Table 2. Issue Definition and fix status for different devices
1. DOFF Pin Issue
• ISSUE DEFINITION
This issue involves the DLL not turning ON properly if a large resistor is used (eg:-10K
) as an external pullup
resistor to enable the DLL. If a 10K
or higher pullup resistor is used externally, the voltage on DOFF is not
high enough to enable the DLL.
• PARAMETERS AFFECTED
The functionality of the device will be affected because of the DLL is not turning ON properly. When the DLL
is enabled, all AC and DC parameters on the datasheet are met.
• TRIGGER CONDITION(S)
Having a 10K
or higher external pullup resistor for disabling the DOFF pin.
• SCOPE OF IMPACT
This issue will alter the normal functionality of the QDRII/DDRII devices when the DLL is disabled.
• EXPLANATION OF ISSUE
Figure 1 shows the DOFF pin circuit with an internal 5K
internal resistor. The fix planned is to disable the
internal 5K
leaker.
• WORKAROUND
2.
O/P Buffer enters a locked up unde-
fined state after controls or clocks are
left floating. No proper read/write
access can be done on the device
until a dummy read is performed.

The fix has been implemented on
the new revision and is now avail-
able.
3.
The EXTEST function in the JTAG
test fails when input K clock is floating
in the JTAG mode.

QDR-II/DDR-II Devices
The fix involved bypassing the ZQ
circuitry in JTAG mode. This was
done by overriding the ZQ circuit-
ry by the JTAG signal. The fix has
been implemented on the new re-
vision and is now available.
