Limitations on freq.
Delay difference between data and strobe The difference depends on SSN, trace lengths, Zo, SI, & buffer characteristics
R. B. Wu
Transmission of strobe must be timed so that both setup and hold requirements of the receiver latch are satisfied.

T data = Tco data + Tflt data + Tdelay T strobe = T co strobe + Tflt strobe T hold margin= (Tdata Tstrobe) Thold = Tva Thold TPCB skew where Tva = Tco data Tco strobe + Tdelay > 0 TPCB skew = Tflt data Tflt strobe R. B. Wu

Embedded clocking
Embed the clock into the data signal. PLL constructs a clock from data patterns Some overhead in data signals, say 20%.
