High-frequency termination and SCSI bus

Termination networks, either passive or active, are widely used to provide for impedance normalization in bus topologies and play an important role in maintaining computer data bus transfer and signal integrity, which reduce data errors. With the steady increase in microprocessor speeds, the design of data buses and termination devices requires a more exacting component in selection and physical design methodology or practice. Present microprocessor speeds are reaching beyond the 1 Hz range.
