DDR2 and DDR3 SDRAM Interface AC Electrical Characteristics
This section provides the AC electrical characteristics for the DDR SDRAM Controller interface. The
DDR controller supports both DDR2 and DDR3 memories. Note that although the minimum data rate for
most off-the-shelf DDR3 DIMMs available is 800 MHz, JEDEC specification does allow the DDR3 to run
at the data rate as low as 606 MHz. Unless otherwise specified, the AC timing specifications described in
this section for DDR3 is applicable for data rate between 606 MHz and 800 MHz, as long as the DC and
