The CY7C1412KV18-250BZCT is a Cypress QDR II synchronous SRAM delivering 36 Mbit organized as 2M x 18, clocked at 250 MHz. QDR II architecture reads and writes on both clock edges, effectively doubling data throughput per pin without raising the clock rate — a common choice in network packet buffers, line cards, and high-speed test equipment where back-to-back read-write turns are the norm and bus turnaround dead cycles are not acceptable.
Supply and temperature — the commercial design envelope
Core supply is 1.7 V–1.9 V, a tight window that demands a clean, low-noise rail — typical for 250 MHz synchronous memory.
Package and footprint — 165-LBGA
The package is surface-mount only; no socketed or through-hole option. Tape-and-reel delivery (TR) is standard, so the part feeds directly into a pick-and-place line.
For a production BOM, that means no forced redesign cycle from this line item in the near term — the part is in current manufacture and available through the standard Cypress (now Infineon) distribution channel.
