Product details
Overview
M3016316035NX0PBCR from Renesas Electronics is a 16Mbit parallel asynchronous magneto-resistive RAM (MRAM) with x16 data bus, 35ns read/write cycle time, 2.7–3.6V supply, and industrial-plus temperature range (−40°C to +105°C). It delivers persistent SRAM-like performance with non-volatile data retention, enabling fast, reliable storage in real-time control systems.
For engineers reviewing the M3016316035NX0PBCR datasheet, M3016316035NX0PBCR pinout, M3016316035NX0PBCR application, or M3016316035NX0PBCR equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, package mapping, timing behavior, byte-select operation, and validated alternatives for industrial memory replacement scenarios.
Technical Context
The M3016316035NX0PBCR implements STT-MRAM technology using a 40nm pMTJ cell array, supporting true random-access reads and writes without erase cycles. Its parallel asynchronous interface uses active-low E#, G#, W#, UB#, and LB# controls to manage chip enable, output enable, write enable, and upper/lower byte selection independently.
It operates in two primary modes: E#-controlled and W#-controlled write operations, both requiring strict address setup and data hold timing per JEDEC-compliant AC specifications. Power-up initialization mandates synchronized assertion of E#, W#, and G# after VCC reaches ≥2.7V, with tPU ≥1ms before first instruction.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Density | 16Mbit (1,048,576 × 16 organization) |
| Access Time | 35ns read/write cycle - enables SRAM-compatible timing in legacy parallel memory interfaces |
| Supply Voltage | 2.7V–3.6V - compatible with standard 3.3V logic rails and tolerant of brownout conditions down to 2.1V (Vwi) |
| Operating Temp | −40°C to +105°C - qualified for extended industrial environments including motor drives and power converters |

Pinout & Package
Package: 48-ball FBGA (10mm × 10mm, balls-down), RoHS/REACH compliant, thermal resistance θJA = 42.67°C/W (4–16Mb variant).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| E# | Chip Enable | Active-low global enable; places device in standby (ISB ≤1.7mA) when high |
| G# | Output Enable | Active-low control for DQ[15:0] drivers; required low during read, don't-care during write |
| W# | Write Enable | Active-low write strobe; determines direction of DQ bus (write when low, read when high) |
| UB# / LB# | Byte Enables | Independent active-low controls for DQ[15:8] and DQ[7:0]; enable partial-word access without masking logic |
| ADDR[19:0] | Address Inputs | 20-bit address bus for 16Mbit addressing (1,048,576 locations); no address latching required |
| DQ[15:0] | Bidirectional Data | x16 data bus with Hi-Z on deselect; supports simultaneous upper/lower byte writes via UB#/LB# |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Non-volatile SRAM compatibility | 35ns read/write timing with no write latency penalty or erase overhead - replaces battery-backed SRAM without redesign |
| True random access | Unrestricted read/write to any address location - eliminates block-level constraints of Flash/NOR |
| Industrial-plus temperature support | Guaranteed operation from −40°C to +105°C - suitable for under-hood automotive ECUs and industrial PLCs |
| Byte-select capability | Independent UB# and LB# controls allow 8-bit writes without disturbing adjacent bytes - reduces bus traffic in firmware update routines |
| High magnetic immunity | Withstands up to 24,000 A/m fields during read/write - robust in motor-driven or transformer-coupled environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar non-volatile parallel memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY14B108L-BAI | 8Mbit density, 45ns access, 54-pin TSOP package, same 2.7–3.6V supply and −40°C to +85°C temp range | Limited to industrial (not industrial-plus) temperature; lacks 105°C qualification for high-ambient deployments | Select when 8Mbit capacity suffices and operating ambient stays ≤85°C; verify PCB footprint compatibility with 54-pin TSOP vs. 48-ball FBGA |
| AS16M016-35N | 16Mbit density, 35ns access, 48-ball FBGA package, but requires 1.8V core + 3.3V I/O dual supply | Requires level-shifting or dual-rail power design; incompatible with single 3.3V system architecture | Choose only if existing design already supports 1.8V/3.3V separation; otherwise, M3016316035NX0PBCR offers simpler single-supply integration |
Compared with CY14B108L-BAI and AS16M016-35N, the M3016316035NX0PBCR uniquely combines 16Mbit density, 35ns timing, industrial-plus temperature rating, and single 3.3V supply in a compact 48-ball FBGA - making it the only option qualified for high-reliability, high-temperature, space-constrained embedded systems requiring zero-refresh non-volatility.

FAQ
What is the memory organization of the M3016316035NX0PBCR?
The M3016316035NX0PBCR features a 16Mbit density organized as 1,048,576 words × 16 bits. This corresponds to a 20-bit address bus (ADDR[19:0]) and full x16 bidirectional data interface (DQ[15:0]). The device does not use page or sector addressing - all locations are accessible with uniform 35ns timing, consistent with its SRAM-compatible architecture.
Does the M3016316035NX0PBCR require external backup power or capacitors?
No, the M3016316035NX0PBCR does not require external backup power, supercapacitors, or batteries. Its STT-MRAM technology provides inherent non-volatility: data persists indefinitely after power removal. The device guarantees 10-year data retention at 105°C and withstands 10¹⁴ write cycles - eliminating all support circuitry needed for battery-backed SRAM or managed NAND.
Can the M3016316035NX0PBCR be used as a direct replacement for standard SRAM?
Yes, the M3016316035NX0PBCR is functionally and timing-compatible with 35ns parallel SRAMs, including identical pinout for E#, G#, W#, UB#, LB#, ADDR, and DQ signals. It accepts the same control sequences and requires no firmware changes. However, unlike SRAM, it retains data without power - making it a persistent SRAM (P-SRAM) drop-in upgrade where non-volatility is required.
What is the significance of the '0P' suffix in M3016316035NX0PBCR?
The '0P' in M3016316035NX0PBCR denotes the industrial-plus temperature grade (−40°C to +105°C), as defined in Renesas' ordering system. This distinguishes it from the '0I' variant (−40°C to +85°C). The 'P' grade undergoes extended burn-in and characterization to ensure reliability at elevated junction temperatures, critical for enclosed industrial enclosures or automotive under-hood applications.
How does the M3016316035NX0PBCR handle power-up sequencing?
The M3016316035NX0PBCR requires E#, W#, and G# to follow VCC during power-up - all must remain high until VCC stabilizes above 2.7V. A minimum tPU of 1ms is required between VCC reaching specification and issuing the first command. Failure to meet this causes undefined behavior; no internal power-on reset circuitry compensates for improper sequencing.
