Product details
Overview
W631GG8KB-11 from Winbond Electronics is a 1 Gb (128 MB) DDR3 SDRAM organized as 16M × 8 banks × 8 bits, supporting DDR3-1866 speed grade (13-13-13 timing), 1.5 V core/interface supply, and industrial-grade temperature operation (0°C to 95°C). It delivers 1866 Mb/sec/pin data rates with programmable CAS Latency (CL = 6, 8, 10, 13), on-die termination (ODT), and ZQ calibration for high-speed memory subsystems in networking and embedded computing.
For engineers reviewing the W631GG8KB-11 datasheet, W631GG8KB-11 pinout, W631GG8KB-11 application, or W631GG8KB-11 equivalent, key selection criteria include its DDR3-1866 timing compliance, 78-ball WBGA package, SSTL_15 interface compatibility, asynchronous RESET# support, and dynamic ODT configuration for signal integrity optimization in multi-rank DIMM designs.
Technical Context
This DDR3 SDRAM implements an 8-bit prefetch architecture with eight internal banks enabling concurrent access, DLL-aligned DQ/DQS timing relative to CK/CK#, and source-synchronous differential strobe (DQS/DQS#) I/O. Its command interface uses positive-edge sampling of CK with cross-point latching of address/control signals.
The device supports full JEDEC DDR3 features including posted CAS with additive latency (AL = 0, CL−1, CL−2), programmable CWL (5–9), write leveling, Multi-Purpose Register (MPR)-based calibration, and dual-mode ODT (synchronous/dynamic) with RTT_NOM/RTT_WR settings controlled via MR1/MR2.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 1 Gb (128 MB), organized as 16M words × 8 banks × 8 bits - defines usable capacity per chip in rank-level memory expansion. |
| Data Rate | DDR3-1866 (933 MHz clock, 1866 MT/s) - enables high-bandwidth interfaces in routers, baseband units, and SoC memory controllers. |
| CAS Latency | CL = 6, 8, 10, 13 - determines minimum read access latency; CL=13 required for full DDR3-1866 timing compliance (tAA = 13.91 ns). |
| Supply Voltage | VDD/VDDQ = 1.5 V ± 0.075 V - mandates compatible 1.5 V power delivery and level-shifting for host controller interfacing. |
| Operating Temp | 0°C ≤ TCASE ≤ 95°C - supports extended-temperature applications without derating when using ASR or manual self-refresh. |
| Package | 78-ball WBGA (8 mm × 10.5 mm, 0.8 mm pitch) - surface-mount footprint requiring controlled-impedance PCB layout for DQ/DQS routing. |
| Interface Standard | SSTL_15 - defines voltage thresholds and termination requirements for reliable signal integrity at 1.5 V signaling. |
Pinout & Package
W631GG8KB-11 is packaged in a 78-ball Wafer-Level Ball Grid Array (WBGA), 8 mm × 10.5 mm body size, RoHS-compliant and lead-free. Ball pitch is 0.8 mm; mounting requires reflow profile compliant with JEDEC J-STD-020.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CK / CK# | Differential clock input | Latches all address/control inputs at crossing point; defines system timing reference for all DDR3 operations. |
| DQS / DQS# | Differential data strobe | Source-synchronous strobe aligned to center of write data and edge-aligned to read data; critical for timing closure. |
| RESET# | Asynchronous reset input | Initiates power-up initialization sequence and resets internal state; must be held low ≥ 200 µs after stable VDD/VDDQ. |
| ODT | On-die termination control | Enables/disables internal termination resistors on DQ/DQS/DM lines; configured via MR1 for impedance matching. |
| ZQ | ZQ calibration reference | Connects to external 240 Ω ±1% resistor to ground; calibrates output driver strength and ODT values during ZQCL command. |
| CS# | Chip select | Active-low enable for command decoding; used for rank selection in multi-chip modules or DIMMs. |
| CKE | Clock enable | Controls entry/exit from power-down and self-refresh modes; must remain HIGH during active read/write bursts. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dynamic ODT (Rtt_WR) | Enables on-the-fly ODT activation during WRITE commands only, reducing stub reflections and improving write eye margin without affecting read paths. |
| Write Leveling | Calibrates DQS-to-CK skew per byte lane using MPR read pattern, enabling precise timing alignment for multi-DIMM systems with trace length mismatch. |
| Programmable CWL | Supports CWL = 5–9, allowing optimal write latency (WL = AL + CWL) tuning across DDR3-1333 to DDR3-1866 frequencies. |
| Partial Array Self Refresh (PASR) | Reduces self-refresh current up to 50% by refreshing only active banks, extending battery life in portable embedded systems with intermittent memory access. |
| Multi-Purpose Register (MPR) | Provides predefined calibration bit pattern (0x00000000) for system-level timing validation without disturbing normal memory contents. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar DDR3 SDRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MT41K128M8RH-125:E (Micron) | Same density (1 Gb), 78-ball FBGA, DDR3L-1600 (1.35 V), CL=11 @ 800 MHz; lacks PASR and TDQS support. | Lower voltage operation reduces power but requires separate 1.35 V rail; not suitable for legacy 1.5 V-only systems. | Select when system power budget is constrained and controller supports DDR3L; verify RESET# timing compatibility. |
| IS43TR16128B-125KBL (ISSI) | 1 Gb, 96-ball BGA, DDR3-1600, CL=11, supports ZQ and ODT; different ballout prevents direct PCB replacement. | Requires board redesign due to 96-ball layout and larger 11 mm × 13 mm footprint; higher pin count enables x16 data width variants. | Choose for new designs needing x16 interface flexibility or longer product lifecycle; not drop-in for W631GG8KB-11's 78-ball layout. |
Compared with MT41K128M8RH-125:E and IS43TR16128B-125KBL, W631GG8KB-11 offers native DDR3-1866 performance at 1.5 V with PASR and TDQS capability-critical for thermally constrained, high-bandwidth embedded systems where voltage rails and board space are fixed.

FAQ
What is the maximum data rate supported by the W631GG8KB-11?
The W631GG8KB-11 supports DDR3-1866 operation, delivering 1866 megatransfers per second (MT/s) with a 933 MHz differential clock frequency. This is validated under JEDEC-compliant conditions with tCK = 1.07 ns (CL=13, CWL=9), and requires strict adherence to AC timing parameters including tAA, tRCD, and tRP minima of 13.91 ns each.
Does the W631GG8KB-11 support industrial temperature range?
Yes, the W631GG8KB-11 is rated for 0°C ≤ TCASE ≤ 95°C operation. At temperatures above 85°C, it requires either Auto Self-Refresh (ASR) enabled via MR2 or manual self-refresh mode to maintain refresh integrity at doubled frequency (tREFI = 3.9 µS), ensuring data retention without external intervention.
How is on-die termination configured on the W631GG8KB-11?
On-die termination (ODT) on the W631GG8KB-11 is controlled via the ODT pin and programmed through Mode Register MR1 (bits A2–A0) and MR2 (bit A9). It supports RTT_NOM values of 75 Ω, 150 Ω, or 50 Ω, and dynamic Rtt_WR values of 75 Ω or 150 Ω during writes, calibrated using the external ZQ resistor.
What package type does the W631GG8KB-11 use?
The W631GG8KB-11 uses a 78-ball Wafer-Level Ball Grid Array (WBGA) package measuring 8 mm × 10.5 mm with 0.8 mm ball pitch. It is RoHS-compliant and lead-free, designed for automated SMT assembly and optimized for high-density DDR3 memory module layouts.
Can the W631GG8KB-11 operate at lower CAS latencies than CL=13?
Yes, the W631GG8KB-11 supports CL=6, 8, 10, and 13. However, CL=13 is mandatory for full DDR3-1866 compliance (13-13-13 timing). Lower CL settings (e.g., CL=10) are permitted only at reduced frequencies (e.g., DDR3-1600) and require corresponding tAA/tRCD/tRP adjustments per JEDEC specification and SPD programming.
