Bala,

One reason for the larger spacing between byte lanes is that byte lanes can be 
routed at different lengths and
there can be significant phase offset between byte lanes.  Not so much in DDR2, 
but certainly in DDR3.  Out of phase
xtalk is more problematic that xtalk within a byte lane.  Since there are only 
7 boundaries between byte lanes its
common to allocate more spacing to these boundaries in order to avoid or reduce 
out of phase xtalk.

Hi All,
Why data lines of same byte in ddr2 routed together?As we know all the data 
lines in a DDR2 running at same frequency and if we route byte0 and byte1 at 
same length,why do we need to maintain different trace-trace spacing for same 
byte and different byte?
