2.4.2.2 DRAM Reference Layout
Maintaining DRAM trace length less than 4 inches is required to fulfill 133 MHz DRAM timing requirements. A placement
example of the VT82C694X chip and 3 DIMM slots is shown in Figure 2-43. The VT82C694X chip is located at the top of the
middle of 3 DIMM slots. The distance between the chip and the closest DIMM slot (DIMM3) is 0.55 inch. The distance between
the centers of two adjacent DIMM slots is 0.4 inch.
