Product details
Overview
W9825G6KB-6 TR from Winbond is a 4M × 4 banks × 16-bit synchronous DRAM (SDRAM) operating at 166 MHz with CAS latency 3, 3.3V supply, and TFBGA-54 (8×8 mm²) packaging. It delivers 166 million words/second bandwidth and supports burst lengths of 1–8 and full-page, enabling high-throughput memory buffering in embedded controllers and industrial HMIs.
For engineers reviewing the W9825G6KB-6 TR datasheet, W9825G6KB-6 TR pinout, W9825G6KB-6 TR application, or W9825G6KB-6 TR equivalent, key selection criteria include CL3 timing compliance at 166 MHz, self-refresh capability up to 85°C, LVTTL interface compatibility, and TFBGA-54 ball mapping for PCB layout verification.
Technical Context
This SDRAM implements a fully synchronous architecture with programmable mode register control over burst type (sequential/interleave), burst length (1–8/full page), and CAS latency (2 or 3). Its four internal banks support interleaved access to hide precharge delays, and it uses multiplexed address pins (A0–A12) with bank select inputs (BS0/BS1) to manage row/column addressing across banks.
Functional operation relies on command decoding via RAS/CAS/WE/CS on CLK rising edges, supporting auto-precharge (A10=high), self-refresh (CKE low + CS/RAS/CAS low), power-down (CKE low), and burst stop. Refresh is managed via 8K cycles per 64 ms at ≤85°C or per 16 ms at 85–105°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 4,194,304 words × 4 banks × 16 bits - provides 128 Mbit total capacity with bank-level parallelism for pipelined access. |
| Clock Frequency | 166 MHz - enables 166 million words/second peak data throughput under CL3 timing constraints. |
| CAS Latency | CL = 3 - defines 3-clock-cycle delay between column address strobe and first valid read data output. |
| Burst Length | 1, 2, 4, 8, or full page - allows flexible data fetch size to match processor/cache line requirements without bus contention. |
| Refresh Rate | 8K cycles / 64 ms (≤85°C) - ensures data retention without external refresh controller intervention in standard industrial environments. |
| Supply Voltage | 3.3 V ± 0.3 V - compatible with legacy LVTTL I/O domains and eliminates need for level-shifting in 3.3V system designs. |
| Package | TFBGA-54 (8×8 mm², RoHS-compliant, lead-free) - surface-mount footprint optimized for compact industrial PCBs with thermal and signal integrity considerations. |
Pinout & Package
W9825G6KB-6 TR is packaged in a 54-ball thin fine-pitch BGA (TFBGA) with 0.8 mm pitch, 8 mm × 8 mm body size, and RoHS-compliant lead-free construction. Ball assignment follows JEDEC-standard SDRAM pinout with dedicated VDD/VSS/VDDQ/VSSQ rails for noise isolation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A12 | Address Input | Multiplexed row/column address lines; A10 controls all-bank vs. bank-specific precharge when sampled during command. |
| BS0, BS1 | Bank Select | Two-bit encoding selects one of four internal banks during activate or precharge commands. |
| DQ0–DQ15 | Data I/O | 16-bit bidirectional data bus; LDQM/UDQM enable byte-level masking for partial writes without read-modify-write overhead. |
| /CS, /RAS, /CAS, /WE | Command Control | Active-low command inputs decoded on CLK rising edge to execute bank activate, read, write, precharge, or mode register set. |
| CLK, CKE | Timing Control | CLK synchronizes all inputs; CKE gates internal clock - low enables power-down, self-refresh, or clock suspend modes. |
| LDQM, UDQM | I/O Mask | Low-active masks lower/upper 8 bits of DQ bus during reads (Hi-Z output) or writes (data blocking with zero latency). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Programmable Mode Register | Enables runtime configuration of burst length, CAS latency, and burst type (sequential/interleave) to match host controller timing profiles. |
| Auto-precharge Support | Automatically initiates bank precharge after read/write completion when A10 is asserted, reducing software overhead and improving burst efficiency. |
| Interleaved Bank Access | Allows concurrent activation of multiple banks to overlap precharge and access cycles, achieving continuous data flow without tRC bottlenecks. |
| Self-refresh Mode | Retains data with internal refresh counter while external clocks are halted - essential for low-power suspend states in battery-backed systems. |
| LVTTL-Compatible Interface | Direct integration with 3.3V microcontrollers and FPGAs without level shifters, simplifying board design and reducing BOM cost. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SDRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IS42S16400F-6BLI | Same 4M×4×16 organization, 166 MHz/CL3, TFBGA-54, but requires 2.5V core supply (VDDQ=2.5V) and supports only 1–4 burst lengths. | Not suitable for pure 3.3V systems; lacks full-page burst and interleave mode - limits bandwidth in high-CPU-utilization scenarios. | Select only if migrating from older ISSI-based designs with existing 2.5V I/O rail and no requirement for burst length >4. |
| MT48LC4M16A2P-6A | Identical 4M×4×16 structure and 166 MHz/CL3 rating, but in TSOP-54 package (not BGA); higher IDD current (4 mA vs. 2 mA) and no self-refresh above 70°C. | TSOP footprint increases PCB area and limits thermal performance; unsuitable for sealed enclosures exceeding 70°C ambient. | Choose only for legacy board re-spins where BGA rework is prohibited and operating temperature remains ≤70°C. |
Compared with IS42S16400F-6BLI and MT48LC4M16A2P-6A, W9825G6KB-6 TR offers native 3.3V LVTTL compatibility, full-page burst support, and validated self-refresh up to 85°C - making it optimal for new industrial designs prioritizing thermal margin and interface simplicity.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature supported by W9825G6KB-6 TR?
W9825G6KB-6 TR is rated for 0°C to 70°C case temperature per its -6 speed grade. It does not support self-refresh above 85°C, and operation beyond 70°C violates its specified industrial temperature range. For extended temperature use, the -6I variant (–40°C to 85°C) or -6J variant (–40°C to 105°C) must be selected instead of W9825G6KB-6 TR.
Does W9825G6KB-6 TR support full-page burst mode?
Yes, W9825G6KB-6 TR supports full-page burst mode as defined in its mode register configuration. This allows reading or writing all 512 columns in an open page with a single command, maximizing sequential bandwidth. However, auto-precharge is prohibited when full-page burst is active, as stated in section 7.14 of the datasheet.
Can W9825G6KB-6 TR be used with a 2.5V I/O interface?
No, W9825G6KB-6 TR requires a 3.3V ±0.3V supply for both VDD and VDDQ, and its input thresholds are specified for LVTTL logic levels. Using 2.5V I/O would violate DC operating conditions and risk unreliable command recognition or data corruption. It is incompatible with 2.5V-only memory controllers unless level translation is added externally.
What is the function of the LDQM and UDQM pins on W9825G6KB-6 TR?
LDQM (Lower Data Mask) and UDQM (Upper Data Mask) are active-low input pins that control byte-level masking on the 16-bit DQ bus. During reads, asserting either pin places the corresponding 8-bit segment in high-impedance state. During writes, asserting either pin blocks data transfer to that segment with zero latency - eliminating need for read-modify-write cycles in partial updates.
How many refresh cycles does W9825G6KB-6 TR require per 64 ms?
W9825G6KB-6 TR requires exactly 8,192 refresh cycles per 64 ms when operated within its rated temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. This equates to one refresh command every 7.8125 µs on average. The device internally tracks refresh addresses; external controller must issue CBR (CAS-before-RAS) refresh commands at this rate to maintain data integrity.
