S26KS256SDGBHN030

Memory IC Overview

The S26KS256SDGBHN030 is a non-volatile HyperFlash memory IC manufactured by Infineon Technologies, part of the HYPERFLASH KS series. It provides a storage capacity of 256 Mbit organized as 32M x 8 bits. The device utilizes a HyperBus interface with a clock frequency of 133 MHz and an access time of 96 ns. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.7V to 1.95V and is housed in a 24-FBGA (6x8) package. The component supports surface mount mounting and functions across an operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Supports high-speed synchronous parallel data transfer via the HyperBus interface for efficient code execution.
• Features low-power consumption characteristics suitable for battery-operated and portable electronic devices.
• Includes robust security mechanisms such as hardware write protection and user-defined security registers.

Memory IC Applications

• Boot code storage for embedded processors requiring fast random read access.
• Application code execution in automotive infotainment systems.
• Data logging and configuration storage in industrial control units.

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation on official datasheets, as Infineon acquired Cypress, which originally produced this family. Confirm that the specific suffix matches the required thermal grade and package variant. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for the 24-FBGA form factor before procurement.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a balance between high-speed random read performance and moderate density is required. It is appropriate for designs needing direct code execution from flash without external cache overhead. Consider the 1.8V I/O standard for integration with modern microcontrollers.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the S26KS256 family of HyperFlash memories designed for applications demanding faster boot times and improved system responsiveness compared to traditional NOR flash. It serves as a drop-in replacement for certain legacy parallel NOR devices while offering enhanced throughput capabilities through its specialized interface protocol.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Check for pin-compatible alternatives within the same S26KS family, such as different density variants or packages, if supply constraints exist. Verify electrical parameter alignment for any cross-referenced parts.
