3.1 LPDDR4 Introduction

LPDDR4 is an SDRAM device specification governed by the JEDEC standard JESD209-4, Low Power Double Data Rate 4 (LPDDR4). This standard strives to reduce power and improve signal integrity by implementing a lower voltage I/O power rail, employing ODT on the Command/Address bus, and reducing the overall width of the Command/Address bus, among other features. Unlike other DDR types, LPDDR4 has been organized into 16-bit channels.

The following sections detail the routing specification and layout guidelines for an LPDDR4 interface.
