Here's a scope trace of WR and TXE# probe at the pins of the FT245BM on the MAX II PCI development kit. The scope probe was longer than I would normally use; it was clipped to a ground connection in the prototype area. The small amount of ringing seen in the traces is due to the probe ground.

The signal quality of this trace is fine, there is no ringing due to the board layout.

Cheers,

Dave
