Hello 
I think you must be using a Pi or T  network inorder to terminate both even 
mode and odd mode imperences. Just out of curiosity what is the interconnect 
bewteen your TX and RX?   Stephen Hall. High-Speed Digital System Design?A 
Handbook of Interconnect is a very good book that explains this concept. Gil's 
idea of AC coupling is a neat way of avoiding the problem of setting  the 
common mode voltage.

Hi,

Thanks Gil.
But I am using Spartan-II as reciver, which intern has only 2.5V LVDS.
I suppose we should use some resitot network but not sure about exactly.

Regards,
Supro
