Termination

Termination

DDR2 Memory

The DDR2 interface signals have a single 56

Ω termination. Resistors tied

to a termination voltage of 0.9 V are called VTT. This termination scheme
is referred to as a Class I termination. The DDR2 components also provide
an optional on-chip termination of 50, 75, or 150

Ω.

QDRII Memory

The QDRII interface signals do not have board-level termination
resistors. Instead, the QDRII interface is terminated using the 50

Ω output

impedance settings available on both the Stratix II GX device and the
QDRII SRAM device. This approach simplifies board routing and lowers
power consumption.

PCI Express

The PCI Express signals have 100

Ω differential traces terminated on the

receive-side using internal termination resistors in the Stratix II GX
receiver pins.
