Seminars - Optimizing DDR2/DDR3/LPDDR2 Board Design

 

Join InnoFour and Mentor Graphics for a seminar on Signal Integrity analysis of DDR2/DDR3/LPDDR2 interface. Learn how advanced simulation technology, packaged within an easy-to-use environment, can dramatically improve your time-to-results, giving you more opportunity to innovate while meeting deadlines and cost goals. In this seminar we will review some of the common challenges you face in your design work such as constraint definition, timing alignment for clock and strobe signals for DDR2/DDR3 designs. We will also look at LPDDR2 interface for low power applications.

 

Signal Integrity challenges can slow or halt your project schedule. Even if you are working on a good base of theoretical knowledge there are so many variables to make the already complex tasks even more challenging. You will learn new solutions to help you resolve those problems in time and cost efficient ways. We will use cutting edge features of HyperLynx to demonstrate how you can overcome these challenges in your design process. You really can solve very complex design problems in easy-to-use tools with powerful engines beneath the hood.

 

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
  • How decoupling issues can affect your PCB design
  • How to analyze your PCB to quickly pinpoint power delivery issues and explore solutions
  • How HyperLynx PI can help solidify your PCB power distribution network
