Product details
Overview
7008L55PFI from IDT is a high-speed 64K × 8 true dual-ported static RAM with independent left/right ports, 55 ns maximum access time, TTL-compatible 5 V ±10% supply, and integrated semaphore/arbitration logic for inter-processor communication in real-time embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the 7008L55PFI datasheet, 7008L55PFI pinout, 7008L55PFI application, or 7008L55PFI equivalent, key selection criteria include BUSY flag arbitration timing (tBDD ≤ 55 ns), low standby power (1 mW typ.), industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), and 100-pin TQFP package compatibility with memory coherency protocols.
Technical Context
The 7008L55PFI implements fully asynchronous dual-port operation with separate address, control, and I/O buses per port-enabling simultaneous read/write access to any memory location without contention. Its on-chip arbitration logic uses push-pull BUSY outputs (not tri-state) and supports Master/Slave cascading via M/S pin for 16-bit+ word expansion.
It integrates dedicated semaphore registers (8 flags, addressed by A0–A2) accessible only when CE = VIH and SEM = VIL, with write-to-read latency tSWRD = 5 ns and contention window tSPS = 5 ns. Interrupt flags (INTL/INTR) are triggered by writes to fixed addresses FFFEH (left) and FFFFH (right).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 64K × 8 bits (512 Kbit), fully random-access SRAM array |
| Access Time (max) | 55 ns - defines minimum read cycle time (tRC) for worst-case timing closure |
| Supply Voltage | 5.0 V ±10% - single TTL-compatible rail; all VCC pins require connection |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade reliability and thermal stability |
| Standby Current (typ) | 1 mW - achieved via full CMOS standby mode (ISB3 ≤ 5 µA at VCC = 5 V) |
| Package | 100-pin TQFP - 14 mm × 14 mm body, lead pitch 0.5 mm, RoHS-compliant |
| BUSY Arbitration | Push-pull output (not open-drain); tBDD ≤ 55 ns ensures valid data before BUSY deassertion |
Pinout & Package
7008L55PFI is packaged in a 100-pin Thin Quad Flatpack (TQFP) with exposed thermal pad, 0.5 mm pitch, and 14 mm × 14 mm footprint. Pin 1 marked via corner notch; pin numbering follows standard counter-clockwise sequence from top-left.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0L–A15L | Left port address inputs | 16-bit address bus for left-side memory access; must be stable before CE0L assertion |
| A0R–A15R | Right port address inputs | Independent 16-bit address bus; enables concurrent addressing of same or different locations |
| I/O0L–I/O7L | Left port bidirectional data | 8-bit data path; direction controlled by R/WL and OEL; high-impedance when disabled |
| I/O0R–I/O7R | Right port bidirectional data | Electrically isolated from left port; no shared bus loading or timing coupling |
| CE0L, CE1L | Left port chip enables | TTL/CMOS-compatible active-low enables; dual CE allows depth expansion without external logic |
| CE0R, CE1R | Right port chip enables | Independent enable control per port; supports selective power-down of inactive port |
| R/WL, R/WR | Read/write control | Active-low write enable; determines data flow direction on respective I/O bus |
| OEL, OER | Output enable | Controls three-state output drivers; required LOW for read data assertion |
| SEML, SEMR | Semaphore enable | Activates semaphore register access (A0–A2) when CE = VIH and SEM = VIL |
| INTL, INTR | Interrupt flags | Open-collector compatible (per datasheet note), asserted by opposite-port mailbox writes |
| BUSYL, BUSYR | Arbitration flags | Push-pull outputs (not tri-state); indicate port contention; M/S pin configures MASTER/SLAVE role |
| M/S | Master/Slave select | VIL configures as SLAVE (BUSY input); VIH configures as MASTER (BUSY output) |
| VCC, GND | Power & ground | Multiple VCC/GND pins required-must all be connected per datasheet Note 1 & 4 |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| True dual-port architecture | Simultaneous independent reads/writes to same memory location without internal contention |
| Hardware semaphore support | Eight dedicated flags (A0–A2) with 5 ns write-to-read latency (tSWRD) for deterministic resource locking |
| Port arbitration with BUSY signaling | Push-pull BUSY outputs enforce write inhibition during contention; tBDD ≤ 55 ns guarantees data validity window |
| Low-power standby modes | 1 mW typical standby (ISB3) via full CMOS shutdown-critical for battery-backed or energy-sensitive systems |
| Master/Slave cascading | M/S pin enables seamless 16-bit+ bus expansion using multiple 7008L55PFI devices without glue logic |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY7C028V-55AXC | 55 ns access, 64K × 16 organization, 3.3 V supply, 100-pin TQFP | Wider data bus but incompatible voltage; requires level-shifting for 5 V systems | Select only if migrating to 3.3 V architecture and needing 16-bit word access |
| IDT70V27L25PF | 25 ns access, 32K × 16, 3.3 V supply, 100-pin TQFP, LVDS-compatible | Faster but lower density and voltage-incompatible; lacks BUSY arbitration logic | Choose for high-speed 3.3 V designs where arbitration is handled externally |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the 7008L55PFI?
The 7008L55PFI is rated for industrial temperature operation from –40°C to +85°C. This specification is validated per datasheet Table 6 and applies to all AC/DC electrical parameters within the 5.0 V ±10% supply range. The device uses CMOS process technology optimized for thermal stability across this full range.
Does the 7008L55PFI support true simultaneous read operations on both ports?
Yes, the 7008L55PFI implements true dual-ported memory cells that allow simultaneous reads from both left and right ports-even to the same memory address-without contention or timing penalty. This is confirmed in the Functional Description section and enabled by independent address/control/I/O paths per port.
How does the BUSY arbitration logic function in Master vs. Slave configuration on the 7008L55PFI?
When M/S = VIH, the 7008L55PFI operates as Master: BUSYL and BUSYR are push-pull outputs asserting contention. When M/S = VIL, it operates as Slave: BUSYL and BUSYR become inputs that inhibit writes internally. This behavior is defined in Notes 1 and 2 of the Functional Block Diagram and verified in Truth Table V.
What are the power consumption characteristics of the 7008L55PFI in standby mode?
The 7008L55PFI achieves 1 mW typical standby power (ISB3 ≤ 5 µA at VCC = 5 V) when both ports are fully disabled with CMOS-level inputs. This is documented in Table 10b for the "L" variant at 55 ns speed grade and is critical for low-power industrial applications.
Can the 7008L55PFI be used for semaphore-based resource locking between two processors?
Yes-the 7008L55PFI includes eight dedicated hardware semaphore flags accessed via A0–A2 when CE = VIH and SEM = VIL. Each flag supports atomic write/read with tSWRD = 5 ns and tSPS = 5 ns contention window, enabling deterministic, lock-free synchronization between independent processors.
