CY7C1515V18-167BZXI

Memory IC Overview

The CY7C1515V18-167BZXI is a 72-Mbit QDR-II synchronous pipelined SRAM with a 2M x 36 organization. It supports a maximum operating frequency of 167 MHz and operates within a core voltage range of 1.7 V to 1.9 V. The device utilizes a 165-ball FBGA package measuring 15 x 17 x 1.4 mm. It features separate independent read and write data ports, supporting concurrent transactions and double data rate interfaces on both ports.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• QDR-II architecture with separate read and write ports for concurrent operations
• 4-word burst architecture reducing address bus frequency requirements
• Double Data Rate (DDR) interfaces on both read and write ports
• Echo clocks (CQ and CQ) simplify data capture in high-speed systems

Memory IC Applications

• High-bandwidth networking equipment
• Telecommunications infrastructure
• Data communication systems requiring low latency

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix BZXI against official Infineon documentation to confirm lead-free status and exact temperature grade. Ensure compatibility with system voltage levels and clock frequencies before integration. Cross-reference part numbers with current datasheets as product availability may change.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring high throughput with independent read and write paths. The 167 MHz speed grade offers a balance between performance and power consumption compared to higher frequency variants. Ensure the design accommodates the 165-ball FBGA footprint and thermal requirements.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the CY7C1515V18 family of 72-Mbit QDR-II SRAMs. It shares architectural similarities with other members like CY7C1511V18 and CY7C1513V18 but differs in organization and pin count. The family is designed for high-speed memory applications using Cypress/Infineon proprietary QDR technology.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other speed grades within the CY7C1515V18 series such as CY7C1515V18-200BZI or CY7C1515V18-250BZI, provided timing constraints are met. Verify pinout and electrical specifications match exactly.
