E7500/E7501 Chipset Compatible Platform Design Guide
NOTES:
1. All lengths must be matched within 100 mils of target length.
2. 66 MHz clock lines routed with 25-mils isolation from any other signal.
3. Length from CK408B to MCH must be between 3 inches and 9.5 inches.
4. Each connector is equivalent to ~ 0.60 inch of trace.
5. Z is the card trace length.

5. Z is the card trace length.
6. Each riser is equivalent to ~0.60 + Y where Y is the riser card trace length.
7. The riser must be built with the CLK66 trace length matched to the motherboard routed length.
