摘要:
A memory module has a plurality of DRAMs (115), which share a bus line, on the front surface and the back surface of a board. The bus line is connected through a via hole (113) from a terminal (111) to one end of a strip line (112), and the other end of the strip line is connected to a strip line in the other layer through a via hole (119) provided for looping back the line. A termination resistor (120), provided near a termination voltage terminal (VTT), is connected to the looped-back strip line in the other layer through a via hole. The DRAM terminals are connected to the strip line each through a via hole. This memory module is mounted on a motherboard, on which a memory controller is provided, through a connector. The effective characteristic impedance of the bus line is matched with the characteristic impedance of the line in the motherboard.

Disclosed are a memory command address system and a memory module that can be operated not only for 266 MHzCLK but also for 200 MHzCLK, in which clock timings in the input sections of a PLL, a register, and a DRAM are matched to one another, a DLL (delay locked loop) is provided in the register, the output timing of CA signal from the register is controlled so that the setup time margin and the hold time margin of the CA signal with respect to the clock signal with the additional latency in the DRAM=1.5 or 2.0 are equated to each other, such that clock operation of 266 MHz, for example, is made possible. If both 266 MHz and 200 MHz are used, by taking account of the timing budget, control is made for retarding the timing of the CA signal input to the flip-flop which receives an internal clock signal (intCLK) supplied to the flip-flop for determining the CA signal output timing from the register. Alternatively, control is made for switching between the replica (replical) provided in the register and an output unit associated with the replica, depending on the frequency being used, so as to cope with both frequencies simply by providing one sort of the module and one sort of the register.

A memory module comprises a stab resistor between a pin and one end of a bus. A plurality of memory chips is connected to the bus between both ends thereof. A terminating resistor is connected to the other end of the bus. Stab resistance Rs of the stab resistor and terminating resistance Rterm of the terminating resistor are given by: Rs=(N−1)×Zeffdimm/N, and Rterm=Zeffdimm where N represents the number of the memory modules in a memory system; and Zeffdimm, effective impedance of a memory chip arrangement portion consisting of the bus and the memory chips. In the memory system, the memory modules are connected to a memory controller on a motherboard in a stab connection style. Wiring impedance Zmb of the motherboard is given by: Zmb=(2N−1)×Zeffdimm/N2.
摘要:
A maximum value of the number of mounted memory devices is assumed, and a value of an external delay replica is fixed and set. A desired frequency band is divided into a plurality of sub-frequency bands, and delay times of an output buffer and an internal delay replica are switched and used every sub-frequency band, thereby setting an actual maximum value and an actual minimum value to the internal delay replica. A selecting pin can select the delay time in the internal delay replica. Thus, it is possible to sufficiently ensure a set-up time and a hold time of an internal clock signal generated by a delay locked loop circuit in the latch operation in a register within a desired frequency band and with a permittable number of memory devices, irrespective of the frequency level and the number of mounted memory devices.

First and second pre-processing flip-flops latch a command/address signal inputted to a register by a clock having a frequency of ½ of an external clock signal and an inverse clock thereof. Thus, the command/address signal is decomprossed to a set of signals which temporarily has two times. For example, one of the set of signals has only data contents of an odd-th command/address signal, and the other has only data contents of an even-th command/address signal. Since the set of signals has twice periods of the command/address signal, first and second post-processing flip-flop can latch signals in accordance with an internal clock signal generated by a delay locked loop circuit in a state in which a set-up time and a hold time are sufficiently assured.
