CY7C1513KV18-300BZI

Memory IC Overview

The CY7C1513KV18 is a 72-Mbit QDR II SRAM with a four-word burst architecture, organized as 4M x 18. It features separate independent read and write data ports supporting concurrent transactions. The device operates at a maximum clock frequency of 300 MHz for the specified speed grade, utilizing double data rate interfaces on both ports to achieve 600 MHz effective data transfer rates. It employs two input clocks (K and K) for precise timing and includes echo clocks (CQ and CQ) to simplify data capture in high-speed systems.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Separate independent read and write data ports enable concurrent transactions without bus turnaround
• Four-word burst architecture reduces address bus frequency while maximizing data throughput
• Double data rate interfaces on both read and write ports support high-bandwidth operations
• Echo clocks simplify data capture in high-speed system designs

Memory IC Applications

• High-performance networking equipment requiring low-latency memory access
• Telecommunications infrastructure utilizing QDR II architecture
• Industrial automation systems needing synchronous pipelined SRAM
• Test and measurement instruments requiring fast data buffering

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific speed grade suffix matches the required operating frequency, as the datasheet lists multiple grades including 333 MHz and 300 MHz variants. Confirm package availability, noting that Cypress offers both Pb-free and non-Pb-free options for the 165-ball FBGA. Ensure voltage requirements align with the core VDD of 1.8 V and I/O VDDQ range of 1.4 V to VDD. Check for JTAG compatibility if test access port functionality is required for production testing.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a 4M x 18 organization is required within the QDR II family. Compare against CY7C1526KV18 (8M x 9) and CY7C1515KV18 (2M x 36) based on interface width needs. Consider the DOFF pin configuration to determine between one-cycle or 1.5-cycle read latency modes. Verify that the system can support the necessary dual-clock input structure for optimal performance.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the Infineon (formerly Cypress) QDR II SRAM family, which provides high-speed synchronous memory solutions. The family shares a common architectural foundation but varies in density and data width configurations. The CY7C1513KV18 specifically targets applications requiring an 18-bit data path with deep memory arrays, fitting between the narrower 9-bit and wider 36-bit options in terms of system integration complexity.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same family include CY7C1526KV18 and CY7C1515KV18, though these differ in organization and pinout compatibility due to varying data widths. No other cross-family replacements are documented in the provided source material.
