GS8321Z36AGD-250IV

Memory IC Overview

The GS8321Z36AGD-250IV is a 36 Mbit Synchronous Burst Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) manufactured by GSI Technology. It features a memory organization of 1M x 36 bits and supports parallel interface communication. The device operates with a maximum clock frequency of 250 MHz and has an access time of 6.5 ns. It functions within a supply voltage range of 1.8 V to 3.6 V, with specific configurations supporting 1.8V or 2.5V operation. The component is housed in a 165-pin FBGA package measuring 15x13 mm, designed for surface mount technology applications.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Supports pipelined and flow-through operational modes for high-speed data processing
• Utilizes Zero Bus Turnaround (ZBT) technology to minimize bus turnaround latency
• Integrated on-chip voltage regulators ensure stable performance across varying supply conditions

Memory IC Applications

• High-performance networking equipment requiring low-latency buffering
• Telecommunications infrastructure systems
• Industrial automation control units

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific voltage configuration required for your design, as the suffix indicates support for 1.8V or 2.5V operations. Confirm that the 165-pin FBGA footprint matches your PCB layout constraints. Ensure compliance with humidity sensitivity levels during storage and handling procedures to maintain component integrity before assembly.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when system requirements demand synchronous burst SRAM with ZBT capabilities at 250 MHz speeds. It is suitable for designs needing a 1M x 36 bit organization in a compact BGA form factor. Consider the operating temperature range and power consumption profiles relative to other members of the GS8321 family if alternative timing speeds are needed.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the GS8321 series of NBT SRAMs from GSI Technology. These devices are engineered for high-density, high-speed memory applications. The series typically includes variants with different access times and voltage options, all sharing common architectural features like pipelined architecture and integrated regulators for robust system integration.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes within the same family include the GS8321Z36AGD-200, which offers a lower 200 MHz clock speed but maintains the same pinout and functionality. Other variants such as the GS8321E36AGD-250 may offer different internal architectures like DCD Pipeline/Flow Through, requiring careful verification of electrical compatibility.
