QDR II SRAM for high-bandwidth data-path applications
It is designed for applications that demand sustained read and write bandwidth without bus-turnaround dead cycles — the QDR II architecture provides separate read and write ports, eliminating the need to alternate direction on a shared bus. It is supplied in a 165-ball FBGA (15x17 mm) package for surface-mount assembly.
A 375 MHz clock corresponds to a 2.67 ns cycle time. With QDR II's double-data-rate operation on both read and write ports, the effective data window per pin is under 1.34 ns. The PCB designer must budget for trace-length matching, controlled impedance, and adequate decoupling on the 1.7V–1.9V rail to maintain signal integrity. The 165-FBGA package with its fine ball pitch demands careful fan-out planning — the 15x17 mm footprint does not leave room for oversized vias under the body.
Any buyer adding this to a new BOM should qualify an alternate QDR II SRAM from the same or a compatible family.
