Product details
Overview
W987D6HBGX6I TR from Winbond is a 128Mb mobile low-power SDRAM (LPSDR) in x16 configuration, operating at 1.8V with 166MHz clock rate (CL=3), supporting partial array self-refresh (PASR) and automatic temperature-compensated self-refresh (ATCSR) for battery-powered handheld devices including 3G phones and digital still cameras.
For engineers reviewing the W987D6HBGX6I TR datasheet, W987D6HBGX6I TR pinout, W987D6HBGX6I TR application, or W987D6HBGX6I TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 54-ball VFBGA package, LVCMOS interface compliance, deep power-down mode (10μA), CAS latency options (2/3), and 4K/64ms refresh timing - all critical for portable memory subsystem design.
Technical Context
This LPSDR implements synchronous burst-mode operation with fully pipelined command decoding, supporting interleaved bank access, auto-precharge, and programmable burst lengths (1, 2, 4, 8, full page). Its internal architecture includes four independent banks, row/column multiplexed addressing (A0–A11 for rows, A0–A8 for columns in x16), and dedicated BA0/BA1 bank select lines.
The device integrates on-die ATCSR logic that dynamically adjusts self-refresh current based on die temperature (e.g., 180μA at 45°C → 230μA at 85°C for full-array refresh), and supports two power-down modes: standard (0.23mA) and deep (10μA), both entered via CKE deactivation with defined entry latencies (tSB ≤ 6ns for -6 speed grade).
