3.5.2 DDR I/O DC electrical characteristics
The DDR I/O pads support LPDDR 4, DDR4, and DDR3L operational modes. The DDR Memory
Controller (DDRMC) is designed to be compatible with JEDEC-compliant SDRAMs.
DDRMC operation is contingent upon the board’s DDR design adherence to the DDR design and layout
requirements stated in the hardware development guide for the i.MX 8M Dual / 8M QuadLite / 8M Quad
application processor.

of the driving device and the V
REF
of the receiving device that determines noise margins.
However, in the case of V
