Data Sheet
Introduction
The W2309EP/ET double data rate (DDR) Bus Simulator quickly generates accurate bit-error-rate (BER) contours, masks, and margins between the two, for the DDR4 memory bus specification published by the JEDEC Solid State Technology Association.
The simulator achieves this by use of statistical simulation, meaning no lengthy and time-consuming bit pattern is needed. Instead, it constructs the eye diagram from the transmitter, channel, and receiver impulse responses, and from the stochastic properties of a conceptually infinite non-repeating bit pattern. In doing so, it avoids the pitfalls associated with precarious dual-Dirac extrapolation of a limited bit pattern from either SPICElike simulation or from convolutional channel simulation.
Key Features
Speed Up Simulation Time
Individual simulations are fast so designers can run in batch mode to quickly explore the design space. An additional product, the W2317EP/ET DDR Bus Simulator Distributed Computing 8-pack, enables you to farm out parameter sweeps to a compute cluster.
Rigorous DQ and DQS Eye Calculations
The DDR Bus Simulator offers rigorous DQ (DDR Data Input/Output) and DQS (DDR Data Strobe) eye calculations to arbitrarily low BER levels, including the 1E-16 contour specified by JEDEC, accounting for crosstalk and for asymmetry between rising and falling transition times. It provides comprehensive timing and voltage margins between the selected BER contour and the DDR4 receive mask specification.
Mix-and-Match between Built-in, IBIS and Circuit Models
The product allows for three IC model types: built-in, Input/output Buffer Information Specification (IBIS), or circuit models. The built-in driver and receiver model de-emphasis and continuous-time linear equalization (CTLE), respectively. Designers can “mix-and match” model types in their schematic.
