It has taken multiple years to shape DDR5 memory definitions and specifications by the industry. Some semiconductor manufacturers have already started powering on and validating DDR5 memory although the final specification is not yet complete. DDR5 memory shares many similar features to its predecessor, DDR4; but also some features that are very different, such as equalization on the DRAM receiver. Without simulating proper channel equalization, it is almost impossible to open the eye at higher speed such as 6400Mbps, and predict what the design margin will be. In this paper, you will learn the details of DDR5 memory design, which models and simulation technologies are needed for an accurate simulation, and how design/simulation challenges are addressed with Memory Designer in PathWave ADS. |
