1) For all input signals the total tIS(setup time) and tIH(hold) time) required is calculated by adding the datasheet value to
the derating value listed in above Table.
Setup(tIS) nominal slew rate for a rising signal is defined as the slew rate between the last crossing of VREF(dc) and the first
crossing of VIH(ac)min. Setup(tIS) nominal slew r ate for a falling signal is de fined as the slew rate betwee n the last crossing
of VREF(dc) and the first crossing of VIL(ac)max. If the actual signal is always earlier than the nominal slew rate for line
between shaded ‘VREF(dc) to ac region’, use nominal slew rate for derating value(see fig a.) If the actual signal is later than
the nominal slew rate line anywhere between shaded ‘VREF(dc) to ac region’, the slew rate of a tangent line to the actual
signal from the ac level to dc level is used for derating value(see Fig b.)
Hold(tIH) nominal slew rate for a rising signal is defined as the slew rate between the last crossing of VIL(dc)max and the
first crossing of VREF(dc). Hold(tIH) nominal slew rate for a falling signal is defined as the slew rate between the last cross-
ing of VREF(dc). If the actual signal signal is always later than the nominal slew rate line between shaded ‘dc to VREF(dc)
region’, use nominal slew rate for derating value(see Fig.c) If the actual signal is earlier than the nominal slew rate line any-
where between shaded ‘dc to VREF(dc) region’, the slew rate of a tangent line to the actual signal from the dc level to
VREF(dc) level is used for derating value(see Fig d.)
Although for slow rates the total setup time might be negative(i.e. a v alid input signal will not ha ve reached V IH/IL(ac) at the
time of the rising clock transition) a valid input signal is still required to complete the transition and reach VIH/IL(ac).
For slew rates in between the values listed in table, the derating values may obtained by linear interpolation.
These values are typically not subject to production test. They are verified by design and characterization.
10. The maximum limit for this parameter is not a device limit. The device will operate with a greater value for this
parameter, but system performance (bus turnaround) will degrade accordingly.
11. MIN ( t CL, t CH) refers to the smaller of the actual clock low time and the actual clock high time as provided to the
device (i.e. this value can be greater than the minimum specification limits for t CL and t CH). F or example, t CL and t CH
are = 50% of the period, less the half period jitter ( t JIT(HP)) of the clock source, and less the half period jitter due to
crosstalk (tJIT(crosstalk)) into the clock traces.
12. t QH = t HP – t QHS, where: tHP = minimum half clock period for any given cycle and is defined by clock high or clock
low ( tCH, tCL).
tQHS accounts for:
1) The pulse duration distortion of on-chip clock circuits; and
2) The worst case push-out of DQS on one transition followed by the worst case pull-in of DQ on the next transition,
both of which are, separately, due to data pin skew and output pattern effects, and p-channel to n-channel
variation of the output drivers.
13. tDQSQ: Consists of data pin sk ew and output patt ern eff ects, and p-channel to n- channel va riation of the ou tput drivers
as well as output slew rate mismatch between DQS/ DQS and associated DQ in a ny given cycle.
14. DAL = WR + RU{tRP(ns)/tCK(ns)}, where RU stands for round up. WR ref e rs to the tWR parameter stored in the MRS.
For tRP, if the result of the division is not already an integer, round up to the next highest integer. tCK refers to the
application clock period.
Example: For DDR533 at tCK = 3.75ns with tWR programmed to 4 clocks.
tDAL = 4 + (15ns/3.75ns) clocks = 4+(4) clocks = 8 clocks.
15. The clock frequency is allowed to change during self–refresh mode or precharge power-down mode. In case of clock
frequency change during precharge power-down, a specific procedure is required as described in section 2.9.
16. ODT turn on time min is when the device leaves high impedance and ODT resistance begins to turn on.
ODT turn on time max is when the ODT resistance is fully on. Both are measured from tAOND.
