1.1.16.2. Maximum Number of DDR2 SDRAM Interfaces Supported per FPGA

The following table lists the maximum number of ×8 DDR2 SDRAM components that can be fitted in the smallest and biggest devices and pin packages assuming the device is blank.

Each interface of size n, where n is a multiple of 8, consists of:

  • n DQ pins (including ECC)
  • n/8 DM pins
  • n/8 DQS, DQSn pin pairs
  • 18 address pins
  • 7 command pins (CAS#, RAS#, WE#, CKE, ODT, and CS#)
  • 1 CK, CK# pin pair up to every three ×8 DDR2 components
