Hi When doing our interface design the problem is like this. We are having seperate 16 bit data for read and write at the controller side and 8 bit bidirectional data at the memory side. Our interface has some mux, OCD , ODT etc. Actually we are not doing full controller design rather I/O part of controller. So while simulating we are not giving address,RAS,CAS etc,. Only we are having data bits, OE and control bits for OCD,ODT. Now if we want to simulate the interface there are so many combinations we have to try, as effectively 32 bit data (seperate 16 bit data for read and write) is connected to 8-bit data. This simulation takes more time and laborius. Could anyone suggest how to test effectively so that the time and complexity is reduced. My second question is should we have to put ODT (On-Die termination) on both transmitter and reciever (both on controller) or it is enough to have ODT in reciever side, as there is a OCD(off-chip driver) in transmitter side which can take care of termination.

What tool are you using? Even with HSPICE, the set up will take a bit longer but you should be able to simulate in no more than 1 hour (and probably a lot less) unless you have very low level encrypted spice models. -----Original Message----- From: si-list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:si-list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Prakash N Sent: Tuesday, March 29, 2005 10:32 AM To: si-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [SI-LIST] DDR-II Hi I'm doing mini project in DDR-II interface between controller and DDR-II. Anybody knows how to simulate, as trying to simulate 8 bits will take a long time. So we have to simplify the simulation with good accuracy. If anyone knows about simultaing , please help me.
