Figure 3–2 shows the Preset Editor dialog box for a DDR2 SDRAM.

The Advanced option is only available for Arria II GX and Stratix IV devices. This

option shows the percentage of memory specification that is calibrated by the FPGA.

The percentage values are estimated by Altera based on the process variation.
