What is the frequency of the DQS
inputs(s)?
The input clock frequency for the
inclk
or
outclk
signals. For the supported frequencies, refer to the
“External Memory” chapter in the respective device
handbook.
No No Yes Yes
What is the frequency mode?
Controls internal set up of delay chains. Available
options depend upon the DQS frequency you
entered. (1)
For the respective modes, refer to the respective
device datasheet.
No No Yes Yes
What is the delay buffer mode?
Only available in custom frequency mode. Delay
buffers can be set for High or Low delay modes.
No No Yes Yes
What is the DLL delay chain
length?
Option only available in custom frequency mode. A
delay chain length of 10, 12, or 16 buffers may be
implemented.
No No Yes Yes
How much phase shifting would
you like to use for the DQS clock?
Select phase-shift with pull-down options of 0, 72, or
90°. The values calculated from previously specified
delay buffer mode and DLL delay chain setting.
No No Yes Yes
Allow DQS to be disabled during
read post-amble
Inhibits the
ddioinclk
signal during read postamble
(when DQS transitions from 0 to Z). This stops the
ddioinclk
signal from creating false clocks as the
DQS goes into a tri-state. The device architecture
cannot implement this option on the DQSn port.
Therefore, if you select this option, the DQSn port
may only be used as an output (or left used). The
ddioinclk
signal is inhibited by a register clocked
by the DLL delayed DQS.
The
dqs_areset
and
dqs_sreset
signals control
this register. You must set the
dqs_sreset
signal to
V
CC
due to architectural constraints and control the
ddioinclk
signal using
dqs_areset
signal.
No No Yes Yes
