PRODUCTION DATA.
High-speed (HS) bypass capacitors are critcal for proper DDR3 interface operation. It is particularly important to minimize the parasitic series inductance of the HS bypass capacitors, processor/DDR power, and processor/DDR ground connections. Table 8-9 contains the specification for the HS bypass capacitors as well as for the power connections on the PCB. Generally speaking, it is good to:
NO. | PARAMETER | MIN | TYP | MAX | UNIT |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | HS bypass capacitor package size(1) | 0201 | 0402 | 10 Mils | |
2 | Distance, HS bypass capacitor to processor being bypassed(2)(3)(4) | 400 | Mils | ||
3 | processor HS bypass capacitor count per vdds_ddrx rail (12) | See Section 8.4 and (11) | Devices | ||
4 | processor HS bypass capacitor total capacitance per vdds_ddrx rail (12) | See Section 8.4 and (11) | μF | ||
5 | Number of connection vias for each device power/ground ball(5) | Vias | |||
