Do you need DDR4 Write CRC?-June 25, 2015 |
A customer asked us, “Do I need DDR4 write CRC beyond a certain frequency?”
The answer is far from simple; it’s dependent on many factors including the type of system it is, the other types of error correction (ECC) that may be in use, the system’s tolerance of errors, and the system’s ability to spare the bandwidth required for the write CRC function. Since I’ve been asked a few times and since the answer is so complex, I created the flowchart here to show some paths through the possible choices.
