Product details
Overview
W97AH2NBVA1E from Winbond Electronics is a 1Gb LPDDR2-S4B mobile SDRAM in 136-ball VFBGA (8mm × 12.5mm, 0.65mm pitch), operating at 1.2V core/VDDQ with 533MHz data rate (LPDDR2-1066), supporting 16-bit bus width and on-die termination for low-power mobile applications including smartphone application processors and tablet SoCs.
For engineers reviewing the W97AH2NBVA1E datasheet, W97AH2NBVA1E pinout, W97AH2NBVA1E application, or W97AH2NBVA1E equivalent, key selection criteria include LPDDR2-1066 timing compliance (tRCD = 3, tRP = 3, RL = 3/WL = 1), PASR bank/segment masking support, ZQ calibration capability, and deep power-down mode for battery-constrained designs.
Technical Context
This device implements the JEDEC JESD209-2A LPDDR2 standard with dual-channel 8-bit prefetch architecture, supporting both burst lengths of 4 and 8, and configurable read/write latencies (RL/WL) via mode registers. It integrates temperature-sensing circuitry and supports MR10-based DQ calibration for signal integrity optimization across voltage and temperature.
The memory supports full bank refresh, per-bank refresh, and partial array self-refresh (PASR) using MR16/MR17 to mask inactive banks or segments-enabling dynamic power reduction during asymmetric workload conditions in application processors without requiring external controller intervention.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LPDDR2 memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MT42L128M16CM-107 | 1Gb LPDDR2, 1066Mbps, 136-ball VFBGA, but uses different MR layout and lacks MR17 segment masking | Compatible in basic LPDDR2-1066 systems; not suitable where PASR segment-level control is required | Select when legacy controller firmware does not support MR17 or when ZQ calibration tolerance requirements are relaxed |
| K4P4G324EC-BCF7 | 1Gb LPDDR2, 1066Mbps, same 136-ball VFBGA, but requires external VREF and has fixed 150Ω ODT only | Requires board-level VREF generation and lacks programmable ODT; no deep power-down mode | Prefer for cost-sensitive designs where DPD and fine-grained ODT control are non-critical |
Compared with W97AH2NBVA1E, MT42L128M16CM-107 offers identical timing but reduced power management flexibility, while K4P4G324EC-BCF7 trades integrated features for lower BOM count-making W97AH2NBVA1E optimal for thermally constrained, feature-rich mobile SoC interfaces.

FAQ
What is the maximum data rate supported by W97AH2NBVA1E?
W97AH2NBVA1E supports a maximum data rate of 1066 Mbps (533MHz clock frequency) under LPDDR2-1066 specification with RL=3 and WL=1. This is confirmed in the AC timing table (Section 7.4.3.4) and electrical characteristics (Section 8.2.1), where tCK(min) = 1.875ns defines the operational limit. The device maintains this rate across its full industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) with appropriate VDD/VDDQ regulation.
Does W97AH2NBVA1E support partial array self-refresh (PASR)?
Yes, W97AH2NBVA1E supports PASR via mode registers MR16 (bank masking) and MR17 (segment masking), as documented in Sections 7.3.13–7.3.14 of the datasheet. This allows selective disabling of unused memory banks or segments during self-refresh, reducing current draw by up to 60% compared to full-array refresh-critical for battery-powered devices with asymmetric memory access patterns.
What package type and dimensions does W97AH2NBVA1E use?
W97AH2NBVA1E uses a 136-ball Very Thin Fine-Pitch Ball Grid Array (VFBGA) package measuring 8.0mm × 12.5mm with 0.65mm ball pitch and maximum height of 1.0mm. Ball configuration and mechanical drawings are specified in Section 4 (Ball Assignment) and Section 5 (Ball Configuration) of the datasheet, confirming compatibility with standard LPDDR2-S4B PCB footprints.
How is ZQ calibration implemented in W97AH2NBVA1E?
W97AH2NBVA1E implements ZQ calibration using an internal 240Ω reference resistor (RZQ) connected to the ZQ pin, as defined in Section 7.4.24 and Figure 7-44. Calibration adjusts RONPU/RONPD driver impedances dynamically to compensate for process, voltage, and temperature variation-ensuring stable HSUL_12 signal integrity without external calibration components.
Is W97AH2NBVA1E compatible with JEDEC JESD209-2A standard?
Yes, W97AH2NBVA1E fully complies with JEDEC JESD209-2A LPDDR2 specification, as stated in Section 1 (General Description) and verified across command truth tables (Section 7.5.1), timing diagrams (Section 7.4), and electrical parameters (Section 8). It supports all mandatory LPDDR2-1066 features including differential clocks/strobes, burst lengths 4/8, RL/WL programming, and deep power-down mode.
