Introduction
DDR3 board bring-up requires additional steps vs. DDR2. This presentation outlines the procedure required for a successful bring-up of a DM816x/C6A816x/AM389x DDR3 system. In order to achieve higher data transfer rates DDR3 has built in compensation for system flight times. System flight time is a function of board routing, for both read and write. For the automatic compensation to converge it need to be seeded with board routing information.

Supported on Device
I/O Bus Clock (MHz) Data Rate (MT/s)
Leveling Mechanism
Algorithm based leveling searches
Executed after each device power-up. Compensates for the specific board delays and the specific silicon performance (both SDRAM and Device).
DDR3 Bring-up
The following steps are required (once per board design) 1. Calculate seed values for the leveling mechanism.
a) DDR3 routing measurements from board and critical memory parameters are fed into a calculator. b) Calculator provides the initial seed values.
