EM6AA160BKE-4IH

Memory IC Overview

The EM6AA160BKE-4IH is a DDR SDRAM memory integrated circuit manufactured by Etron Technology, Inc. It features a total memory density of 256 Mbit, organized as 32M x 16 bits. The device supports a maximum data rate of 250 MHz with a typical access time of 700 ps (0.7 ns). It utilizes a 60-pin Fine-Pitch Ball Grid Array (FBGA) package measuring 8x13 mm. The component operates in synchronous mode and includes auto-refresh capabilities.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Supports parallel interface for high-speed data transfer
• Includes automatic and self-refresh modes for power management
• Utilizes four-bank page burst access architecture

Memory IC Applications

• Embedded systems requiring compact memory solutions
• Portable electronic devices with space constraints
• Industrial control equipment needing reliable SDRAM

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'IH' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm pinout compatibility and electrical specifications. Ensure the selected variant matches the required operating temperature range and voltage levels for your specific application design before finalizing procurement.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a 256 Mbit capacity with a 16-bit width is required in a small form factor. The 60-FBGA package is suitable for surface-mount applications where board space is limited. Confirm that the system controller supports DDR SDRAM protocols and can handle the 250 MHz operational frequency.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to Etron's DDR SDRAM family, designed for general-purpose memory applications. It complements other variants in the series that may offer different densities or package types. The FBGA packaging provides robust mechanical stability and thermal performance compared to traditional plastic leaded packages.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes within the EM6AA160 series from Etron or cross-reference with industry-standard DDR parts. Verify pin-to-pin compatibility and identical timing parameters before substitution.
