NOTES:
1. All voltages referenced to VSS.
2. All parameters assume proper device initialization.
3. Tests for AC timing and electrical AC and DC characteristics may be conducted at nominal supply
voltage levels, but the related specifi cations and device operation are guaranteed for the full
voltage ranges specifi ed.
4. The circuit shown below represents the timing reference load used in defi ning the relevant
timing parameters of the device. It is not intended to be either a precise representation of the
typical system environment or a depiction of the actual load presented by a production tester.
System designers will use IBIS or other simulation tools to correlate the timing reference load
to system environment. Specifi cations are correlated to production test conditions (generally a
coaxial transmission line terminated at the tester electronics). For the half-strength driver with a
nominal 10pF load, parameters tAC and tQH are expected to be in the same range. However, these
parameters are not subject to production test but are estimated by design/characterization. Use of
IBIS or other simulation tools for system design validation is suggested.

5. The CK/CK# input reference voltage level (for timing referenced to CK/CK#) is the point at which
CK and CK# cross; the input reference voltage level for signals other than CK/ CK# is VDDQ/2.
6. A CK and CK# input slew rate 1 V/ns (2 V/ns if measured differentially) is assumed for all
parameters.
7. All AC timings assume an input slew rate of 1 V/ns.
8. CAS latency defi nition: with CL = 2, the fi rst data element is valid at (tCK + tAC) after the clock at
which the READ command was registered; for CL = 3, the fi rst data element is valid at (2 × tCK +
tAC) after the fi rst clock at which the READ command was registered.
9. Timing tests may use a VIL-to-VIH swing of up to 1.5V in the test environment, but input timing is still
referenced to VDDQ/2 or to the crossing point for CK/CK#. The output timing reference voltage level
is VDDQ/2.
10. Clock frequency change is only permitted during clock stop, power-down, or self refresh mode.
11. In cases where the device is in self refresh mode for tCKE, tCKE starts at the rising edge of the clock
and ends when CKE transitions HIGH.
12. tDAL = (tWR/tCK) + (tRP/tCK): for each term, if not already an integer, round up to the next highest integer.
13. Referenced to each output group: For x32, DQS0 with DQ[7:0]; DQS1 with DQ[15:8]; DQS2 with
DQ[23:16]; and DQS3 with DQ[31:24].
14. DQ and DM input slew rates must not deviate from DQS by more than 10%. If the DQ/DM/ DQS
slew rate is less than 1.0 V/ns, timing must be derated: 50ps must be added to tDS and tDH for each
100 mV/ns reduction in slew rate. If the slew rate exceeds 4 V/ns, functionality is uncertain.
15. The transition time for input signals (CAS#, CKE, CS#, DM, DQ, DQS, RAS#, WE#, and
addresses) are measured between VIL(DC) to VIH(AC) for rising input signals and VIH(DC) to VIL(AC) for
falling input signals.
16. These parameters guarantee device timing but are not tested on each device.
17. The valid data window is derived by achieving other specifi cations: tHP (tCK/2), tDQSQ, and tQH (tHP -
tQHS). The data valid window derates directly proportional with the clock duty cycle and a practical
data valid window can be derived. The clock is provided a maximum duty cycle variation of 45/55.
Functionality is uncertain when operating beyond a 45/55 ratio.
18. tHP (MIN) is the lesser of tCL (MIN) and tCH (MIN) actually applied to the device CK and CK# inputs,
collectively.
19. tHZ and tLZ transitions occur in the same access time windows as valid data transitions. These
parameters are not referenced to a specifi c voltage level, but specify when the device output is no
longer driving (tHZ) or begins driving (tLZ).
20. tHZ (MAX) will prevail over tDQSCK (MAX) + tRPST (MAX) condition.
21. Fast command/address input slew rate 1 V/ns. Slow command/address input slew rate 0.5 V/
ns. If the slew rate is less than 0.5 V/ns, timing must be derated: tIS has an additional 50ps per
each 100 mV/ns reduction in slew rate from the 0.5 V/ns. tIH has 0ps added, therefore, it remains
constant. If the slew rate exceeds 4.5 V/ns, functionality is uncertain.
22. READs and WRITEs with auto precharge must not be issued until tRAS (MIN) can be satisfi ed prior to
the internal PRECHARGE command being issued.
23. The refresh period equals 64ms. This equates to an average refresh rate of 7.8125s
24. This is not a device limit. The device will operate with a negative value, but system performance
could be degraded due to bus turnaround.
25. It is recommended that DQS be valid (HIGH or LOW) on or before the WRITE command. The case
shown (DQS going from High-Z to logic low) applies when no WRITEs were previously in progress
on the bus. If a previous WRITE was in progress, DQS could be HIGH during this time, depending
on tDQSS.
26. 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.
27. At least 1 clock cycle is required during tWR time when in auto precharge mode.
28. Clock must be toggled a minimum of two times during the tXSR period.
