ISSI 512Mb High Speed DDR2 SDRAM for automotive, networking, telecom and industrial apps

SAN JOSE, USA: Integrated Silicon Solution Inc., a leader in advanced memory solutions, has added the 512Mb density to its family of DDR2 SDRAMs.

The IS43DR16320B (512Mb) device is organized as 32Mx16 and is available in an 84 ball BGA package. The continued expansion of the DDR2 SDRAM product family adds to ISSI's already extensive offering of DRAMs.

The IS43DR16320B is available with clock speeds up to 400MHz (DDR2-800), providing a data transfer rate of 3 gigabytes/sec in 32 bit systems. In addition to the 512Mb device, ISSI offers 256Mb DDR2 devices, with both densities available in commercial, industrial and automotive grades.

The 256Mb density devices include 8Mx32 and 16Mx16 organizations. In Q1 of 2010, ISSI will add 1Gb devices organized as 64Mx16 and 128Mx8 as well as x8 versions of the 256Mb and 512Mb devices. The DDR2 DRAM product family operates from a single supply voltage of 1.8V.

"DDR2 SDRAMs are being introduced in order to support the needs of our strategic customer base. Expanding our DDR2 SDRAM product offering is part of ISSI's long-term commitment to support a complete range of high-quality DRAMs using leading-edge technology," said Ron Kalakuntla, ISSI Vice President of Marketing.

"We will continue to invest in our DRAM product line to include a variety of interfaces, densities, organizations, and temperature ranges targeted for Automotive, Networking, Telecom, and Digital Consumer Applications."

Key applications in networking and telecom include access nodes, aggregation nodes, VoIP, switches, routers, and packet optical transport. Automotive applications are infotainment and telematics. Other applications include network storage, set-top boxes, DVRs, and others.

In addition to SDR, mobile SDR/DDR, DDR, and DDR2 SDRAMs, ISSI also offers a complete line of both asynchronous and synchronous SRAM with densities from 64Kb to 72Mb. ISSI also has a range of Known Good Die (KGD) memories in its portfolio.

For quantities of 10,000, the IS43DR16320B, in an 84 ball BGA package with a commercial operating temperature range of 0 degrees C to 85 degrees C(Tcase), is priced at $5.00. Samples are available now with volume production shipments beginning in Q1, 2010. Samples of the automotive version, the IS46DR16320B, are also available.
