The simulation results in Figure 41 are for the data circuit with a DDR device using
reduced drive strength and shows that the voltage waveform meets the DDR device
input voltage requirements. V

0.150 or 1.40 V are easily achieved at the receiver (IXP45X/IXP46X network
processors). The receiver waveform must also not exceed a maximum voltage of
V

=2.8 V or the minimum voltage of V
in(min)
=-0.3 V.
Waveform results for DDR_DEVICE2 are not shown as it is not relevant when reading
from DDR_DEVICE1. Due to the symmetry of the topology, waveform results when
reading from DDR_DEVICE2 would be identical to those when reading from
DDR_DEVICE1. When final routing data is available, simulation results for all receivers
are analyzed as variations in routing may result in differences. These differences should
be minimal.
