1. Operating Temperature is the case surface temperature on the center/top side of the DRAM. For the measurement conditions, please refer to
JESD51.2 standard.
2. At 85 - 95 °C operation temperature range, doubling refresh commands in frequency to a 32ms period ( tREFI=3.9 us ) is required, and to enter to
self refresh mode at this temperature range, an EMRS command is required to change internal refresh rate.

Note :
1. VID(AC) specifies the input differential voltage |VTR -VCP | required for switching, where VTR is the true input signal (such as CK, DQS, LDQS or UDQS)
and VCP is the complementary input signal (such as CK, DQS, LDQS or UDQS). The minimum value is equal to VIH (AC) - VIL(AC).
2. The typical value of VIX(AC) is expected to be about 0.5 * VDDQ of the transmitting device and VIX(AC) is expected to track variations in VDDQ . VIX(AC)
indicates the voltage at which differential input signals must cross.

1. Absolute Specifications (0°C ≤ TCASE ≤ +95°C; VDD = +1.8V ±0.1V, VDDQ = +1.8V ±0.1V)
2. Impedance measurement condition for output source DC current: VDDQ = 1.7V; VOUT = 1420mV; (VOUT-VDDQ)/Ioh must be less than 23.4 ohms for
values of VOUT between VDDQ and VDDQ- 280mV. Impedance measurement condition for output sink dc current: VDDQ = 1.7V; VOUT = 280mV;
VOUT/Iol must be less than 23.4 ohms for values of VOUT between 0V and 280mV.
3. Mismatch is absolute value between pull-up and pull-down, both are measured at same temperature and voltage.
4. Slew rate measured from VIL(AC) to VIH(AC).
5. The absolute value of the slew rate as measured from DC to DC is equal to or greater than the slew rate as measured from AC to AC. This is
guaranteed by design and characterization.
6. This represents the step size when the OCD is near 18 ohms at nominal conditions across all process and represents only the DRAM uncertainty.

a) Output slew rate for falling and rising edges is measured between VTT - 250 mV and VTT + 250 mV for single ended signals. For differential signals
(e.g. DQS - DQS) output slew rate is measured between DQS - DQS = - 500 mV and DQS - DQS = + 500 mV. Output slew rate is guaranteed by
design, but is not necessarily tested on each device.
b) Input slew rate for single ended signals is measured from VREF(DC) to VIH(AC),min for rising edges and from VREF(DC) to VIL(AC),max for falling
edges. For differential signals (e.g. CK - CK) slew rate for rising edges is measured from CK - CK = - 250 mV to CK - CK = + 500 mV (+ 250 mV to -
500 mV for falling edges).
c) VID is the magnitude of the difference between the input voltage on CK and the input voltage on CK, or between DQS and DQS for differential strobe.

5. AC timings are for linear signal transitions. See Specific Notes on derating for other signal transitions.
7. These parameters guarantee device behavior, but they are not necessarily tested on each device.
They may be guaranteed by device design or tester correlation.
8. Tests for AC timing, IDD, and electrical (AC and DC) characteristics, may be conducted at nominal reference/supply voltage levels, but the related
specifications and device operation are guaranteed for the full voltage range specified.
1. User can choose which active power down exit timing to use via MRS (bit 12). tXARD is expected to be used for fast active power down exit timing.
tXARDS is expected to be used for slow active power down exit timing.
2. AL = Additive Latency.
3. This is a minimum requirement. Minimum read to precharge timing is AL + BL / 2 provided that the tRTP and tRAS(min) have been satisfied.
5. Timings are specified with command/address input slew rate of 1.0 V/ns.
6. Timings are specified with DQs, DM, and DQS’s (DQS/RDQS in single ended mode) input slew rate of 1.0V/ns.
7. Timings are specified with CK/CK differential slew rate of 2.0 V/ns. Timings are guaranteed for DQS signals with a differential slew rate of 2.0 V/ns in
differential strobe mode and a slew rate of 1.0 V/ns in single ended mode.
Setup (tDS) nominal slew rate for a rising signal is defined as the slew rate between the last crossing of VREF(DC) and the first crossing of VIH(AC)min.
Setup (tDS) nominal slew rate for a falling signal is defined as the slew rate between the last crossing of VREF(DC) and the first crossing of VIL(AC)max.
If the actual signal is always earlier than the nominal slew rate line between shaded ’VREF(DC) to ac region’, use nominal slew rate for derating value
(See Figure 5 for differential data strobe and Figure 6 for single-ended data strobe.) If the actual signal is later than the nominal slew rate line anywhere
between shaded ’VREF(DC) to ac region’, the slew rate of a tangent line to the actual signal from the ac level to dc level is used for derating value (see
Figure 7 for differential data strobe and Figure 8 for single-ended data strobe)
Hold (tDH) nominal slew rate for a rising signal is defined as the slew rate between the last crossing of VIL(DC)max and the first crossing of VREF(DC).
Hold (tDH) nominal slew rate for a falling signal is defined as the slew rate between the last crossing of VIH(DC)min and the first crossing of VREF(DC). If
the actual signal is always later than the nominal slew rate line between shaded ’dc level to VREF(DC) region’, use nominal slew rate for derating value
(see Figure 9 for differential data strobe and Figure 10 for single-ended data strobe) If the actual signal is earlier than the nominal slew rate line anywhere
between shaded ’dc to VREF(DC) region’, the slew rate of a tangent line to the actual signal from the dc level to VREF(DC) level is used for derating value
(see Figure 11 for differential data strobe and Figure 12 for single-ended data strobe)
Although for slow slew rates the total setup time might be negative (i.e. a valid input signal will not have reached VIH/IL(AC) at the time of the rising clock
transition) a valid input signal is still required to complete the transition and reach VIH/IL(AC).
For slew rates in between the values listed in Tables 1, 2 and 3, the derating values may obtained by linear interpolation.
These values are typically not subject to production test. They are verified by design and characterization.

Setup (tIS) nominal slew rate for a rising signal is defined as the slew rate between the last crossing of VREF(DC) and the first crossing of VIH(AC)min.
Setup (tIS) nominal slew rate for a falling signal is defined as the slew rate between the last crossing of VREF(DC) and the first crossing of VIL(AC)max. If
the actual signal is always earlier than the nominal slew rate line between shaded ’VREF(DC) to ac region’, use nominal slew rate for derating value (see
Figure 13). If the actual signal is later than the nominal slew rate line anywhere between shaded ’VREF(DC) to ac region’, the slew rate of a tangent line to
the actual signal from the ac level to dc level is used for derating value (see Figure 14).
Hold (tIH) nominal slew rate for a rising signal is defined as the slew rate between the last crossing of VIL(DC)max and the first crossing of VREF(DC).
Hold (tIH) nominal slew rate for a falling signal is defined as the slew rate between the last crossing of VIH(DC)min and the first crossing of VREF(DC). If
the actual signal is always later than the nominal slewrate line between shaded ’dc to VREF(DC) region’, use nominal slew rate for derating value (see Fig-
ure 15). If the actual signal is earlier than the nominal slew rate line anywhere between shaded ’dc to VREF(DC) region’, the slew rate of a tangent line to
the actual signal from the dc level to VREF(DC) level is used for derating value (see Figure 16).
Although for slow slew rates the total setup time might be negative (i.e. a valid input signal will not have reached VIH/IL(AC) at the time of the rising clock
transition) a valid input signal is still required to complete the transition and reach VIH/IL(AC).
For slew rates in between the values listed in Tables 4 and 5, the derating values may obtained by linear interpolation.
These values are typically not subject to production test. They are verified by design and characterization.

11. MIN ( tCL, tCH) refers to the smaller of the actual clock LOW time and the actual clock HIGH time as provided to the device (i.e. this value can be
greater than the minimum specification limits for tCL and tCH). For example, tCL and tCH are = 50% of the period, less the half period jitter ( tJIT(HP))
of the clock source, and less the half period jitter due to crosstalk ( tJIT(crosstalk)) into the clock traces.
13. tDQSQ: Consists of data pin skew and output pattern effects, and p-channel to n-channel variation of the output drivers as well as output slew rate
mismatch between DQS/ DQS and associated DQ in any given cycle.
14. tDAL = WR + RU{ tRP[ns] / tCK[ns] }, where RU stands for round up.
WR refers to the tWR parameter stored in the MRS. For tRP, if the result of the division is not already an integer, round up to the next highest integer.
tCK refers to the application clock period.
15. The clock frequency is allowed to change during self refresh mode or precharge power-down mode.
16. ODT turn on time min is when the device leaves high impedance and ODT resistance begins to turn on. ODT turn on time max is when the ODT resis-
tance is fully on. Both are measured from tAOND, which is interpreted differently per speed bin. For DDR2-400/533, tAOND is 10 ns (= 2 x 5 ns) after
the clock edge that registered a first ODT HIGH if tCK = 5 ns. For DDR2-667/800, tAOND is 2 clock cycles after the clock edge that registered a first
ODT HIGH counting the actual input clock edges.
17. ODT turn off time min is when the device starts to turn off ODT resistance. ODT turn off time max is when the bus is in high impedance. Both are mea-
sured from tAOFD, which is interpreted differently per speed bin. For DDR2-400/533, tAOFD is 12.5 ns (= 2.5 x 5 ns) after the clock edge that regis-
tered a first ODT LOW if tCK = 5 ns. For DDR2-667/800, if tCK(avg) = 3 ns is assumed, tAOFD is 1.5 ns (= 0.5 x 3 ns) after the second trailing clock
edge counting from the clock edge that registered a first ODT LOW and by counting the actual input clock edges.
18. tHZ and tLZ transitions occur in the same access time as valid data transitions. These parameters are referenced to a specific voltage level which
specifies when the device output is no longer driving (tHZ), or begins driving (tLZ) . Figure 17 shows a method to calculate the point when device is no
longer driving (tHZ), or beginsdriving (tLZ) by measuring the signal at two different voltages. The actual voltage measurement points are not critical as
long as the calculation is consistent. tLZ(DQ) refers to tLZ of the DQS and tLZ(DQS) refers to tLZ of the (U/L/R)DQS and (U/L/R)DQS each treated as
single-ended signal.
19. tRPST end point and tRPRE begin point are not referenced to a specific voltage level but specify when the device output is no longer driving (tRPST),
or begins driving (tRPRE). Figure 17 shows a method to calculate these points when the device is no longer driving (tRPST), or begins driving
(tRPRE) by measuring the signal at two different voltages. The actual voltage measurement points are not critical as long as the calculation is consistent.

21. Input waveform timing tDH with differential data strobe enabled MR[bit10]=0, is referenced from the differential data strobe crosspoint to the input signal crossing
at the VIH(DC) level for a falling signal and from the differential data strobe crosspoint to the input signal crossing at the VIL(DC) level for a rising signal applied to
the device under test. DQS, DQS signals must be monotonic between VIL(DC)max and VIH(DC)min. See Figure 18.

25. Input waveform timing with single-ended data strobe enabled MR[bit10] = 1, is referenced from the input signal crossing at the VIH(AC) level to the
single-ended data strobe crossing VIH/L(DC) at the start of its transition for a rising signal, and from the input signal crossing at the VIL(AC) level to
the single-ended data strobe crossing VIH/L(DC) at the start of its transition for a falling signal applied to the device under test. The DQS signal must
be monotonic between VIL(DC)max and VIH(DC)min.
26. Input waveform timing with single-ended data strobe enabled MR[bit10] = 1, is referenced from the input signal crossing at the VIH(DC) level to the
single-ended data strobe crossing VIH/L(AC) at the end of its transition for a rising signal, and from the input signal crossing at the VIL(DC) level to the
single-ended data strobe crossing VIH/L(AC) at the end of its transition for a falling signal applied to the device under test. The DQS signal must be
monotonic between VIL(DC)max and VIH(DC)min.
27. tCKEmin of 3 clocks means CKE must be registered on three consecutive positive clock edges. CKE must remain at the valid input level the entire
time it takes to achieve the 3 clocks of registration. Thus, after any CKE transition, CKE may not transition from its valid level during the time period
of tIS + 2 x tCK + tIH.
28. If tDS or tDH is violated, data corruption may occur and the data must be re-written with valid data before a valid READ can be executed.
29. These parameters are measured from a command/address signal (CKE, CS, RAS, CAS, WE, ODT, BA0, A0, A1, etc.) transition edge to its respec-
tive clock signal (CK/CK) crossing. The spec values are not affected by the amount of clock jitter applied (i.e. tJIT(per), tJIT(cc), etc.), as the setup
and hold are relative to the clock signal crossing that latches the command/address. That is, these parameters should be met whether clock jitter is
present or not.
30. These parameters are measured from a data strobe signal ((L/U/R)DQS/DQS) crossing to its respective clock signal (CK/CK) crossing. The spec val-
ues are not affected by the amount of clock jitter applied (i.e. tJIT(per), tJIT(cc), etc.), as these are relative to the clock signal crossing. That is, these
parameters should be met whether clock jitter is present or not.
31. These parameters are measured from a data signal ((L/U)DM, (L/U)DQ0, (L/U)DQ1, etc.) transition edge to its respective data strobe signal ((L/U/
R)DQS/DQS) crossing.
32. For these parameters, the DDR2 SDRAM device is characterized and verified to support tnPARAM = RU{tPARAM / tCK(avg)}, which is in clock
cycles, assuming all input clock jitter specifications are satisfied.
For example, the device will support tnRP = RU{tRP / tCK(avg)}, which is in clock cycles, if all input clock jitter specifications are met. This means:
For DDR2-667 5-5-5, of which tRP = 15ns, the device will support tnRP = RU{tRP / tCK(avg)} = 5, i.e. as long as the input clock jitter specifications
are met, Precharge command at Tm and Active command at Tm+5 is valid even if (Tm+5 - Tm) is less than 15ns due to input clock jitter.
33. tDAL [nCK] = WR [nCK] + tnRP [nCK] = WR + RU {tRP [ps] / tCK(avg) [ps] }, where WR is the value programmed in the mode register set.
34. New units, ’tCK(avg)’ and ’nCK’, are introduced in DDR2-667 and DDR2-800. Unit ’tCK(avg)’ represents the actual tCK(avg) of the input clock under
operation. Unit ’nCK’ represents one clock cycle of the input clock, counting the actual clock edges.
Note that in DDR2-400 and DDR2-533, ’tCK’ is used for both concepts.
ex) tXP = 2 [nCK] means; if Power Down exit is registered at Tm, an Active command may be registered at Tm+2, even if (Tm+2 - Tm) is 2 x
tCK(avg) + tERR(2per),min.
35. Input clock jitter spec parameter. These parameters and the ones in the table below are referred to as 'input clock jitter spec parameters' and these
parameters apply to DDR2-667 and DDR2-800 only. The jitter specified is a random jitter meeting a Gaussian distribution.

37. tHP is the minimum of the absolute half period of the actual input clock. tHP is an input parameter but not an input specification parameter. It is used
in conjunction with tQHS to derive the DRAM output timing tQH. The value to be used for tQH calculation is determined by the following equation;
tHP = Min ( tCH(abs), tCL(abs) ),
where,
tCH(abs) is the minimum of the actual instantaneous clock HIGH time;
tCL(abs) is the minimum of the actual instantaneous clock LOW time;
40. When the device is operated with input clock jitter, this parameter needs to be derated by the actual tERR(6-10per) of the input clock. (output derat-
ings are relative to the SDRAM input clock.)
For example, if the measured jitter into a DDR2-667 SDRAM has tERR(6-10per)min = - 272 ps and tERR(6-10per)max = + 293 ps, then tDQSCK-
min(derated) = tDQSCKmin - tERR(6-10per)max = - 400 ps - 293 ps = - 693 ps and tDQSCKmax(derated) = tDQSCKmax - tERR(6-10per)min = 400
ps + 272 ps = + 672 ps. Similarly, tLZ(DQ) for DDR2-667 derates to tLZ(DQ)min(derated) = - 900 ps - 293 ps = - 1193 ps and tLZ(DQ)max(derated) =
450 ps + 272 ps = + 722 ps.
41. When the device is operated with input clock jitter, this parameter needs to be derated by the actual tJIT(per) of the input clock. (output deratings are
relative to the SDRAM input clock.)
For example, if the measured jitter into a DDR2-667 SDRAM has tJIT(per)min = - 72 ps and tJIT(per)max = + 93 ps, then tRPREmin(derated) =
tRPREmin + tJIT(per)min = 0.9 x tCK(avg) - 72 ps = + 2178 ps and tRPREmax(derated) = tRPREmax + tJIT(per)max = 1.1 x tCK(avg) + 93 ps = +
2843 ps.
42. When the device is operated with input clock jitter, this parameter needs to be derated by the actual tJIT(duty) of the input clock. (output deratings are
relative to the SDRAM input clock.)
For example, if the measured jitter into a DDR2-667 SDRAM has tJIT(duty),min = - 72 ps and tJIT(duty)max = + 93 ps, then tRPSTmin(derated) =
tRPSTmin + tJIT(duty)min = 0.4 x tCK(avg) - 72 ps = + 928 ps and tRPSTmax(derated) = tRPSTmax + tJIT(duty)max = 0.6 x tCK(avg) + 93 ps = +
1592 ps.
43. When the device is operated with input clock jitter, this parameter needs to be derated by { - tJIT(duty)max - tERR(6-10per)max } and { - tJIT(duty)min
- tERR(6-10per)min } of the actual input clock. (output deratings are relative to the SDRAM input clock.)
For example, if the measured jitter into a DDR2-667 SDRAM has tERR(6-10per)min = - 272 ps, tERR(6- 10per)max = + 293 ps, tJIT(duty)min = - 106
ps and tJIT(duty)max = + 94 ps, then tAOFmin(derated) = tAOFmin + { - tJIT(duty)max - tERR(6-10per)max } = - 450 ps + { - 94 ps - 293 ps} = - 837
ps and tAOFmax(derated) = tAOFmax + { - tJIT(duty)min - tERR(6-10per)min } = 1050 ps + { 106 ps + 272 ps } = + 1428 ps.
45. For tAOFD of DDR2-667/800, the 1/2 clock of nCK in the 2.5 x nCK assumes a tCH(avg), average input clock HIGH pulse width of 0.5 relative to
tCK(avg). tAOFmin and tAOFmax should each be derated by the same amount as the actual amount of tCH(avg) offset present at the DRAM input
with respect to 0.5.
For example, if an input clock has a worst case tCH(avg) of 0.48, the tAOFmin should be derated by subtracting 0.02 x tCK(avg) from it, whereas if an
input clock has a worst case tCH(avg) of 0.52, the tAOFmax should be derated by adding 0.02 x tCK(avg) to it. Therefore, we have;
tAOFmin(derated) = tACmin - [0.5 - Min(0.5, tCH(avg)min)] x tCK(avg)
tAOFmax(derated) = tACmax + 0.6 + [Max(0.5, tCH(avg)max) - 0.5] x tCK(avg)
tAOFmin(derated) = Min(tACmin, tACmin - [0.5 - tCH(avg)min] x tCK(avg))
tAOFmax(derated) = 0.6 + Max(tACmax, tACmax + [tCH(avg)max - 0.5] x tCK(avg))
where tCH(avg),min and tCH(avg),max are the minimum and maximum of tCH(avg) actually measured at the DRAM input balls.
Note that these deratings are in addition to the tAOF derating per input clock jitter, i.e. tJIT(duty) and tERR(6-10per). However tAC values used in the
equations shown above are from the timing parameter table and are not derated. Thus the final derated values for tAOF are;
tAOFmin(derated_final) = tAOFmin(derated) + { - tJIT(duty)max - tERR(6-10per)max }
tAOFmax(derated_final) = tAOFmax(derated) + { - tJIT(duty)min - tERR(6-10per)min }
