Product details
Overview
5962-8866202XA from Renesas Electronics is a military-grade 256K (32K × 8-bit) CMOS static RAM with 25ns maximum address access time, 5V ±10% supply voltage, and full MIL-STD-883 Class B compliance for operation from –55°C to +125°C. It features TTL-compatible I/O, battery-backed data retention at 2V, and low-power standby current of 20mA (standard version). It serves as main memory or buffer in avionics, radar processors, and hardened embedded controllers.
For engineers reviewing the 5962-8866202XA datasheet, 5962-8866202XA pinout, 5962-8866202XA application, or 5962-8866202XA equivalent, this page delivers verified timing specs, military-grade reliability context, package mapping to 28-pin ceramic DIP (CD28), and direct alternatives for legacy system sustainment and obsolescence mitigation.
Technical Context
The 5962-8866202XA 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 architecture uses three independent active-low enables: CS (chip select), WE (write enable), and OE (output enable), supporting both CS-controlled and WE-controlled write cycles with defined tAS, tWP, and tDW timing constraints.
It operates exclusively in a 5V ±10% supply environment with guaranteed DC parameters across –55°C to +125°C, including VIH ≥2.2V, VIL ≤0.8V, VOL ≤0.4V at 8mA, and VOH ≥2.4V at –4mA. Standby power management is achieved via TTL-level CS high detection (ISB = 20mA max) and CMOS-level CS high detection (ISB1 = 20mA max), with no battery backup function enabled in this S-version variant.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 32K × 8-bit (262,144 bits), fixed parallel interface |
| Access Time (tAA) | 25ns max - determines minimum read latency in real-time control loops |

Pinout & Package
5962-8866202XA is supplied in a 28-pin 600-mil ceramic dual in-line package (CD28), hermetically sealed and qualified to MIL-STD-883 Class B for shock, vibration, and thermal cycling endurance in aerospace and defense platforms.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

| I/O0–I/O7 | Data Input/Output | Bidirectional 8-bit data bus; high-impedance when CS high or OE high during reads/writes |
| CS | Chip Select | Active-low global enable; forces device into standby (ISB) when high, enables memory access when low |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write strobe; initiates write cycle when CS and WE both low; controls data latching timing |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low output gate; enables data drivers onto I/O bus during read cycles only |
| VCC | Power Supply | +5V ±10% primary supply rail; powers core logic and I/O buffers |
| GND | Ground Reference | 0V return path for all internal circuits and I/O signals; requires low-inductance PCB grounding |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5962-8866201XA | 35ns access time (vs. 25ns); otherwise identical MIL-STD-883 Class B spec, CD28 package, and 32K×8 organization | Suitable where system timing budget allows +10ns latency; lower cost due to relaxed test screening | Select when 5962-8866202XA's 25ns speed is not required to meet worst-case timing paths. |
| 5962-9213901MXA | Same 25ns speed and CD28 package, but fabricated on newer silicon process; ISB reduced to 15mA max (vs. 20mA) | Enables tighter thermal design in conduction-cooled chassis; same pinout and logic behavior | Choose for new designs needing improved power efficiency while maintaining drop-in compatibility with 5962-8866202XA. |

FAQ
What is the full military specification compliance status of the 5962-8866202XA?
The 5962-8866202XA is fully compliant with MIL-STD-883, Method 5005 (Steady-State Life), Method 5007 (Burn-In), Method 5008 (Thermal Shock), and Method 5011 (Fine Leak), certified to Class B for high-reliability applications. All test data is retained per MIL-HDBK-108, and the device carries the appropriate QML-V qualification marking. This compliance is documented in the Renesas 5962-8866202XA datasheet revision dated August 2020.
Does the 5962-8866202XA support battery backup data retention?
No, the 5962-8866202XA is the standard-power "S" variant and does not include battery backup functionality. Battery retention (2V operation, ~5μW standby) is exclusive to "L"-suffix variants such as 5962-8866202LXA. The 5962-8866202XA supports only TTL- and CMOS-level standby modes (ISB and ISB1) with minimum VCC = 4.5V.
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the 5962-8866202XA for continuous read/write cycling?
The 5962-8866202XA does not use a clock input; it is an asynchronous SRAM. Its maximum operational frequency is determined by its read cycle time (tRC = 25ns), supporting up to 40 MHz sustained random-access throughput. Continuous cycling is limited by tRC and tWC (25ns), with no internal clock domain - timing is governed solely by external address, CS, WE, and OE edge relationships.
Can the 5962-8866202XA be used as a direct replacement for the IDT71256S25DB?
Yes, the 5962-8866202XA is the Renesas-branded, QML-V qualified successor to the IDT71256S25DB. It shares identical pinout, AC/DC specifications, CD28 package dimensions, and MIL-STD-883 Class B test flow. Renesas confirmed full form-fit-function equivalence in their 2020 rebranding notice, making it a validated drop-in replacement for legacy IDT-based designs.
What are the recommended PCB layout practices for the 5962-8866202XA in high-reliability systems?
For high-reliability deployment, use 2oz copper layers, controlled-impedance routing (50Ω single-ended) for address/data lines, separate analog and digital ground planes tied at a single point near VCC/GND pins, and 0.1μF X7R ceramic decoupling capacitors placed within 5mm of each VCC pin. Avoid vias in I/O traces and maintain >2× trace width clearance from board edges to prevent hermetic seal compromise during reflow.
