2. All MCK/MCK referenced measurements are made from the crossing of the two signals ±0.1 V.
3. ADDR/CMD includes all DDR SDRAM output signals except MCK/MCK, MCS, and MDQ/MECC/MDM/MDQS.
4. Note that t follows the symbol conventions described in note 1. For example, t describes the DDR timing (DD)

of the MDQS override bits (called WR_DATA_DELAY) in the TIMING_CFG_2 register. This will typically be set to the same
delay as in DDR_SDRAM_CLK_CNTL[CLK_ADJUST]. The timing parameters listed in the table assume that these 2
parameters have been set to the same adjustment value. See the MPC8548E PowerQUICC™ III Integrated Processor
Reference Manual for a description and understanding of the timing modifications enabled by use of these bits.
5. Determined by maximum possible skew between a data strobe (MDQS) and any corresponding bit of data (MDQ), ECC
(MECC), or data mask (MDM). The data strobe should be centered inside of the data eye at the pins of the microprocessor.
6. All outputs are referenced to the rising edge of MCK[n] at the pins of the microprocessor. Note that t

For the ADDR/CMD setup and hold specifications in Table 19, it is
assumed that the clock control register is set to adjust the memory clocks by
1/2 applied cycle.
