Hello shahbaz , seeing the signals at the connector only is a bit difficult, as it always needs some Transmitter and Receiver models to do some Time domain simulation. And the interesting signal ist not at the connector, as this signal is completely different to what your devices are seeing (maybe I missunderstood your question) So if you would like to see the impact of the connector do the following: - Download the Connector model (that is most likely available from the connector vendor) - Downlaod a corresponding IBIS model for the DRAM (e. g. the one you are using (or any other .. it's conmodity ... ) - Check if you get IBIS model from any FPGA vendor (e. g. Xilinx (or the one that you are using (once you know it)) - Model the topology and routing on the board once you have done this you can simulate and check on the DQ and CA Bus signal quality. ==> This is the daily job: not the simulation is the time consuming part, but getting the models (and validating them) ...
