The following measurements can be made by triggering on the status
bit that indicates the start of Complex Read Calibration (cal_status[10]
= 1’b1
).
- Probe the write commands and read commands at the memory:
- Write: LDA#/LDB# = 0; RWA#/RWB# = 0
- Read: LDA#/LDB# = 0; RWA#/RWB# = 1
- Probe a data pin to check for data being returned from the QDR-IV.
- Probe the VREF level at the QDR-IV.
- Probe the read burst and check if the expected data pattern is being returned.
- Check for floating address pins if the expected data is not returned.
- Check for any stuck-at level issues on DQ pins whose signal level does not change. If at all possible probe at the receiver to check termination and signal integrity.
