Overview of M16U4G16256A (2Z) – Automotive grade -40~95°C/ -40~105°C, DDR4 SDRAM, 1.2V
The M16U4G16256A (2Z) is a DDR4 SDRAM memory device from ESMT designed as a 256M × 16 DRAM organized for parallel memory interfaces. It provides 4.295 Gbit of volatile storage with JEDEC qualification and RoHS compliance. With documented operating temperature down to -40 °C and up to 105 °C and a high clock capability, it targets electronic designs that require compact BGA packaging, established JEDEC DDR4 architecture, and stable timing characteristics.
Key Features
- Memory Architecture — DDR4 SDRAM organized as 256M × 16 for a total memory size of 4.295 Gbit, optimized for parallel memory interfaces.
- Performance — Clock frequency up to 1.6 GHz to support high-speed DDR4 operation; access time specified at 14.25 ns for responsive memory access.
- Timing — Write cycle time for word page operations of 15 ns, delivering predictable write timing for system designs.
- Power — Voltage supply specified as 2.5 V in product data; use this parameter when designing power rails and level translation.
- Package & Mounting — Supplied in a 96 Ball BGA package with surface mount assembly, enabling compact PCB layout and high density placement.
- Temperature Range & Qualification — Operating temperature rated from -40 °C to 105 °C and specified as Grade: Automotive; qualification listed as JEDEC.
- Compliance — RoHS status: Compliant, supporting regulatory requirements for lead-free designs.
Typical Applications
- Embedded memory subsystems — Use as DDR4 volatile storage in systems that require parallel memory interfaces and JEDEC DDR4 architecture.
- High-temperature electronics — Suitable for designs requiring operation across a wide temperature range (−40 °C to 105 °C) as specified.
- Compact PCB designs — 96 Ball BGA surface-mount package enables high-density board layouts where footprint and routing are constrained.
- Systems requiring defined timing — Controlled access time and write cycle time support designs that depend on predictable DRAM timing behavior.
