• Complies with JEDEC standards and supports write leveling and ZQ calibration functions.

Memory IC Applications

• Industrial embedded systems requiring wide I/O interfaces
• High-performance computing memory modules
• Consumer electronics utilizing DDR3L architectures

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific speed grade suffix matches system requirements; the -10IH variant denotes 933MHz operation. Confirm industrial temperature rating (-40°C to +95°C) aligns with environmental constraints. Ensure power supply sequencing adheres to the initialization sequence outlined in the datasheet, particularly regarding RESET# duration and voltage ramp times. Validate package dimensions against PCB footprint specifications.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a 4Gb density with 16-bit I/O width is required for DDR3L applications. The -10IH designation indicates the 933MHz speed bin suitable for higher bandwidth needs compared to the 800MHz variant. Consider the 1.35V low-power specification for energy-efficient designs while maintaining backward compatibility with 1.5V systems if necessary. Verify that the 96-ball FBGA package fits the available board space.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the EM6HE16EWAKG series of DDR3L SDRAMs from Etron Technology. The series offers various speed grades, including the 800MHz and 933MHz options. The 'WAK' suffix specifies the 7.5 x 13.5 x 1.2mm FBGA package, while 'I' indicates industrial temperature grading. This family is designed for general-purpose high-speed memory applications compliant with JEDEC standards.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

The EM6HE16EWAKG-12IH serves as a lower-speed alternative within the same package and electrical family, operating at 800MHz. Ensure pinout compatibility and verify that the reduced clock frequency meets system timing requirements if substituting.

Memory IC FAQ

What is the difference between the EM6HE16EWAKG-10IH and -12IH variants?

The primary difference is the clock frequency and data rate. The -10IH operates at 933MHz (1866Mbps/pin), while the -12IH operates at 800MHz (1600Mbps/pin). Both share the same package and electrical characteristics.

Does this component support 1.5V operation?

Yes, the device is backward compatible to VDD & VDDQ = +1.5V ±0.075V, although it is primarily designed for 1.35V operation.
