3.4.3 Simulations
The target impedance of the DDR VDDIO is calculated as 240 mΩ, based on the values (see Power
Supply, page 38):
•V
SUPPLY
= 1.5V,
•I

= 250 mA
• Ripple = 5%
The impedance profile of the DDR VDDIO plane over frequency range is shown in the following figures.
The impedance improves with the decoupling capacitors provided. The target impedance of 0.3 Ω has
been achieved till 500 MHz.
