Table 31 lists the memory output clock jitter specifications for Cyclone V devices.
The memory output clock jitter measurements are for 200 consecutive clock cycles, as
specified in the JEDEC DDR2/DDR3 SDRAM standard.
The memory output clock jitter is applicable when an input jitter of 30 ps (p-p) is
applied with bit error rate (BER) 10–12, equivalent to 14 sigma.
Altera recommends using the UniPHY intellectual property (IP) with PHYCLK
connections for better jitter performance.
