15.4.2 Data Timing
Since the AC specification of the GT-64260A and of the SDRAM devices is for a given test circuit, the first stage is
to calculate the reference point for the timing calculations. The reference point is used as a starting point to mea-
sure the signal fly time.
The output delay value of the GT-64260A data signals in the AC Timings table are given for 30 pf load (Cload =
30pf). The test circuit is shown in
Simulating the GT-64260A SDRAM interface data signals test circuit will give a reference point of 2.3 ns. (See
