Overview
Double Data Rate 2 (DDR2) is quickly becoming the new memory standard for today's applications, replacing standard DDR memory. As processor and transmit speeds continue to increase, it becomes increasingly difficult to meet timing and signal integrity requirements for these high speed systems. The HyperLynx DDR2 technology kit provides hardware engineers with the knowledge necessary to quickly develop a DDR2 memory subsystem solution space by investigating ODT (on-die termination) options, analyzing minimum and maximum routing constraints, and making proper flight-time measurements using slew rate derating techniques defined by the JEDEC DDR specification. In this one-hour session, we will discuss the differences between DDR and DDR2 and provide a valuable hands-on demonstration using HyperLynx LineSim.
What You Will Learn
- The differences between DDR, DDR2, and DDR3
- Developing DDR memory subsystem
- Identifying tradeoffs between termination and routing constraints
- Methods for meeting timing and signal integrity requirements
