I have no way to measure the signals (:.
So just formula computing:
If setting the value to 0x40, then tIH is (0x40 / 256.0) * (1000000000000.0/400000000.0) = 625ps.
If setting the value to 0x30, then tIH is (0x30 / 256.0) * (1000000000000.0/400000000.0) = 468.75ps.
Both value does not violate the LPDDR2 spec, bigger that 290ps which 800M date rate requires the minimum value.
I can not say which value is better. Anyway different board may have different value.
since you measured the signals, and value 0x30 is not good, I am ok with your change.
Regards,
Peng.
