NDS36PT5-16ET

Memory IC Overview

The NDS36PT5-16ET is a 256Mbit SDRAM memory IC manufactured by Insignis Technology Corporation. It features an LVTTL interface and operates at a clock frequency of 166 MHz with a 5 ns access time. The device is internally organized as 4 banks of 4M words x 16 bits, totaling 256 Mbits. It supports a supply voltage range of 3V to 3.6V and functions within an operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C (TA). The component is housed in a 54-TSOP II package with a width of 0.400 inches (10.16mm) and utilizes surface mount technology for installation.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• High-speed synchronous DRAM architecture utilizing CMOS technology
• Internal organization into four independent memory banks
• LVTTL interface compatibility for standard logic integration

Memory IC Applications

• Embedded systems requiring volatile data storage
• Consumer electronics with limited power supply constraints
• Industrial control units operating within commercial temperature ranges

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'ET' against official datasheets to confirm the commercial temperature grade (0°C to 70°C), as other suffixes may indicate industrial ratings. Ensure the 54-TSOP II footprint matches the target PCB design. Confirm RoHS3 compliance status through current manufacturer documentation before finalizing procurement specifications.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a 256Mb capacity with LVTTL signaling is required for cost-sensitive applications. The 166 MHz speed and 5 ns access time suit moderate-performance embedded designs. Consider the 0°C to 70°C operating range; if wider thermal tolerance is needed, verify alternative suffixes or models from the same product family that support extended industrial temperatures.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the NDS36 series of synchronous DRAMs from Insignis Technology Corporation. The series offers various speed grades and packaging options. The NDS36PT5-16ET specifically targets applications needing reliable volatile memory with standard parallel interfaces. It shares internal architecture with other variants in the line, differing primarily in speed binning and environmental ratings.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

NDS36PT5-16IT TR is listed as a parameter equivalent with identical capacity and interface but higher speed and industrial temperature rating.
