Product details
Overview
5962-8855201UA from Renesas Electronics is a 256K (32K × 8-bit) military-grade CMOS static RAM with 25ns access time, TTL-compatible I/O, and full MIL-STD-883 Class B compliance for operation from –55°C to +125°C. It features low-power standby (20mA), battery backup data retention at 2V, and is packaged in a 28-pin 600-mil ceramic DIP (CD28) for high-reliability avionics and defense systems.
For engineers reviewing the 5962-8855201UA datasheet, 5962-8855201UA pinout, 5962-8855201UA application, or 5962-8855201UA equivalent, key selection criteria include military temperature qualification, 25ns read cycle timing, CS-controlled standby entry, 2V data retention capability, and ceramic DIP packaging for hermetic reliability in harsh environments.
Technical Context
The 5962-8855201UA implements a fully decoded 15-bit address space (A0–A14) driving a 262,144-bit memory array with bidirectional 8-bit data I/O (I/O0–I/O7). Its control logic uses three independent active-low enables-CS, WE, and OE-with defined priority: CS gates both read and write operations, while OE enables output drivers only during reads and WE controls write latching.
Timing behavior is strictly defined per MIL-STD-883: tAA = 25ns max, tRC = 25ns, tACS = 25ns, and tCHZ = 11ns max under military conditions (–55°C to +125°C, VCC = 5.0V ±10%). Standby current ISB is guaranteed ≤20mA (S version) with CS > VIH, and full CMOS-level standby (ISB1) draws ≤20mA when CS > VHC and f = 0.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 32K × 8-bit (262,144 bits), single-port SRAM with byte-wide I/O |
| Access Time (tAA) | 25ns maximum at –55°C to +125°C - ensures deterministic timing in flight-critical systems |
| Supply Voltage | 5.0V ±10% - compatible with legacy 5V TTL/CMOS logic rails without level shifting |
| Operating Temperature | –55°C to +125°C - qualified per MIL-STD-883 Class B for extended environmental survivability |
| Data Retention | 2V minimum VCC - enables battery-backed operation during main power loss in mission-critical hold mode |
| Standby Current (ISB) | ≤20mA at VCC max - reduces system-level power draw during idle without disabling memory state |
| Package | 28-pin 600-mil ceramic DIP (CD28) - hermetically sealed, high-reliability package for aerospace use |
Pinout & Package
5962-8855201UA is supplied in a 28-pin 600-mil ceramic dual in-line package (CD28), compliant with MIL-PRF-38535 and MIL-STD-883 Class B screening requirements. The package provides hermetic sealing, low thermal resistance, and long-term stability under thermal cycling and humidity exposure.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A14 | Address Inputs | 15-bit parallel address bus accepting TTL-compatible levels; fully decoded to select one of 32,768 locations |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Bus | 8-bit TTL-compatible I/O lines; high-impedance when CS HIGH or OE HIGH during reads, or WE HIGH during writes |
| CS | Chip Select | Active-low master enable: disables all internal functions and forces standby when HIGH; required LOW for any access |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write control: latches data on I/O bus into memory when CS and WE are both LOW |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low output control: enables I/O drivers only during read cycles; no effect during writes |
| VCC | Power Supply | +5V ±10% supply input; powers core logic and I/O buffers; decoupling required per MIL-STD-1399 |
| GND | Ground Reference | Signal and power ground reference plane; must be connected to system common ground with low-inductance path |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MIL-STD-883 Class B Qualification | Full screening including burn-in, temperature cycling, and hermeticity testing - certifies suitability for flight hardware |
| 2V Data Retention | Retains stored data with VCC as low as 2.0V - enables seamless transition to backup battery without volatile loss |
| TTL-Compatible I/O | VIH = 2.2V min, VIL = 0.8V max - interoperates directly with legacy 5V TTL microprocessors and peripherals |
| CS-Controlled Standby Mode | Automatically enters low-power state when CS goes HIGH - eliminates need for external power management logic |
| 25ns Military-Speed Timing | tAA/tRC = 25ns max across full –55°C to +125°C range - supports real-time processing in radar and telemetry subsystems |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-reliability SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5962-8957201XA | Same 32K×8 organization and CD28 package, but rated for 35ns access (tAA = 35ns max) and wider voltage tolerance (4.5–5.5V) | Suitable for less timing-critical subsystems where 25ns is not required; lower cost due to relaxed speed binning | Select when system timing budget allows ≥35ns access and full MIL-STD-883 Class B is still mandatory |
| 5962-9213201MXA | 256K × 4-bit organization (two 256K×4 devices required for 8-bit bus), 28-pin SOJ package, 25ns speed, same temp range | Requires board-level redesign for 4-bit interface; SOJ offers smaller footprint but lower hermeticity than ceramic DIP | Choose only if PCB space constraints prohibit CD28 and dual-device routing is acceptable |
Compared with 5962-8855201UA, 5962-8957201XA trades 10ns of speed margin for cost efficiency in non-real-time modules, while 5962-9213201MXA sacrifices package robustness and increases component count to achieve footprint reduction - neither offers direct pin-to-pin replacement.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range certified for 5962-8855201UA?
The 5962-8855201UA is fully qualified per MIL-STD-883 Class B for continuous operation from –55°C to +125°C. This rating is verified through temperature cycling, steady-state bias, and parametric testing across the full range - not extrapolated. All AC and DC specifications in the Renesas datasheet (Rev. Aug.06.20) apply within this envelope. The 5962-8855201UA maintains tAA ≤25ns and ISB ≤20mA throughout this span.
Does 5962-8855201UA support true battery backup operation below 5V?
Yes - the 5962-8855201UA supports guaranteed data retention at VCC = 2.0V minimum, as specified in Table 11 (Data Retention Characteristics). In this mode, ICCDR is ≤500μA (military grade), enabling operation from primary lithium or NiCd backup cells without regulation. The 5962-8855201UA retains full memory contents indefinitely at 2V as long as ambient temperature remains within –55°C to +125°C and no write cycles occur.
Is 5962-8855201UA pin-compatible with commercial-grade IDT71256L25DB?
No - although both share the same CD28 package and 28-pin layout, the 5962-8855201UA incorporates additional MIL-STD-883 screening, tighter parameter tolerances (e.g., tCHZ = 11ns vs. 15ns), and enhanced process controls that preclude guaranteed interchangeability. The 5962-8855201UA is a distinct QML-V qualified part; substituting it for IDT71256L25DB requires requalification per DO-254 or MIL-HDBK-217.
What is the meaning of "S" suffix in 5962-8855201UA's ordering code?
The "S" in 5962-8855201UA denotes the standard-power variant of the 71256 family, distinguishing it from the low-power "L" variant (e.g., 5962-8855201LA). The "S" version draws ≤135mA dynamic current (ICC) and ≤20mA standby current (ISB), optimized for systems where speed takes precedence over ultra-low quiescent power. The 5962-8855201UA uses the same die as IDT71256S25DB but undergoes full QML-V flow.
Can 5962-8855201UA be used with 3.3V logic interfaces?
No - the 5962-8855201UA is strictly a 5V-only device. Its input thresholds (VIH = 2.2V min, VIL = 0.8V max) and output drive (VOH ≥2.4V at –4mA, VOL ≤0.4V at 8mA) are specified only for VCC = 4.5–5.5V. Interfacing with 3.3V systems requires level translation; the 5962-8855201UA does not support mixed-voltage operation or I/O tolerance outside its 5V rail.
