5.5.2.2.2.7 High-Speed Bypass Capacitors
High-speed (HS) bypass capacitors are critical for proper DDR2 interface operation. It is particularly
important to minimize the parasitic series inductance of the HS bypass capacitors, AM335x device DDR2
power, and AM335x device DDR2 ground connections. Table 5-47 contains the specification for the HS
bypass capacitors as well as for the power connections on the PCB.

(1) LxW, 10-mil units; for example, a 0402 is a 40x20-mil surface-mount capacitor.
(2) An additional HS bypass capacitor can share the connection vias only if it is mounted on the opposite side of the board.
(3) These devices should be placed as close as possible to the device being bypassed.
(4) Per DDR2 device.
5.5.2.2.2.8 Net Classes
Table 5-48 lists the clock net classes for the DDR2 interface. Table 5-49 lists the signal net classes, and
associated clock net classes, for the signals in the DDR2 interface. These net classes are used for the
termination and routing rules that follow.
