Product details
Overview
W631GU8MB-11 from Winbond is a 1G-bit DDR3L SDRAM organized as 16M × 8 banks × 8 bits, operating at 1.35 V nominal supply with DDR3L-1866 speed grade (13-13-13 CL-tRCD-tRP), supporting CAS Latency 5–11 and programmable CWL 5–9. It delivers 1866 MT/s data rates in systems requiring low-voltage memory for industrial computing, network edge devices, and embedded controllers.
For engineers reviewing the W631GU8MB-11 datasheet, W631GU8MB-11 pinout, W631GU8MB-11 application, or W631GU8MB-11 equivalent, this device offers verified DDR3L-1866 timing compliance, ZQ calibration support, dynamic on-die termination (Rtt_WR), write leveling, and MPR-based system-level timing calibration - all critical for high-reliability DDR3L interface design and signal integrity validation.
Technical Context
This DDR3L SDRAM implements an 8-bank architecture with 8-bit prefetch, DLL-aligned DQ/DQS timing, and differential CK/CK# clocking. It supports posted CAS with additive latency (AL = 0, CL−1, CL−2), auto-precharge, and burst lengths of 8 (BL8) or 4 (BC4) selectable on-the-fly.
It features asynchronous RESET# for power-up initialization, programmable mode registers (MR0–MR3) for CAS Latency, CWL, ODT settings, PASR, ASR, and dynamic ODT control. ZQ calibration uses an external 240 Ω ±1 % resistor to calibrate output drivers and ODT impedances across voltage and temperature.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar DDR3L memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MT41K128M8RH-125:E | 1 G-bit DDR3L, 125-ball FBGA, DDR3L-1600 (11-11-11), CL11 max, no TDQS support | Lower bandwidth; lacks TDQS and extended temperature variants beyond 85°C | Preferred where PCB layout prioritizes larger ball pitch (0.8 mm → 0.8 mm but 125-ball footprint differs) and cost sensitivity outweighs 1866 MT/s need |
| IS43TR16128B-125KBL | 2 G-bit DDR3L, 96-ball FBGA, DDR3L-1600, CL11 max, supports 105°C but no write leveling or MPR | Higher density but lower speed; missing key calibration features required for 1866 MT/s timing closure | Appropriate for space-constrained designs needing >1 G-bit capacity and extended temp, but not for high-speed interface validation |
Compared with MT41K128M8RH-125:E and IS43TR16128B-125KBL, the W631GU8MB-11 uniquely combines DDR3L-1866 speed, write leveling, MPR, and 95°C operation in a compact 78-ball VFBGA - making it the only option among the three validated for full JEDEC DDR3L-1866 timing compliance with system-level calibration support.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported CAS Latency for W631GU8MB-11 at DDR3L-1866 speed?
The W631GU8MB-11 supports CAS Latency settings of 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 at DDR3L-1866 speed. CL13 and CL14 are reserved for DDR3L-2133 operation only and are not valid for the -11 speed grade. This ensures optimal timing margin while maintaining 1866 MT/s throughput in industrial temperature ranges.
Does W631GU8MB-11 support both synchronous and dynamic ODT modes?
Yes, W631GU8MB-11 supports both synchronous ODT (via ODT pin and MR1) and dynamic ODT (Rtt_WR via MR2). Dynamic ODT activates termination only during write operations, improving signal integrity on bidirectional DQ buses without impacting read performance - a key feature confirmed in the device's MR2 functional description and AC timing tables.
Can W631GU8MB-11 operate at 1.5 V, and what are the implications?
Yes, W631GU8MB-11 is backward compatible with 1.5 V DDR3 operation per Section 11 of its datasheet. However, at 1.5 V, it operates only at DDR3L-1866 timing (13-13-13) and does not gain additional speed headroom; the primary benefit is legacy system compatibility, not performance uplift. Full DDR3L-1866 specification remains valid at 1.5 V.
What is the purpose of the TDQS/TDQS# pins on W631GU8MB-11?
The TDQS/TDQS# pins on W631GU8MB-11 provide terminated differential strobe outputs, activated when TDQS mode is enabled in MR3. They reduce stub reflections on DQS routing, especially in point-to-multipoint topologies, and are explicitly defined in the ball description table and functional description section for improved write timing margin at 1866 MT/s.
How does W631GU8MB-11 handle refresh at extended temperatures (95–105°C)?
At 95–105°C case temperature, W631GU8MB-11 requires tREFI = 3.9 µS (doubled refresh rate). This is achieved either by enabling Auto Self-Refresh (ASR) via MR2[7:6] = 10b or by using Manual Self-Refresh with extended temperature capability (MR2[7:6] = 11b), both documented in Section 8.3.3.3 and validated for the -11J variant.
