Dynamic ODT
In certain application cases and to further enhance signal integrity on the data bus, it is desirable that the termination
strength of the DDR3 SDRAM can be changed without issuing an MRS command. This requirement is supported by
the “Dynamic ODT” feature as described as follows:
Functional Description:
The Dynamic ODT mode is enabled if bit A9 or A10 of MR2 is set to ’1’. The function and is described as follows:
• Two RTT values are available: RTT_Nom and RTT_WR.
The value for RTT_Nom is pre-selected via bits A[9,6,2] in MR1
The value for RTT_WR is pre-selected via bits A[10,9] in MR2
• During operation without write commands, the termination is controlled as follows:
Nominal termination strength RTT_Nom is selected.
Termination on/off timing is controlled via ODT pin and latencies ODTLon and ODTLoff.
• When a write command (WRIT, WRITA, WRS4, WRS8, WRAS4, WRAS8) is registered, and if Dynamic ODT is
enabled, the termination is controlled as follows:
A latency ODTLcnw after the write command, termination strength RTT_WR is selected.
A latency ODTLcwn8 (for BL8, fixed by MRS or selected OTF) or ODTLcwn4 (for BC4, fixed by MRS or selected
OTF) after the write command, termination strength RTT_Nom is selected.
Termination on/off timing is controlled via ODT pin and ODTLon, ODTLoff.
Table Latencies and Timing Parameters Relevant for Dynamic ODT shows latencies and timing parameters, which
are relevant for the on-die termination control in Dynamic ODT mode:
When ODT is asserted, it must remain high until ODTH4 is satisfied. If a write command is registered by the SDRAM
with ODT high, then ODT must remain high until ODTH4 (BC4) or ODTH8 (BL8) after the write command (see the
figure Synchronous ODT Timing Examples (2)). ODTH4 and ODTH8 are measured from ODT registered high to
ODT registered low or from the registration of a write command until ODT is registered low.
