CY7C1041G18-15BVXI

Memory IC Overview

The CY7C1041G18-15BVXI is a 4-Mbit (256K words × 16-bit) asynchronous static RAM manufactured by Infineon Technologies. It operates within a voltage range of 1.65 V to 2.2 V and features a 15 ns access time. The device utilizes a 48-ball VFBGA package with dimensions of 6 × 8 × 1.0 mm. It includes embedded Error-Correcting Code (ECC) for single-bit error correction and supports data retention at 1.0 V.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Embedded ECC circuitry provides automatic detection and correction of single-bit errors during read operations.
• Supports low-voltage operation ranging from 1.65 V to 2.2 V with 1.0-V data retention capability.
• Features TTL-compatible inputs and outputs for interface flexibility.
• Designed for industrial temperature ranges spanning -40 °C to +85 °C.

Memory IC Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring high reliability
• Telecommunications equipment memory buffers
• Automotive electronics applications
• Network infrastructure storage

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix BVXI corresponds to the 48-ball VFBGA package configuration. Confirm that the '18' designation matches the required 1.65 V to 2.2 V operating voltage range. Ensure the absence of the 'E' suffix indicates no ERR pin is present on this specific variant. Cross-reference the lead time and availability status directly with authorized Infineon distributors before finalizing procurement plans.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a 4-Mbit capacity with 16-bit width is required in a compact VFBGA footprint. It is suitable for designs needing low-power operation between 1.65 V and 2.2 V. The integrated ECC feature makes it ideal for environments where data integrity is critical without external logic. Verify compatibility with system voltage levels and thermal requirements for the industrial grade specification.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the CY7C1041G family of fast asynchronous SRAMs. It shares architectural similarities with other variants like the CY7C1041G30-10BVXI, differing primarily in operating voltage and speed specifications. The device represents Infineon's continuation of Cypress Semiconductor's legacy memory portfolio, maintaining functional compatibility while updating manufacturing processes.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

CY7C1041G18-15BVXT serves as the tape-and-reel alternative to the bulk packaged version. Other voltage variants such as CY7C1041G30-10BVXI or CY7C1041G-10BVXI offer different electrical characteristics but share the same physical package and pinout layout.
