In the final installment of his article series "DDR5 Electrical and Timing Measurement Techniques," Randy White explores how following a standard workflow for setting up thresholds and timings to distinguish bursts in DDR5 memory interfaces can make design validation much more efficient, ultimately ensuring compliance with specifications and improving system margin by identifying and resolving any issues, especially those related to either read or write transactions.

This paper evaluates the performance of several choices of Reed-Solomon code and shows how a frame-interleaved RS(30,26) code can achieve 1e-15 bit-error rate (BER) in the presence of burst errors. See the authors conclude that, as data rates go higher, current 128b/130b encoding is not a good option as the two-bit 01/10 overhead suffers due to its Nyquist pattern property.
