Hi Deepak,


For question:

1. Vih(ac) is VREF (VDD/2) plus 150mV or 175mV depend on your part's speed
and whether you are referring to a DQ/DQS or an ADD/CMD line.

2. What do you mean by "less immune"?

3. VTT has the ADD/CMD terminated to it. Is it a buried plane in your
stack-up? Is it decoupled to VDD and/or GND?

4. AC175 is the VREF+175mV requirement for Vih(ac) and AC150 is the
VREF+150mV requirement for Vih(ac). Which one you use depends on your clock
rate and signal. From 1333 and up the DQ lines only support AC150.

5.

6. The AC ratings are primarily to ensure sufficient line levels before the
strobe arrives (setup time). The DC ratings still are used in the hold time
measurement.
