5.6 Selecting B_DDR3D_XX Write Data Sample Points

Unlike valid DDR Read data, valid Write data is bisected by the Strobes. Since valid DDR3 Write data is bisected by the Strobes (see Figure 5) the Setup & Hold sample point must be set for the valid data that occurs closest to the clock edge. The appropriate clock edge for Writes is determined by counting the number of clock cycles specified by the Write Latency MRS value from the Write Command to the first valid Write Data. (If these values are not known the technique described in Section 7.3 can be used to determine them.) In Figure 5 the total Write latency is 6 cycles (Write Latency plus the additional one cycle delay for RDIMM memory).
