3.2. DDR2 SDRAM Features
DDR2 SDRAM is a 4n prefetch architecture (internally the memory operates at half the interface frequency) with two data transfers per clock cycle. DDR2 SDRAM can use a single-ended or differential strobe, DQS or DQSn, which is associated with a group of data pins, and DQ for read and write operations. The DQS, DQSn, and DQ are bidirectional ports. Address ports are shared for read and write operations.
DDR2 SDRAM includes additional features such as increased bandwidth due to higher clock speeds, improved signal integrity on DIMMs with on-die terminations, and lower supply voltages to reduce power.
