DDR SDRAM Layout Considerations

Due to the critical timing for DDR SDRAM, there are a number of considerations that should be taken into

account during PCB layout:

•

Minimize overall trace lengths.

•

Each DQS, DM, and DQ group must have identical loading and similar routing to maintain timing

integrity.

•

Control and clock signals are routed point-to-point.

•

Trace length for clock, address, and command signals should match.

•

Route DDR signals on layers adjacent to the ground plane.

•

Use a VREF plane under the SDRAM.

•

VREF is decoupled from both SDVDD and VSS.

•

To avoid crosstalk, keep address and command signals separate from data and data strobes.

•

Use different resistor packs for command/address and data/data strobes.

•

Use single series, single parallel termination (25

Ω series, 50 Ω parallel values are recommended,

but standard resistor packs with similar values can be substituted).

•

Series termination should be between the MCF548x and memory, but closest to the processor.

•

The parallel termination at end of the signal line (close to the SDRAM).

•

0.1 uF decoupling for every termination resistor pack.
