EMIF device speed
The maximum EMIF speed on the device is 100 MHz. TI recommends utilizing I/O buffer information
specification (IBIS) to analyze all AC timings to determine if the maximum EMIF speed is achievable for a given
board layout. To properly use IBIS models to attain accurate timing analysis for a given system, see the Using
IBIS Models for Timing Analysis application report (literature number SPRA839).
For ease of design evaluation, Table 33 contains IBIS simulation results showing the maximum EMIF-SDRAM
interface speeds for the given example boards (TYPE) and SDRAM speed grades. Timing analysis should be
performed to verify that all AC timings are met for the specified board layout. Other configurations are also
possible, but again, timing analysis must be done to verify proper AC timings.
To maintain signal integrity, serial termination resistors should be inserted into all EMIF output signal lines (see
the Terminal Functions table for the EMIF output signals).
