The Infineon CY7C1312KV18-333BZC is a 18Mbit QDR II synchronous SRAM organized as 1M x 18, clocked at 333 MHz. QDR II means two independent read and two independent write ports on each clock edge, giving four data words per cycle — a 333 MHz clock delivers an effective 1.332 Gtransfers/s bandwidth into the memory array. This matters for high-throughput applications like network packet buffers, telecom line cards, and test equipment where the memory controller needs back-to-back read-write without bus-turnaround dead cycles. The parallel interface keeps the pin count manageable for the 165-FBGA footprint.
Supply range is 1.7V to 1.9V, which aligns with 1.8V nominal logic families common in high-speed SRAM designs. The 1.7V minimum gives headroom for rail droop under load; the 1.9V maximum is the absolute ceiling for the core. If your board runs a 1.8V rail, this part drops straight in with no extra regulator.
