High speed microprocessors like Intel’s Pentium ® Pro Processor, demand unique, high speed bus termination schemes. The SWR6G series network provides 18 terminations per package. Four termination resistor values are available. The 47, 50 and 56 ohm terminations are suitable for use with the Intel server chip set and the 68 ohm termination is suitable for use with the Intel desktop chip set. The tight resistor tolerance minimizes noise contribution from termination mismatching. The SWR6G network offers high performance, high reliability, and low cost through manufacturing efficiency. It meets or exceeds all Intel specifications for termination performance and provides an additional degree of system noise margin. The termination resistor elements are fabricated using state-of-the-art thin film manufacturing. This highly integrated solution is silicon-based and has the same reliability characteristics as any of today’s microprocessor products. The thin film resistors have excellent stability over temperature, over applied voltage, and over product life. In addition, the QSOP industry standard packaging is easy to handle in manufacturing and provides interconnect reliability — on par with other common semiconductor components — and far better than traditional thick film-based chip products.
