9.7.1.2 DDR2 Clock Group Signals - DDR_CLK[5:0]/DDR_CLK#[5:0]
The clock signal group includes six differential clock pairs per channel. The EP80579
generates and drives these differential clock signals. Since the EP80579 supports both
registered and unbuffered DDR2 DIMMs, three separate differential clock pairs are
routed to each DIMM connector. Table 40 summarizes the clock signal mapping, and
Figure 79 shows the clock interconnect between the EP80579 and the DIMMs.
