and t(first two letters of functional block)(reference)(state)(signal)(state) for outputs. For example, tJTDVKH symbolizes JTAG device timing
(JT) with respect to the time data input signals (D) reaching the valid state (V) relative to the tJTG clock reference (K) going to
the high (H) state or setup time. Also, tJTDXKH symbolizes JTAG timing (JT) with respect to the time data input signals (D)
reaching the invalid state (X) relative to the tJTG clock reference (K) going to the high (H) state. Note that in general, the clock
reference symbol representation is based on three letters representing the clock of a particular functional. For rise and fall
times, the latter convention is used with the appropriate letter: R (rise) or F (fall).
2. TRST_B is an asynchronous level sensitive signal. The set-up time is for test purposes only.
3. All outputs are measured from the midpoint voltage of the falling edge of tTCLK to the midpoint of the signal in question.
The output timings are measured at the pins. All output timings assume a purely resistive 50-Ω load. Time-of-flight delays
must be added for trace lengths, vias, and connectors in the system.
This figure provides the AC test load for TDO and the boundary-scan outputs of the

document can be obtained from your local NXP sales office.
5.2 Temperature diode
The chip has temperature diodes that can be used to monitor its temperature by using
some external temperature monitoring devices (such as ADT7481A™).
The following are the specifications of the chip's on-board temperature diode:

Thermal characteristics
• Operating range: 10 - 230 μA
• Ideality factor over temperature range 85⁰ C to 105⁰ C, n = 1.006 ± 0.003, with
approximate error ± 1⁰ C and error under ± 3⁰ C for temperature range 0⁰ C to 85⁰ C.
5.3 Thermal management information
This section describes the thermal management information for the molded flip-chip, land
grid array (FC-LGA) package for air-cooled applications. Heat extraction from the
package is primarily dependant on the attached cooling solution, board attributes and
ambient/environmental conditions around the package. When an effective cooling
solution is attached to the topside of the package, a significant amount of heat will
extracted in that direction. If there is no cooling solution attached to the package, the
primary heat loss path will be through the package lands to the motherboard. The
FCLGA package is designed with a unique LGA map where ground and power pins are
clustered in the centre of the package, under the die shadow area. This feature allows for
effective heat transfer to the motherboard. The need for heat sinks or any cooling solution
ultimately depends on the use condition and system environment. This figure illustrates a
typical heat transfer paths and thermal resistances that is associated with this package.

5.3.1 Bare package heat transfer
This section describes a scenario where there is no heat sink or cooling solution attached
on the top side of the package. Bulk of the heat generated in the die will be channelled to
the PC board through the package substrate and land grid array. The land grid array of
this package is designed to facilitate routing of all dual-row perimeter pins on the top
metal layer of the PC board using standard design rules. This enables placement of
copper planes in the internal and bottom layers of a four layer PC board for thermal
dissipation, power and ground. The PC board drawing in Figure 51 illustrates this. The
PC board’s power/ground plated through holes (PTH) or via will channel heat from the
package to the PC board’s internal copper planes. The centrally positioned ground and
power pins under the die shadow (that is, the heat source) area significantly aids this
mode of heat transfer.

Thermal characteristics
5.3.2 Heat sink and thermal interface materials
A topside heat sink may or may not be needed for the molded FC-LGA depending on use
case and environmental conditions. The recommended attachment method to the heat
sink is illustrated in the following figure. The heat sink should be attached to the printed
circuit board with the spring force centred over package. This spring force should not
exceed 40 Newtons.

Figure 51. Package exploded, cross-sectional view - molded FC-LGA
The system thermal engineer can choose among several types of commercially-available
heat sinks to determine the appropriate one to place on the device. Ultimately, the final
selection of an appropriate heat sink depends on factors such as thermal performance at a
given air velocity, spatial volume, mass, attachment method, assembly and cost.
A thermal interface material is required at the package-to-heat sink interface to minimize
the thermal contact resistance. The performance of thermal interface materials improves
with increasing contact pressure; this performance characteristic chart is generally
provided by the thermal interface vendor. The recommended method of mounting heat
sinks on the package is by means of a spring clip attachment to the printed-circuit board.
5.3.3 Gap filler thermal pads
In a scenario where there is a lack of volumetric space or headroom above the package
for a heat sink, gap filler thermal pads can be used to fill the space between the package
and the structure above it. Usually, this structure is the inner chassis skin but may also be

NXP Semiconductors
Package information
a wide metal heat spreader shared by multiple packages on the same side of the PC board.
Gap filler thermal pads are essentially a thicker form of thermal interface material with
thicknesses ranging from 0.25 to 5 mm. The presence of the thermal pads will facilitate
heat transfer from the top side of the package thus aiding in package temperature
reduction. There are many commercially available materials that should be selected based
on the target thickness and thermal conductivity that best suits the use application.

Security fuse processor
Figure 52. Mechanical dimensions of the FC-LGA
7 Security fuse processor
This chip implements the QorIQ platform's Trust Architecture, supporting capabilities
such as secure boot. Use of the Trust Architecture features is dependent on programming
fuses in the Security Fuse Processor (SFP). The details of the Trust Architecture and SFP
can be found in the chip reference manual.
To program SFP fuses, the user is required to supply 1.8 V to the TA_PROG_SFP pin per
Power up sequencing. TA_PROG_SFP should only be powered for the duration of the
fuse programming cycle, with a per device limit of six fuse programming cycles. All
other times, TA_PROG_SFP should be connected to GND. The sequencing requirements
for raising and lowering TA_PROG_SFP are shown in Power up sequencing. To ensure
device reliability, fuse programming must be performed within the recommended fuse
programming temperature range per Table 4.
NOTE
Users not implementing the QorIQ platform's Trust
Architecture features should connect TA_PROG_SFP to GND.
