I am working on high-speed PCB and I am new in this field. According to design routing guide I need to know what is trace 3x units Dielectric actually means
It is spacing from other signals but I am confused in 3x
Run clocks 3X from any other traces, generally you will only have space to route at 0.1mm/0.1mm, this is usual for todays dense high speed boards.
Use a PCB impedance calculator such as Saturn toolkit to determine the characteristic trace impedance....
With DDR interfaces you will very lucky if you have the room to route with a space of 3X the trace width, 1X is more likely.... Route the data lanes on different layers to the address and control signal. Micron has many guides for routing DDR interfaces I would suggest you go read them as well as other guides.
Also read JEDEC standard JESD79-3F. This has lots of information. If you got login with JEDEC then download their sample layout examples. Another important thing you should check if your uC supports 'Write Levelling' to connect DDR3.
