5V Compatibility
Introduction
Technical Note
DDR3 SDRAM 1.35V-to-1.5V Compatibility
Introduction
DDR3 SDRAM Voltage Offerings
Micron® offers DDR3 SDRAM devices in two different operating voltage levels:
• 1.5V standard voltage for DDR3 devices
• 1.35V low voltage for DDR3L and DDR3L-RS devices
Note: The DDR3L-RS device is a low-power version of DDR3L that includes a tempera-
ture-compensated self refresh (TCSR) mode.
This technical note clarifies the voltage backward compatibility statement for 1.35V
DDR3L and DDR3L-RS devices.

TN-41-14: DDR3 SDRAM 1.35V-to-1.5V Compatibility
Conclusion
Conclusion
Micron 1.35V DDR3L and DDR3L-RS parts are backward compatible to 1.5V DDR3
parts. This means that a 1.35V device will function at the 1.5V voltage condition speci-
fied by JEDEC.
