Well, it goes to my first point about +/-3-+/-15 volts
into what?
Resistance, capacitance, what are limits? Where in the spec does it
say? Us 10 pF too little and 10 uF too much?
I don't recall. It's been too long since I read the spec. I think the
voltages are open-circuit voltages, but even that much I'm not sure of.
As far as pin count--differential is only 2 pins; on
single-ended
signals, you still need a return line for the signal line.
Yes, but a single return line ("signal ground") can be shared by many
single-ended signal lines. That's why I said single-ended signaling
_approximately_ halves signal pin count as compared to differential.
