Altium – How to use xSignals ( in Fly-By, T-Branch + Other useful things )

This video explains how to setup xSignals and do length matching in Fly-by & T-Branch DDR3 memory layout. It also shows how to setup xSignals with passive components (e.g. series termination resistors or AC coupling capacitors) + adds some comments on how xSignals calculates the length and what is useful about them. Try the examples … Continue reading Altium – How to use xSignals ( in Fly-By, T-Branch + Other useful things ) →

DDR3 layout vs Memory chip fitting

Have you been thinking about leaving some of the memory chips un-fitted on your board and you were not sure if it's possible or how the layout should be done to support it? I have received this question for couple of times, so I try to share what we tested and what we do. We … Continue reading DDR3 layout vs Memory chip fitting →
