5.6.2.2.2.9 DDR2 Signal Termination
Signal terminations are required on the CK and ADDR_CTRL net class signals. Serial terminations should
be used on the CK and ADDR_CTRL lines and is the preferred termination scheme. On-device
terminations (ODTs) are required on the DQS[x] and DQ[x] net class signals. They should be enabled to
ensure signal integrity. Table 5-52 shows the specifications for the series terminators. Placement of serial
terminations for ADDR_CTRL net class signals should be close to the AM335x device.

(1) Only series termination is permitted.
(2) Series termination values larger than typical only recommended to address EMI issues.
(3) Series termination values should be uniform across net class.
(4) Zo is the DDR2 PCB trace characteristic impedance.
(5) No external termination resistors are allowed and ODT must be used for these net classes.
If the DDR2 interface is operated at a lower frequency (<200-MHz clock rate), on-device terminations are
not specifically required for the DQS[x] and DQ[x] net class signals and serial terminations for the CK and
ADDR_CTRL net class signals are not mandatory. System designers may evaluate the need for serial
terminators for EMI and overshoot reduction. Placement of serial terminations for DQS[x] and DQ[x] net
class signals should be determined based on PCB analysis. Placement of serial terminations for
ADDR_CTRL net class signals should be close to the AM335x device. Table 5-53 shows the
specifications for the serial terminators in such cases.
