Designers can save board space, cost and reduce power consumption by following DDR3 guidelines without VTT termination. This reference design shows how to do that with AM437x. This type of design is not for everyone as there are certain restrictions. Having short trace lengths, a maximum of two DDR3 parts and a balanced T-topology are must-have requirements; otherwise VTT termination guidelines should be followed.
