7.2.5 RCVENIN and RCVENOUT
The Receive Enable In (RCVENIN) and Receive Enable Out (RCVENOUT) should be
connected and routed to match the length of the clock signal plus the average data
signal trace. This length matching is important to insure the signal propagation delay of
RCVENIN/RCVENOUT is the same as that for the clock plus average DQ length.
Table 40 identifies the transmission line lengths for the RCVENIN/RCVENOUT topology
shown in Table 49. These lengths were chosen from the previous clock and data group
simulation topologies.
