The XSDB output can be used to determine the available read and write margins during calibration. Starting with 2014.3, an XSDB Memory IP GUI is available through the Hardware Manager to view the read calibration margins for both rising edge clock and failing edge clock. The margins are provided for both simple and complex pattern calibration. The complex pattern results are more representative of the margin expected during post calibration traffic.
