Figure 10. DDR#2 memory port architecture
The following are the characteristics of the DDR4 ports available on the LX2160ARDB:
• Each DDR4 port provides two DIMM connectors (DIMM#1 and DIMM#2), each supporting an industry-standard, 288-pin,
JEDEC-compliant DDR4 UDIMM or RDIMM module with 8-/16-bit data width:
— DDR#1 port DIMM#1 connector (J14) / DDR#2 port DIMM#1 connector (J17) supports four chip selects
(D1_MCS_B[0:3] / D2_MCS_B[0:3]) for single-, dual-, and quad-rank DDR4 memory modules
Quad rank is only supported if the second DIMM connector of a DDR4 port is left unused.
NOTE
— DDR#1 port DIMM#2 connector (J15) / DDR#2 port DIMM#2 connector (J16) supports two chip selects
(D1_MCS_B[2:3] / D2_MCS_B[2:3]) for single- and dual-rank DDR4 memory modules
• Operates at up to 3.2 GigaTransfers/second (GT/s)
• Supports 64-bit data bus
• Supports double-bit error detection and single-bit error correction ECC (8-bit check word across 64-bit data)
• Supports only DDR4 memory
• Supports 4-bit memory devices with minor board modification to remove pull-down resistors that are mounted on the D1 or
D2 MDQS[9:17]_N traces
