Peter: I've done a lot of work with similar interfaces. The SDRAMs tend to have really fast edge rates and if you are lightly loaded, even a fairly short track length will give you a large overshoot or undershoot and lots of reflections if you are not careful. Simulation is your best approach before building.

I meet such problem in Miron 512Mb SDRAM chip working with Marvell 64260 bridge. This problem result in CPU unstability. When I change to Samesung 512MB SDRAM chip. the problem disappear.
