Tony,

KZ's statement "The signals switch at 800 MHz. Only the clocks switch at 400 MHz" is true. Both edges of the clock are utilized in latching the data. Two sets of 16bits of data get sent/received during each clock pulse. The first 16 bits of data is set up on the data bus prior to the rising edge of the clock and then the signals on the data bus are switched to reflect the next 16 bits of data prior to the falling edge of the clock. This gives a transfer rate of 16 bits @ 800MHz and a 800MHz signal rate on the data bus.

Regards,
Goutama
