DDR I/O Interleaving

Note:The processor supports I/O interleaving, which has the ability to swap DDR bytes for routing considerations. BIOS configures the I/O interleaving mode before DDR training.

There are two supported modes:

  • Interleave (IL)
  • Non-Interleave (NIL)

The following table and figure describe the pin mapping between the IL and NIL modes.
