Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I' confirms the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +100°C) against official datasheets. Confirm the BGA-165 package dimensions and pinout match the design requirements. Ensure the 2.5V/3.3V dual-voltage capability aligns with the target system power rails. Check for moisture sensitivity levels and reflow soldering profiles suitable for the SMD/SMT mounting style.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a 288 Mbit capacity with 18-bit word width is required for synchronous burst operations. It is suitable for designs needing 250 MHz performance with low latency. Consider the BGA-165 footprint for space-constrained PCB layouts. Verify that the operating voltage range fits the available power supplies in the application environment.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the GS8256418GD series of SyncBurst SRAMs. It shares architectural similarities with other members like the GS8256418GD-200I but offers higher speed capabilities. The series is designed for applications requiring large block memory with fast access times in industrial and commercial environments.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations
