Memory Interface Routing Guidelines
The DDR interface requires a nominal impedance (Zo) of 50
Ω
± 10%. Using the recommended
stackup, all routing layers yield 50
Ω
nominal impedance when using 5 mil wide traces. Route all
DDR signals 5/15 (5 mils wide with 15 mil spacing) as shown in
with the exception of
CKE, CMDCLK[3:0], and CMDCLK[3:0]#. For CMDCLK routing rules, refer to
and
. For CKE routing rules, refer to
. Route layers 4 and 5
orthogonal to each other to minimize crosstalk.
NOTES:
1. Traces on layers 4 and 5 must be routed orthogonally to each other to minimize the effects of crosstalk.
2. Source Synch., Source Clocked, and CS# are routed 5/15.
3. CKE is routed 7.5/15.
