Product details
Overview
7007S20J8 from IDT (Integrated Device Technology) is a high-speed 32K × 8 dual-port static RAM with true independent left/right ports, 20 ns maximum access time (industrial temperature range), TTL-compatible 5 V ±10% supply, and on-chip semaphore/interrupt arbitration logic. It enables simultaneous read access to the same memory location in real-time interprocessor communication systems.
For engineers reviewing the 7007S20J8 datasheet, 7007S20J8 pinout, 7007S20J8 application, or 7007S20J8 equivalent, key selection criteria include BUSY-flag arbitration timing (tBDD ≤ 30 ns), dual-port power-down current (ISB3 ≤ 0.2 mA), and Master/Slave configuration via M/S pin for 16-bit bus expansion.
Technical Context
The 7007S20J8 implements fully asynchronous dual-port operation with separate address, control, and I/O buses per port. Its on-chip arbitration logic resolves contention using either CE-controlled or address-match–based BUSY assertion, with tAPS = 5 ns setup time required for deterministic priority resolution.
It supports two distinct memory access modes: standard RAM access (CE = VIL, SEM = VIH) and semaphore register access (CE = VIH, SEM = VIL), with dedicated A0–A2 addressing for eight semaphore flags and interrupt flag control at fixed addresses 7FFEH (INTL) and 7FFFH (INTR).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 32K × 8 bits (256 Kbit total); supports independent concurrent reads/writes on left and right ports |
| Access Time (tAA) | 20 ns max (industrial grade, –40°C to +85°C); guarantees deterministic latency for real-time inter-processor handshaking |
| Supply Voltage | 5.0 V ±10%; compatible with legacy TTL logic families without level translation |
| Standby Current (ISB3) | 0.2 mA max (full standby, CMOS-level inputs); enables ultra-low-power sleep mode during idle port periods |
| Bus Width Expansion | Master/Slave (M/S) pin enables cascading for 16-bit+ data paths without external glue logic |
| Arbitration Logic | Hardware semaphore (SEML/SEMR), BUSY flag (BUSYL/BUSYR), and interrupt (INTL/INTR) support built-in - no firmware overhead |
| Package | 80-pin TQFP (14 mm × 14 mm × 1.4 mm); RoHS-compliant, green-part option available |
Pinout & Package
7007S20J8 is packaged in an 80-pin thin quad flatpack (TQFP) with 0.5 mm pitch, body size 14 mm × 14 mm × 1.4 mm. All VCC pins require local decoupling; all GND pins must be connected to system ground plane.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CEL / CER | Chip Enable (Left / Right) | Active-low enable per port; controls port power-down (ISB1–ISB4 states) and memory access gating |
| R/WL / R/WR | Read/Write Control (Left / Right) | Active-low write enable; determines data direction on I/OxL/I/OxR buses during CE-active cycles |
| OEL / OER | Output Enable (Left / Right) | Active-low tri-state control for I/O drivers; allows shared bus usage without external transceivers |
| A0L–A14L / A0R–A14R | Address Inputs (Left / Right) | 15-bit address buses (32K depth); independent addressing enables non-overlapping memory partitioning |
| I/O0L–I/O7L / I/O0R–I/O7R | Data I/O (Left / Right) | Bidirectional 8-bit data paths; electrically isolated per port to prevent contention-induced corruption |
| SEML / SEMR | Semaphore Enable (Left / Right) | Active-low select for semaphore register access (A0–A2 addressed); separates control-plane from data-plane operations |
| INTL / INTR | Interrupt Flag Output (Left / Right) | Open-drain compatible push-pull outputs; assert on cross-port writes to 7FFEH/7FFFH mailboxes |
| BUSYL / BUSYR | Busy Flag (Left / Right) | Push-pull outputs (Master) or inputs (Slave); signals arbitration conflict during simultaneous address match |
| M/S | Master/Slave Select | High = BUSY output (Master); Low = BUSY input (Slave); enables daisy-chained multi-device 16-bit systems |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| True Dual-Port Architecture | Enables simultaneous reads from identical addresses - critical for lock-free FIFOs and shared buffer coherency |
| Hardware Semaphore Logic | Eight dedicated semaphores (A0–A2 addressable) eliminate software mutex overhead and race conditions |
| Configurable Arbitration Mode | Supports both CE-driven and address-match–driven BUSY assertion, enabling flexible priority schemes |
| Low-Power Standby States | Four ISB modes (ISB1–ISB4) allow granular power gating per port or full chip, down to 0.2 mA |
| TTL-Compatible Interface | Direct connection to 5 V microcontrollers, FPGAs, and ASICs without level shifters or bus buffers |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Communication Hub | Avionics Data Concentrator |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-port SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY7C028V-20AXC | 20 ns access, 32K × 8, but requires external BUSY arbitration logic; no integrated semaphore or interrupt flags | Lacks hardware mailbox and semaphore registers - increases firmware complexity and latency | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs need for integrated arbitration; verify external logic fits timing budget |
| IDT70V27L20PF | Lower power (ISB3 = 0.1 mA), 3.3 V supply, but 25 ns access time and no M/S pin for bus expansion | Not pin-compatible; requires voltage translation and layout redesign; lacks Master/Slave cascading capability | Choose only for new 3.3 V designs where 5 ns slower access is acceptable and bus expansion is unnecessary |
Compared with CY7C028V-20AXC and IDT70V27L20PF, the 7007S20J8 uniquely delivers 20 ns industrial-grade access with integrated semaphore, interrupt, and M/S-configurable bus expansion - reducing BOM count and firmware overhead in real-time embedded systems.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the 7007S20J8?
The 7007S20J8 is rated for the industrial temperature range of –40°C to +85°C. This is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and DC Operating Conditions section of the official IDT datasheet (DSC 2940/16), where "7007S" denotes the industrial-speed grade with S-suffix packaging.
Does the 7007S20J8 support true simultaneous read operations from both ports to the same memory address?
Yes, the 7007S20J8 supports true simultaneous reads from identical addresses on left and right ports - a core feature explicitly stated in the "Features" section: "True Dual-Ported memory cells which allow simultaneous reads of the same memory location." This behavior is electrically guaranteed and does not trigger BUSY arbitration.
How is Master/Slave configuration implemented on the 7007S20J8?
Master/Slave configuration is controlled solely by the M/S pin: when M/S = HIGH, BUSYL and BUSYR function as outputs (Master mode); when M/S = LOW, they become inputs (Slave mode). This enables cascaded configurations for 16-bit-or-wider data buses, as documented in the Functional Block Diagram and Pin Names table of the 7007S20J8 datasheet.
What are the valid addresses for interrupt flag control in the 7007S20J8?
The 7007S20J8 uses fixed addresses for interrupt mailbox control: writing to address 7FFEH (hex) with CEL = R/WL = VIL asserts the left-port INTL flag, and writing to 7FFFH with CER = R/WR = VIL asserts the right-port INTR flag. These are defined in Truth Table III and the Functional Description section of the datasheet.
Can the 7007S20J8 operate with a 3.3 V supply?
No, the 7007S20J8 requires a 5.0 V ±10% supply (4.5 V to 5.5 V), as specified in the Recommended DC Operating Conditions table. It is TTL-compatible and not rated for 3.3 V operation; attempting 3.3 V supply will result in undefined functionality and potential data corruption.
