Terminating transmission lines: Option3

• Series terminate the line

  • Termination inferior to option1
  • Advantages
    • No static power consumption
    • Can drive many loads
  • Disadvantages
    • Half-amplitude transients on line
    • Cannot place gates along line (only place gates at ends)

Tip: Zwire ~ 100–140 Ohms

(assuming no ground plane)
