2.4.4. Example: Swizzling for a x32 + ECC interface

Example: Swizzling for a x32 + ECC interface

Table 9.  
Scheme BL0 BL1 BL2 BL3 BL4 BL5 BL6 BL7
DDR4_AC_TOP DQ[4] DQ[3] DQ[2] DQ[1] AC1 AC2 AC0 sDQ[0]
DQS group number in byte swizzling notation 3 2 1 0 AC1 AC2 AC0 ECC
After Byte Swizzling 3 2 0 1 X X X ECC

In this example, BL7 cannot be swapped with other used DQS group. It is used as follows:

  • RUSER/WUSER Lane in x40 configuration
  • ECC Lane in x32 + ECC configuration

This example illustrates swizzling DQS group 1 (BL3) with DQS group 0 (BL2). To achieve this swizzling, enter the following BYTE_SWIZZLE_CH0 specification in the Pin Swizzle Map:

BYTE_SWIZZLE_CH0=3,2,0,1,X,X,X,ECC;

In DDR4 x32 + ECC configuration, the highest index DQS group is used as ECC lane. We use PIN_SWIZZLE_CH0_ECC for swizzle the DQ pins within the ECC lane in this case. Note that the valid value for pin swizzling specification in the ECC lane is always 0-7 only.

To achieve the pin swizzling shown in the above table, enter the following BYTE_SWIZZLE_CH0 specification in Pin Swizzle Map:

PIN_SWIZZLE_CH0_ECC=1,0,3,2,7,6,5,4;
