GS8256436GB-250I

Memory IC Overview

The GS8256436GB-250I is a synchronous static random-access memory (SRAM) device manufactured by GSI Technology. It provides a total storage capacity of 288 Mbit, organized as 8M words by 36 bits. The component supports dual voltage operation at 2.5V and 3.3V, with an absolute maximum rating of 3.6V and a minimum of 2.3V. It features a parallel interface capable of operating at a maximum clock frequency of 250 MHz. The device utilizes a BGA-119 package for surface mount installation.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Supports high-speed synchronous burst data transfer via a parallel interface
• Operates within a wide supply voltage range of 2.3V to 3.6V
• Provides pipeline/flow-through access modes for efficient data handling

Memory IC Applications

• High-performance networking equipment requiring large buffer memories
• Telecommunications systems utilizing wide data buses
• Industrial control systems demanding fast random access

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I' indicates industrial temperature range compliance before ordering. Confirm that the BGA-119 footprint matches the target PCB design. Ensure power supply decoupling meets the manufacturer's recommendations for the 250 MHz operation. Check for moisture sensitivity level requirements during storage and reflow soldering processes.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this part when an 8M x 36 bit organization is required for wide data path applications. The 250 MHz speed grade offers higher throughput than lower-frequency variants in the same series. Consider the BGA-119 package constraints regarding board space and thermal dissipation capabilities compared to other pin counts.

Memory IC Part Context

This component belongs to the SyncBurst family of synchronous SRAMs from GSI Technology. It shares architectural similarities with other devices in the GS8256436GB series but differs in speed grade and temperature rating. The 'I' suffix typically denotes an extended industrial temperature range suitable for harsher operating environments.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the GS8256436GB-200 for lower speed requirements or the GS8256436GB-250 if commercial temperature range is acceptable. Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications before swapping.
