DDR4 Controller Timing parameters in Xeon D1559

[KMANO3]

Hello Team,

We received HSPICE simulation models (545924-bdw-de-ddr4-si-model-rev0p95.zip) from Intel. We couldn't able to find the timing parameters for Intel Xeon D1559 in simulation file. Can you able to provide timing parameter for that?

Is any add-on or additional tools required to perform SI simulation apart from HSPICE? Pls confirm.

Thanks in Advance.

Hi Team,

Thanks for your prompt response.

We plan to use some other internal EDA tool (like HyperLynx, Sigrity). Is any add-on or additional tools required to perform SI simulation apart from HSPICE, in DDR4 simulation? Pls confirm.

Thanks in Advance,
