Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'W' indicates the wide voltage range (1.65V-3.6V) compared to standard variants. Confirm the package dimensions match the 8-WSON (6x8mm) specification. Ensure the operating temperature grade meets the -40°C to +85°C requirement for your design environment. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with official datasheets to confirm pinout compatibility.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a wide supply voltage range starting from 1.65 V is required, distinguishing it from standard 2.7 V parts. The 104 MHz Quad I/O speed offers a balance between performance and power efficiency. Consider the 8-WSON footprint for compact board designs. Verify that the application does not require higher clock speeds available in other series members.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the GD25 SPI NOR Flash family, which provides high-performance and security features for various design requirements. GigaDevice utilizes this portfolio for mobile solutions, including smartphones and IoT devices. The GD25WR256EYIGY specifically addresses needs for flexible product options that optimize power consumption and extend battery life in portable electronics.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations
