The HT signals can be grouped into two broad categories (See Figure 2-6 on page 27):
Figure 2-6. Primary HT Signal Groups
Link Packet Transfer SignalsThe high-speed signals used for packet transfer in both directions across an HT link include:
Figure 2-7 illustrates these signals and defines various widths of data bus supported. The variables "n" and "m" define the scaling option implemented. Refer to "Link Initialization" on page 282 for details regarding HT data width and clock speed scaling. Figure 2-7. Link Signals Used to Transfer Packets
Link Support SignalsThe low-speed link support signals consist of power- and initialization-related signals and power management signals. Power- and initialization- related signals include:
