Product details
Overview
UPD48288236AF1-E50-DW1-A from NEC Electronics (now Renesas) is a 8,388,608-word × 36-bit synchronous double-data-rate Low Latency DRAM with HSTL I/O, 144-pin TAPE FBGA (18.5 × 11 mm), and 288M-bit density. It operates at 300 MHz (3.3 ns cycle time), supports burst lengths of 2/4/8, and delivers high-bandwidth memory for real-time video buffering and packet processing in telecom infrastructure.
For engineers reviewing the UPD48288236AF1-E50-DW1-A datasheet, UPD48288236AF1-E50-DW1-A pinout, UPD48288236AF1-E50-DW1-A application, or UPD48288236AF1-E50-DW1-A equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed x36 common-I/O architecture, and precise AC/DC specifications per Rev.3.00 datasheet R10DS0097EJ0300.
Technical Context
This device implements a non-multiplexed address interface with 19 address inputs (A0–A18), three bank address lines (BA0–BA2), and dual differential input data clocks (DK0/DK0# and DK1/DK1#) aligned to separate 18-bit DQ groups. Its PLL-based timing generator synchronizes all operations to CK/CK#, enabling deterministic read/write latency under burst access patterns.
The architecture integrates eight independent banks, auto-refresh support (64K cycles / 32 ms total), programmable output impedance (25–60 Ω via ZQ), and JTAG boundary-scan compliance (IEEE 1149.1). Data validity is signaled by QVLD edge-aligned to QK0/QK0# and QK1/QK1#, with DQ0–DQ35 organized as two 18-bit sub-buses each referenced to dedicated DK/QK pairs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Density | 288M bit (8M words × 36 bits × 8 banks) |
| Operating frequency | 300 MHz - enables 600 MT/s data rate with DDR architecture |
| Cycle time | 3.3 ns @ tRC = 20 ns - defines minimum row-to-row activation interval |
| I/O standard | HSTL Class I - ensures signal integrity at high-speed with controlled-impedance outputs |
| Supply voltages | VEXT = 2.5 V ± 0.13 V, VDD = 1.8 V ± 0.1 V, VDDQ = 1.5 V or 1.8 V ± 0.1 V - decoupled power domains reduce noise coupling |
| Burst length | Programmable 2/4/8 - matches varying data payload sizes without command overhead |
| Refresh rate | 64K cycles / 32 ms total - meets JEDEC requirements for thermal stability |
Pinout & Package
Package: 144-pin TAPE FBGA, 18.5 mm × 11 mm, lead-free compliant. Pinout corresponds to Common I/O x36 configuration per datasheet Page 5.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CK, CK# | Differential system clock inputs | Latch all address/control on rising edge of CK; define timing reference for all synchronous operations |
| DK0/DK0#, DK1/DK1# | Differential input data clocks | DK0 references DQ0–DQ17; DK1 references DQ18–DQ35 - enables independent timing control per 18-bit lane |
| QK0/QK0#, QK1/QK1# | Differential output data clocks | QK0 aligned with DQ0–DQ17; QK1 aligned with DQ18–DQ35 - provides source-synchronous timing for receiver capture |
| DQ0–DQ35 | 36-bit bidirectional data bus | Common I/O structure - same pins used for read and write; supports burst transfers without direction control |
| CS#, WE#, REF#, DM | Command and mask control inputs | CS# enables command decoding; WE# selects WRITE; REF# triggers refresh; DM masks write data on both DK edges |
| A0–A18, BA0–BA2 | Row/column and bank address inputs | Non-multiplexed addressing - eliminates address setup/hold timing constraints of multiplexed DRAMs |
| VREF, ZQ, VTT | Reference, impedance tuning, termination supplies | VREF sets HSTL input threshold; ZQ calibrates DQ output impedance (25–60 Ω); VTT supplies on-die termination voltage |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| SRAM-type interface | Non-multiplexed address and command bus - eliminates complex address sequencing required in standard SDRAM |
| Double-data-rate architecture | Transfers data on both CK edges - doubles effective bandwidth without increasing clock frequency |
| User-programmable output impedance | 25 Ω to 60 Ω via ZQ resistor - enables dynamic matching to PCB trace impedance across process/voltage/temperature |
| Differential input/output clocks | CK/CK#, DKx/DKx#, QKx/QKx# - suppresses common-mode noise and improves jitter tolerance |
| Data valid signaling | QVLD output edge-aligned to QKx - removes uncertainty in data capture window for high-speed receivers |
Applications
| Video Frame Buffering | Network Packet Processing |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Storing uncompressed HD video frames (1920×1080×24bpp) in real-time encoder/decoder pipelines. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-bandwidth, low-latency frame buffer with burst-length flexibility to match variable GOP structures.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-latency DRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IS42S32800F-6BLI | 32M×32 SDR SDRAM, 166 MHz, 3.3 V core, no differential clocks or QVLD | Lacks source-synchronous timing; higher latency due to multiplexed addressing and command pipeline | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs bandwidth/latency requirements and system clocking is single-ended |
| MT47H64M4BP-3:G | 64M×4 DDR2 SDRAM, 400 MHz, 1.8 V, 84-ball FBGA, no ZQ calibration | Higher density but narrower bus; no programmable impedance or dedicated QVLD signal | Choose for legacy DDR2-compatible designs where board layout rework for x36 interface is prohibitive |
Compared with IS42S32800F-6BLI and MT47H64M4BP-3:G, UPD48288236AF1-E50-DW1-A delivers superior timing determinism via differential DK/QK clocks and QVLD, plus finer impedance control through ZQ - making it uniquely suited for real-time signal capture where jitter-induced data errors must be eliminated.

FAQ
What is the exact organization and density of UPD48288236AF1-E50-DW1-A?
UPD48288236AF1-E50-DW1-A is organized as 8,388,608 words × 36 bits across eight internal banks, delivering a total density of 288 megabits. This configuration is explicitly defined in the datasheet's Ordering Information table and Pin Arrangement section for the x36 Common I/O variant. The part uses non-multiplexed addressing with A0–A18 and BA0–BA2, and supports burst lengths of 2, 4, or 8.
Does UPD48288236AF1-E50-DW1-A support differential input data clocks?
Yes, UPD48288236AF1-E50-DW1-A supports two pairs of differential input data clocks: DK0/DK0# for DQ0–DQ17 and DK1/DK1# for DQ18–DQ35. This is confirmed in the Pin Description (Page 6), Pin Arrangement (Page 5), and AC Characteristics tables of the R10DS0097EJ0300 datasheet. Each DK pair is independently timed to its respective 18-bit DQ group to maintain signal integrity at 300 MHz DDR operation.
What are the valid supply voltage ranges for VDDQ on UPD48288236AF1-E50-DW1-A?
UPD48288236AF1-E50-DW1-A supports VDDQ at either 1.5 V ± 0.1 V or 1.8 V ± 0.1 V, as specified in the Recommended DC Operating Conditions table (Page 10) and Ordering Information (Page 2). The selection determines compatible I/O standards and affects output drive strength. VDDQ must not exceed VDD, and VREF is derived as 0.49–0.51 × VDDQ per datasheet Section 1.
How does the ZQ pin function on UPD48288236AF1-E50-DW1-A?
The ZQ pin on UPD48288236AF1-E50-DW1-A enables user-programmable output impedance calibration between 25 Ω and 60 Ω. As described on Page 7, connecting ZQ to VSS selects minimum impedance mode, while connecting to VDDQ selects maximum. The actual value is set to 0.2 × RQ, where RQ is an external resistor from ZQ to VSS. Mode Register Bit A8 controls activation of this feature.
Is UPD48288236AF1-E50-DW1-A compatible with JTAG boundary-scan testing?
Yes, UPD48288236AF1-E50-DW1-A includes full IEEE 1149.1 JTAG boundary-scan support using TMS, TDI, TCK, and TDO pins (Pages 3–7). The JTAG interface allows for interconnect testing and in-system programming verification. Pins are functional only when JTAG is enabled; otherwise, TMS/TDI may be left unconnected and TCK must be tied to VSS per datasheet guidance.
