GS8342T36BGD-400I

Memory IC Overview

The GS8342T36BGD-400I is a synchronous static random access memory (SRAM) device manufactured by GSI Technology. It features a total storage capacity of 36 Mbit, organized as 1M x 36 bits. The component supports a maximum clock frequency of 400 MHz and utilizes a parallel interface. Operating voltage ranges from 1.7 V to 1.9 V, with a maximum power supply current of 780 mA. It is housed in a BGA-165 package suitable for surface mount technology and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Supports high-speed data transfer at frequencies up to 400 MHz
• Provides wide 36-bit data bus width for efficient system integration
• Operates on low voltage supplies between 1.7 V and 1.9 V

Memory IC Applications

• High-performance networking equipment
• Telecommunications infrastructure systems
• Industrial control applications requiring fast memory access

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I' indicates industrial temperature rating compliance before ordering. Confirm that the BGA-165 package dimensions match your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure your design supports the required 1.7 V to 1.9 V power rail stability. Check for moisture sensitivity level handling procedures during assembly. Validate that the 400 MHz timing parameters align with your system clock constraints.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this part when a 36-bit wide data path is necessary for system architecture. Choose this model over narrower variants if bandwidth efficiency is critical. Consider the industrial temperature range if the deployment environment exceeds commercial limits. Verify that the BGA-165 form factor fits within the available board space constraints.

Memory IC Part Context

This component belongs to the SigmaDDR-II family of synchronous SRAMs from GSI Technology. It shares the same physical package and core architecture as other members of the GS8342 series but differs in organization and speed grade. The 36-bit configuration distinguishes it from standard 8-bit or 18-bit variants in the lineup.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other GS8342R36BGD-400I units from GSI Technology. Cross-referencing with equivalent 36-bit, 400 MHz SRAMs requires verifying pin compatibility and timing specifications.
