SETTLING LIMIT GUIDELINE
A Settling Limit defines the maximum amount of ringing at the receiving pin that a signal must
be limited to before its next transition. The amount allowed is 10% of the total signal swing
(VHI-VLO) above and below its final value. A signal should be within the settling limits of its
final value, when either in its high state of low state, before it transitions again.
Signals that are not within their settling limit before transitioning are at risk of unwanted oscil-
lations which could jeopardize signal integrity. Simulations to verify Settling Limit may be done
either with or without the input protection diodes present. Violation of the Settling Limit guide-
line is acceptable if simulations of 5-10 successive transitions do not show the amplitude of the
ringing increasing in the subsequent transitions.
