What is this fourth resistor? I mean, what are the other three
resistors?

Best regards,

No, that isn't right.  Take the view Lee likes to emphasize, and that is
at=20
the driver, we have two single ended signals that are coded as
complements=20
with low skew.  If we do not couple these lines significantly, and blast

them down a Tx line, then we need to terminate each line into the=20
single-ended impedance of 50 ohms.  But 50 ohms needs to be to a Vtt
that=20
is at the center of the swing.  The capacitor does that.

Now, if we couple the lines tightly, then we would want to add a fourth=20
resistor in place of the original 100 ohms to match the line to line=20
coupling.  This would be something like 500 to 1000 ohms.

Steve.
