Product details
Overview
W97BH2MBVA1E TR from Winbond is a 2Gb LPDDR2-S4B mobile SDRAM in 136-ball VFBGA (8mm × 12.5mm, 0.5mm pitch), supporting 800 Mbps/pin data rate (LPDDR2-800), 1.2V core/VDDQ supply, and 16-bit bus width. It serves as main memory in space-constrained portable devices requiring low-power, high-bandwidth data buffering - e.g., entry-level smartphones and IoT edge controllers.
For engineers reviewing the W97BH2MBVA1E TR datasheet, W97BH2MBVA1E TR pinout, W97BH2MBVA1E TR application, or W97BH2MBVA1E TR equivalent, key selection criteria include LPDDR2-800 timing compliance (tRCD = 3, tRP = 3), PASR bank/segment masking support, ZQ calibration capability, and deep power-down mode for battery-sensitive designs.
Technical Context
This device implements a 4-bank, 16-bit-wide LPDDR2 architecture with dual-channel differential clock (CK_t/CK_c) and strobe (DQS_t/DQS_c) interfaces, supporting burst lengths of 4 and 8, read/write latencies RL=3/RL=5 and WL=1, and seamless burst transitions (tCCD = 2). It integrates on-die termination (ODT) controlled via MR registers and supports HSUL_12 I/O standard.
Power management includes three low-power states: Power-Down (entry/exit within 1–2 cycles), Deep Power-Down (retention current <10 µA), and Self-Refresh (tRFC = 160 ns max at 85°C). Temperature-sensing and DQ calibration (MR32/MR40) are implemented for signal integrity across voltage/temperature corners.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 2 Gb (256M × 8-bit organization, 16-bit bus) |
| Data Rate | 800 Mbps/pin (LPDDR2-800, 400 MHz clock) |
| Supply Voltage | VDD/VDDQ = 1.2V ± 0.06V - enables compatibility with modern PMICs and reduces dynamic power vs. 1.8V DDR2 |
| Burst Length | Configurable BL=4 or BL=8 - balances bandwidth efficiency and command overhead in burst-oriented traffic |
| tRCD / tRP | 3 clock cycles each - defines minimum row activation-to-read/write and precharge delays for stable bank switching |
| ZQ Calibration | Supported via MRW to MR10 - dynamically adjusts output driver impedance (RONPU/RONPD) to maintain signal integrity across PVT variation |
| Operating Temp | -25°C to +85°C case temperature - validated for consumer and industrial portable applications |
Pinout & Package
W97BH2MBVA1E TR uses a 136-ball Very Fine Pitch Ball Grid Array (VFBGA) package measuring 8.0 mm × 12.5 mm with 0.5 mm ball pitch. The ball map follows JEDEC MO-245AA and supports 16-bit data (DQ0–DQ15), 14-bit address/command (A0–A13, BA0–BA1), and dual-differential clock/strobe pairs (CK_t/CK_c, DQS_t/DQS_c).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A13 | Address Inputs | Row/column address bits for 256M-word addressing; A10 controls auto-precharge |
| BA0–BA1 | Bank Address | Selects one of four internal banks; enables concurrent bank operations |
| DQ0–DQ15 | Data I/O | 16-bit bidirectional data bus using HSUL_12 I/O standard with programmable ODT |
| CK_t / CK_c | Differential Clock | Edge-triggered system clock pair; CK_t rising edge initiates commands and data transfers |
| DQS_t / DQS_c | Differential Strobe | Source-synchronous data strobe for read/write capture; phase-aligned to DQ edges |
| CS_n | Chip Select | Active-low command enable; deassertion halts command decoding and enters low-power state |
| CKE | Clock Enable | Gates internal clock domains; low → Power-Down; pulsed → Self-Refresh entry/exit |
| DM | Data Mask | Per-byte write mask (active-high); suppresses DQ writes without altering command sequence |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Partial Array Self-Refresh (PASR) | MR16/MR17 enable selective bank/segment retention during self-refresh - cuts leakage by >50% vs. full-array refresh |
| Temperature Sensor Interface | MR4 register reports die temperature via dedicated analog sensor - enables thermal-aware power management in handhelds |
| Deep Power-Down Mode | Current draw <10 µA with retained configuration - extends battery life in standby for always-on sensors and BLE gateways |
| Programmable Read/Write Latency | RL=3 or RL=5 and WL=1 configurable via MR - allows latency tuning for SoC PHY timing closure |
| On-Die Termination (ODT) | Dynamic ODT control via MR3 - eliminates external termination resistors and simplifies PCB routing |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LPDDR2 memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MT42L256M16CM-125K | 2Gb LPDDR2-1066 (533 MHz), 153-ball VFBGA, 1.2V, tRCD = 4 | Higher bandwidth but tighter timing margins; requires more aggressive SoC PHY tuning | Choose when system clock budget supports 533 MHz and board layout accommodates larger 9mm × 13.5mm package |
| K4P2G324EC-AC25 | 2Gb LPDDR2-800, 136-ball VFBGA, 1.2V, tRCD = 3, but no integrated temperature sensor or PASR segment masking | Lacks MR4 temperature reporting and MR17 segment-level self-refresh control | Prefer when thermal monitoring and fine-grained power gating are not required; lower cost in high-volume procurement |
Compared with MT42L256M16CM-125K and K4P2G324EC-AC25, W97BH2MBVA1E TR uniquely combines LPDDR2-800 timing compliance (tRCD = 3), PASR bank/segment masking, and on-die temperature sensing - enabling optimized power/performance trade-offs in thermally constrained portable designs without sacrificing pin compatibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported data rate for W97BH2MBVA1E TR?
W97BH2MBVA1E TR supports LPDDR2-800 operation at 800 Mbps per pin, corresponding to a 400 MHz differential clock frequency. This is confirmed in the device's AC timing specifications (tCK = 2.5 ns min) and functional description section of the official datasheet revision A01-002. The part does not support LPDDR2-1066 or higher rates.
Does W97BH2MBVA1E TR support ZQ calibration, and how is it initiated?
Yes, W97BH2MBVA1E TR supports ZQ calibration via Mode Register Write (MRW) to MR10. Calibration can be performed as initialization (ZQINIT), short (ZQSHORT), or long (ZQLONG) based on system requirements. The ZQ external resistor must be 240 Ω ±1% with ≤0.5 pF capacitive loading, as specified in section 7.4.24.5 of the datasheet.
What power-saving modes are available in W97BH2MBVA1E TR, and what are their typical current draws?
W97BH2MBVA1E TR offers Power-Down (IDD2P ≈ 35 µA), Deep Power-Down (IDD6 ≈ 8 µA), and Self-Refresh (IDD4R ≈ 45 µA at 85°C). These values are measured under JEDEC-specified conditions in section 8.3.2 of the datasheet. Deep Power-Down retains all configuration registers but disables refresh; exit latency is 200 µs max.
Is W97BH2MBVA1E TR pin-compatible with other Winbond LPDDR2 devices like W97BH6MBVA1E TR?
No - W97BH2MBVA1E TR (2Gb) and W97BH6MBVA1E TR (6Gb) share the same 136-ball VFBGA package and ball assignment per JEDEC MO-245AA, but differ in internal bank count, addressing depth, and certain MR bit definitions. While mechanical mounting is identical, firmware initialization sequences and timing parameters (e.g., tRFC) are not interchangeable.
How is temperature monitoring implemented in W97BH2MBVA1E TR?
W97BH2MBVA1E TR includes an on-die analog temperature sensor readable via Mode Register MR4 (MA[7:0] = 04H). The register returns a 4-bit value corresponding to discrete temperature ranges (e.g., 0x0 = <−10°C, 0xF = >100°C), enabling host SoC to trigger thermal throttling or adjust refresh rate - as detailed in section 7.4.21 of the datasheet.
