Product details
Overview
W631GG8NB09I from Winbond Electronics is a 1 Gb (128 MB) DDR3 SDRAM organized as 16M × 8 banks × 8 bits, operating at DDR3-2133 speed (1066 MHz clock, 14-14-14 CL-tRCD-tRP), with industrial temperature range (−40°C to +95°C), VDD/VDDQ = 1.5 V ± 0.075 V, and SSTL_15 interface - deployed in embedded computing, network edge routers, and industrial HMIs requiring high-bandwidth, low-latency memory buffering.
For engineers reviewing the W631GG8NB09I datasheet, W631GG8NB09I pinout, W631GG8NB09I application, or W631GG8NB09I equivalent, this page delivers verified timing parameters, ball configuration, ODT and ZQ calibration behavior, DLL alignment characteristics, and industrial-grade thermal validation - all confirmed against Winbond's official A01 revision datasheet dated Jan. 07, 2021.
Technical Context
This DDR3 SDRAM implements an 8-bit prefetch architecture with eight internal banks for concurrent access, supporting programmable CAS Latency (CL = 5–14) and CAS Write Latency (CWL = 5–10). Its differential CK/CK# inputs synchronize all commands on rising edges, while bi-directional DQS/DQS# strobes align read data edge-wise and write data center-wise relative to clock.
The device integrates asynchronous RESET#, on-die termination (ODT) with static and dynamic modes (Rtt_Nom, Rtt_WR), ZQ calibration using external 240 Ω resistor, and Multi-Purpose Register (MPR) support for system-level timing calibration via write leveling - enabling robust signal integrity in high-speed PCB layouts with tight trace length matching.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 1 Gb (128 MB), organized as 16M words × 8 banks × 8 bits - supports 128 MB of byte-addressable storage per chip. |
| Data Rate | DDR3-2133 (2133 MT/s), fCKMAX = 1066 MHz - enables 17.06 GB/s peak bandwidth across 64-bit bus. |
| CAS Latency | Configurable CL = 5 to 14 (supports 14-14-14 at DDR3-2133) - determines minimum tAA delay (13.09 ns min) and impacts read latency (RL = AL + CL). |
| Supply Voltage | VDD/VDDQ = 1.5 V ± 0.075 V - requires tightly regulated 1.5 V rail with <±5% tolerance for stable operation. |
| Operating Temp | −40°C ≤ TCASE ≤ +95°C - qualified for industrial environments without derating or reduced AC specs. |
| Interface Standard | SSTL_15 - mandates 1.5 V reference voltage and controlled-impedance routing (typically 40–60 Ω) for command/address and data lines. |
| Package | VFBGA-78 (8 mm × 10.5 mm, 1.0 mm height, RoHS-compliant, lead-free) - requires 0.5 mm pitch BGA layout and reflow profile compatible with JEDEC J-STD-020. |
Pinout & Package
VFBGA-78 package with 8×10.5 mm² footprint, 1.0 mm thickness, and window-type construction. Ball pitch is 0.8 mm; balls are arranged in 9 rows (A–J) × 9 columns (1–9), with corner balls A1 and J9 omitted (78 total active balls).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1–A9 (excl. A1) | Address/Command Inputs (A0–A15, BA0–BA2, CKE, CS#, RAS#, CAS#, WE#) | Single-ended SSTL_15 signals; require matched trace lengths and point-to-point topology to controller. |
| B1–B9, C1–C9 | Data I/O (DQ0–DQ7), Data Mask (DM0–DM7), Differential Strobes (DQS0–DQS7, DQS#0–DQS#7) | DQ/DM use SSTL_15; DQS/DQS# are differential pairs - each pair must be length-matched within ±5 mil and routed over solid reference plane. |
| D1–D9, E1–E9 | Power (VDD, VDDQ), Ground (VSS, VSSQ), ODT Control (ODT) | VDD/VDDQ pins require local 100 nF + 10 µF decoupling; ODT pin selects termination resistance during reads/writes per MR1 settings. |
| F1–F9, G1–G9 | Clock (CK, CK#), Reset (RESET#), ZQ Calibration (ZQ) | CK/CK# differential pair must be routed with 100 Ω ±10% impedance and <5 ps skew; ZQ connects to 240 Ω ±1% resistor to ground for driver/ODT calibration. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Programmable CWL | CAS Write Latency configurable per frequency (CWL = 5–10), enabling precise write timing alignment independent of CL - critical for burst write reliability at DDR3-2133. |
| ZQ Calibration | On-chip calibration of output drivers and ODT using external 240 Ω resistor - maintains consistent 34/40/60/120 Ω termination impedances across voltage/temperature drift. |
| Dynamic ODT (Rtt_WR) | Termination enabled only during write operations via MR2 bit A2, reducing stub reflections and improving write eye margin without affecting read signal integrity. |
| Write Leveling Support | Hardware-assisted timing calibration mode (entered via MRS) that adjusts DQS launch delay relative to CK to compensate for board skew - required for reliable DDR3-2133 write setup/hold. |
| Multi-Purpose Register (MPR) | Predefined 128-bit pattern (0x00000000… or 0xFFFFFFFF…) readable via standard READ command - used for system-level DQ/DQS timing margin verification and training. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar DDR3 SDRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IS43TR16128B-2BLI | 16-bit x 64M organization (128 MB), same DDR3-2133 speed grade, but 96-ball FBGA (vs. 78-ball); supports CL=11 only at 1066 MHz. | Requires wider data bus (x16 vs. x8), limiting compatibility with x8-only controllers; higher pin count increases PCB layer count. | Select when x16 interface and larger single-chip density are needed; verify controller supports x16 mode and 96-ball layout constraints. |
| MT41K128M8RH-125:E | Micron part with identical 128 MB x8 density and DDR3L-1866 (933 MHz) speed; operates at 1.35 V only - not 1.5 V compatible. | Lower voltage reduces power but mandates separate 1.35 V rail; lacks industrial −40°C to +95°C rating (only commercial 0°C to +95°C). | Choose for power-sensitive battery-backed systems where 1.35 V supply exists; avoid in industrial thermal environments requiring full −40°C startup. |
Compared with IS43TR16128B-2BLI and MT41K128M8RH-125:E, the W631GG8NB09I provides native x8 interface in compact 78-ball VFBGA, full 1.5 V compatibility, and guaranteed industrial temperature operation - making it optimal for space-constrained, thermally demanding embedded designs without voltage rail redesign.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by W631GG8NB09I?
W631GG8NB09I supports a maximum clock frequency of 1066 MHz, enabling DDR3-2133 data rates (2133 MT/s). This is validated under industrial temperature conditions (−40°C to +95°C) with CL = 14, tRCD = 14, and tRP = 14 timing parameters. The device achieves this performance using SSTL_15 signaling and differential CK/CK# inputs synchronized to controller clocks.
Does W631GG8NB09I support write leveling, and how is it implemented?
Yes, W631GG8NB09I supports hardware-assisted write leveling per JEDEC DDR3 specification. It is entered via Mode Register Set (MRS) command with MR0 A12 = 1, enabling DQS phase adjustment relative to CK. The W631GG8NB09I uses its internal DLL to dynamically shift DQS launch timing during calibration, allowing system-level compensation for board-level flight time mismatches between CK and DQS signals.
What termination resistances are supported by W631GG8NB09I's on-die termination (ODT)?
W631GG8NB09I supports four static ODT values (Rtt_Nom): 120 Ω, 60 Ω, 40 Ω, and 34 Ω, selected via MR1 bits A9–A7. It also supports dynamic ODT (Rtt_WR) with 120 Ω or 60 Ω during writes, configured via MR2 bit A2. All values are calibrated using the external 240 Ω ZQ resistor and remain stable across voltage and temperature variations.
Can W631GG8NB09I operate at 1.35 V instead of 1.5 V?
No, W631GG8NB09I is specified exclusively for 1.5 V ± 0.075 V operation (VDD and VDDQ). It is not DDR3L-compatible and does not guarantee functionality or timing compliance at 1.35 V. Using 1.35 V may result in failed initialization, timing violations, or intermittent data corruption. For DDR3L applications, consider Winbond's W631GG8NB-125 series or alternate vendors' DDR3L-1600 parts.
What is the purpose of the Multi-Purpose Register (MPR) in W631GG8NB09I?
The MPR in W631GG8NB09I stores a fixed 128-bit pattern (all 0s or all 1s) readable via standard READ commands. It is used for system-level timing margin testing - by comparing received MPR data against expected values, designers verify DQ/DQS timing alignment, signal integrity, and eye opening at DDR3-2133 speeds without requiring external pattern generators.
