LPDDR are DRAM devices optimized specifically to address the power consumption issues in battery-operated applications. It was originally developed for handsets and ultra-portables.​

Some of the reasons you would use LPDDR over other options are:

  • Performance: peak bandwidth 33% faster compared to DDR4
  • Optimization: x32 configuration offers BOM savings for certain low density applications
  • Power Consumption: 5 times lower power consumption in standby mode compared to standard DRAM
  • Space, form factor, weight: MCP (Multi chip package) and PoP (package-on-package) designs save PCB Space

 

Key features

  • Densities: 4 Gb to 128 Gb - Provides flexibility for a variety of applications
  • Configurations: x16, x32, x64 - Enables fewer components to support wide bus architect.
  • Core voltages: 0.6 V, 1.1 V - Helps reduce power consumption
  • Temperature ranges: –40 ˚C to +95 ˚C IT, –40 ˚C to +105 ˚C AT, –40 ˚C to +125 ˚C UT

 

Additional features

  • Configurations: x32, (2 channels, x16), x64 (4 channels, x16) - Enables the use of fewer components to support wide bus architectures.
  • Core voltages: 0.6 V, 1.1 V - Helps reduce power consumption, a key advantage over standard DRAM.
  • Clock frequencies: up to 2133 MHz - Provides high performance, high bandwidth, and low power consumption.
  • Power consumption - Delivers low power consumption in standby and active modes, plus special mobile features to reduce power for a more efficient design (refer to datasheet for details).
     

Special features:

  • Temperature-compensated self-refresh (TCSR) - Adjusts refresh timing to minimize power consumption at lower, ambient temperatures
  • Partial-array self-refresh (PASR) - Reduces power by refreshing only critical data
  • Deep power-down (DPD) - Provides an ultra-low power state when data retention is not required
  • Programmable drive strength (DS) - Enables adjustment for operation in point-to-point and point-to-2-point applications
  • Programmable VOH signal level - Enables adjustment for operation in point-to-point and point-to-2-point applications
  • Temperature ranges - Enables high performance in extreme environments: -40 ˚C to +95 ˚C (IT) -40 ˚C to +105 ˚C (AT) -40 ˚C to +125 ˚C (UT Ultra2)
  • Packages PoP - Saves board space by enabling a Mobile LPDRAM to be stacked on top of a processor so that the two components require only one footprint on the board
  • Known good die (KGD) - Supports bare die with edge bond pads for easy stacking in SIP and MCP solutions
  • FBGA - Supports JEDEC-standard FBGA ballout

 

Applications

  • Automotive – Infotainment, ADAS, communications, clusters
  • Industrial – POS/Retail
  • Consumer – AR/VR, home automation, DSC/DVCs
  • Networking – Machine-to-Machine (M2M) devices, USB dongles
  • Security – Fingerprint detectors, digital surveillance
  • Client – Notebooks, ultrathins, convertibles, detachables
  • Graphics – Portable games
  • Medical - Patient monitor, defibrillator, Ptbl ultrasound
