Configuration For DDR3L

[Sadatan123]

In DCD for IMX6Q the value of DRAM_SDCLK_0 is configured as below, will this work? Value of 18th bit (DDR_INPUT) is 0 which means it is CMOS input mode, 

DCD_ENTRY (3, 0x020e0588, 0x00000030) // IOMUXC_SW_PAD_CTL_PAD_DRAM_SDCLK_0

Do you think the value should be 0x00020030 instead of 0x00000030? or will this work?

How can the DQS-D Delay time,CLK-ADD and CLK-DS be derived from DCD file, what will be the value if the configuration is as given below:

DCD_ENTRY(28, 0x021b0800, 0xA1390003) // DDR_PHY_P0_MPZQHWCTRL, enable both one-time & periodic HW ZQ calibration.

// For target board, may need to run write levelling calibration to fine tune these settings.
DCD_ENTRY(29, 0x021b080c, 0x002D003A) // MMDC1_MPWLDECTRL0
DCD_ENTRY(30, 0x021b0810, 0x0038002B) // MMDC1_MPWLDECTRL1

Hello,

The recommended value is 0x00000030.

So, what exactly this bit signifies, I am asking as we are configuring it CMOS when the clock is differential? Also, we are configuring GRP_DDRMODE as 0x00020000 which signifies as differential, although as per reference manual it impacts DRAM_DATA00- DRAM_DATA63 and these signals are all single ended.

Hello,

The input mode parameter (DDR_INPUT bit) may be configured as CMOS or differential. This configures the voltage level at which the pins senses a transition from logic low to logic high and vice versa. In differential mode, the pins level transitions are at 50%. In CMOS input mode, the pins level transitions are at 80% for high and 20 % for low.

So, strictly speaking, this option should be set as CMOS for single-ended signals and as Differential for differential ones. But really different DDR_INPUT options may be used in case of timing problems in order to improve situation.

Best regards.
