DDR4 calibration issues on LS1046 custom board Good day! We are trying to bring up our custom LS1046-based board up and stucked with DDR4 calibration procedure. SPD data of the modules is red successfully, calibration process starts successfully too, but after that it fails with this reason(log from CodeWarrior 😞 ############################### Run 1 Result for: wrlvl_searcher ###################################### Test result: [ ============================================================ Updated: WRLVL_CNTL = 0x8655F605, WRLVL_CNTL_2 = 0x00000000, WRLVL_CNTL_3 = 0x00000000, SDRAM_CLK_CNTL = 0x02800000 ============================================================ Updated: WRLVL_CNTL = 0x8655F60A, WRLVL_CNTL_2 = 0x0B0B0C0F, WRLVL_CNTL_3 = 0x0F10110D, SDRAM_CLK_CNTL = 0x02800000 ============================================================ Updated: WRLVL_CNTL = 0x8655F60A, WRLVL_CNTL_2 = 0x0B0B0C0F, WRLVL_CNTL_3 = 0x0F101115, SDRAM_CLK_CNTL = 0x02800000 ============================================================ Updated: WRLVL_CNTL = 0x8655F60A, WRLVL_CNTL_2 = 0x0B0B0C0F, WRLVL_CNTL_3 = 0x0F10111D, SDRAM_CLK_CNTL = 0x02800000 Write Leveling start values are correct and require no further modification, but the test failed due to other issues.

What can be the problem? Re: DDR4 calibration issues on LS1046 custom board Is there available RCW on the customer board?
Has the ASLEEP led turned on and off?
What's the frequency of the DDR clock?
Thanks Re: DDR4 calibration issues on LS1046 custom board DDR calibration is performed using a hardcoded RCW. System clock - 100 MHz DDR bus clock - 800 MHz, DDR data rate - 1600 mt/s Memory module - non-ECC. One interesting thing - from timer to time the 1 st stage of calibration (wrtlvl search) is successfully passed.

Re: DDR4 calibration issues on LS1046 custom board 1.The QCVS does not support hardcoded RCW official, valid RCW has to be presented in the RCW source flash or SD card.
Would you kindly program the RCW into the flash first, and then do the QCVS DDR validation.
2.Run the command below in the CCS:
(bin) 42 % delete all
(bin) 43 % config cc cwtap
(bin) 44 % show cc
(bin) 45 % ccs::config_chain {ls1043a dap sap2}
(bin) 46 % display ::ccs::get_config_chain
(bin) 47 % ccs::reset_to_debug
Send the logs to me.
3.would you kindly share the schematics and confirm the layout follow the
AN5097, Hardware and Layout Design Considerations for DDR4 SDRAM Memory Interfaces
Thanks Re: DDR4 calibration issues on LS1046 custom board The problem was solved by updating to new version of QCVS(4.27.0)
