Hi David,
From the sound of things, there wasn't any simulation done
on this, so I will start from that assumption. On the data
lines, did you perform termination at both ends of the net,
and if not, which end and why as this is a bidirectional net
and I assume that this is not write only memory 8-). What
can you tell us about the stackup of the board and what the
net topology is? If I had to take a wild guess at this point,
I might suspect the address or the controls/clock. You might
want to take a look at this. As these are unidirectional and
perhaps one load nets, you might want to attempt to terminate
at the load with a resistor network pack. This should be easy
to try in the lab. Have you checked the interface lines with
a scope yet? What do they look like? Your description is at
to high a level to solve right now.
Best Regards,
Michael
