The tables below show the required double cycle signal AC timing for the GT-64260A SDRAM interface and
SDRAM devices.
The GT-64260A to SDRAM chip select timing calculations:
Tcycle > Toutput_delay(GT-64260A) + Tsetup(SDRAM) + Tdelay(fly_time) + Tclock_skew
7.5 > 3.7 + 1.5 + Tdelay(fly_time) + 0.5
Tdelay(fly_time) < 1.8 ns
shows a simulation of 0.8 ns delay trace. The fly time is measured from the GT-64260A reference point
that was measured in
(2 ns) to the Vil measured on the SDRAM pin (3.8 ns) in the figure
below (board simulation).
