Product details
Overview
70261S25PF8 from IDT (now Renesas) is a high-speed 16K × 16 true dual-port static RAM with interrupt and semaphore logic, operating at 25 ns max access time (commercial/industrial), supporting independent asynchronous reads/writes on left and right ports, and used in real-time inter-processor communication systems such as radar signal processors and industrial PLC backplanes.
For engineers reviewing the 70261S25PF8 datasheet, 70261S25PF8 pinout, 70261S25PF8 application, or 70261S25PF8 equivalent, key selection considerations include port arbitration timing (tBDD ≤ 30 ns), interrupt flag behavior (INTL/INTR set/clear via dedicated addresses 3FFE/3FFF), dual-byte control (UBL/LBL), and 100-pin TQFP packaging with 5 V ±10% supply compatibility.
Technical Context
The 70261S25PF8 implements full hardware port arbitration using push-pull BUSY signaling (not open-drain), with master/slave configuration via M/S pin to enable cascaded 32-bit+ memory expansion. Its on-chip semaphore logic supports eight shared flags addressed by A0–A2, accessed only when CE = VIH and SEM = VIL.
It features separate upper- and lower-byte enables (UBL/LBL), independent chip enables per port (CEL/CER), and fully asynchronous operation - no clock required. The device uses CMOS technology, draws 170 mA typical dynamic current (both ports active), and enters low-power standby (≤25 mA ISB1) when CE is deasserted.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 16,384 × 16 bits (256 KB total); supports simultaneous read/write to same address with BUSY arbitration |
| Access Time | 25 ns max (tAA, tACE, tABE); ensures sub-40 MHz sustained dual-port throughput in real-time control loops |
| Supply Voltage | 5.0 V ±10% (4.5–5.5 V); TTL-compatible interface eliminates level-shifting in legacy 5 V systems |
| Operating Temp | −40°C to +85°C (industrial grade); validated for use in motor drives and outdoor telecom equipment |
| Power Dissipation | Active: 750 mW typ.; Standby: 5 mW typ. (IDT70261S variant); enables thermal management in dense FPGA co-processor modules |
| Interrupt Logic | Dedicated mailbox addresses 3FFEH (INTL) and 3FFFH (INTR); enables lock-free inter-core messaging without software polling |
| Semaphore Count | 8 hardware flags, addressed by A0–A2; allows fine-grained resource locking across two independent processor domains |
Pinout & Package
70261S25PF8 is housed in a 100-pin Thin Quad Flatpack (TQFP) with 0.5 mm pitch, body size 14 mm × 14 mm × 1.4 mm. All VCC and GND pins must be individually decoupled per layout guidelines.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CEL / CER | Left/Right Chip Enable | Independent port activation; each port enters full standby (ISB3 ≤ 1.0 mA) when its CE = VIH |
| R/WL / R/WR | Left/Right Read/Write Control | Active-low write strobe; controls data direction on I/O0–I/O15 without requiring external direction logic |
| OEL / OER | Left/Right Output Enable | Tri-states I/O bus independently per port; enables mixed read/write concurrency (e.g., read port A while writing port B) |
| UBL / UBR, LBL / LBR | Upper/Lower Byte Select | Enables byte-level writes to 16-bit bus; critical for partial-word updates in protocol stack buffers |
| INTL / INTR | Left/Right Interrupt Flag Output | Open-collector compatible (per datasheet note: non-tri-stated push-pull); asserts on write to 3FFEH/3FFFH mailbox |
| BUSYL / BUSYR | Left/Right Busy Flag | Push-pull output (MASTER) or input (SLAVE); blocks conflicting writes during address contention; tBDD ≤ 30 ns guarantees deterministic resolution |
| M/S | Master/Slave Select | Configures BUSY pin function: HIGH = BUSY output (master), LOW = BUSY input (slave); enables daisy-chained arbitration in multi-device systems |
| A0L–A13L / A0R–A13R | Left/Right Address Inputs | 14-bit addressing per port (16K depth); no internal address latching - fully combinatorial access path |
| I/O0L–I/O15L / I/O0R–I/O15R | Left/Right Data I/O | Bidirectional 16-bit buses; support simultaneous 32-bit word access when cascaded as MASTER/SLAVE pair |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| True Dual-Port Architecture | Enables zero-wait-state concurrent access from two independent processors or DMA engines without external arbitration logic |
| Hardware Semaphore Logic | Eight dedicated flags accessible via A0–A2; eliminates software mutex overhead in real-time OS environments |
| Interrupt Mailbox Addresses | Fixed locations 3FFEH (left INTL) and 3FFFH (right INTR); provide atomic message-passing without polling or timer interrupts |
| Master/Slave Cascading | Supports 32-bit+ data bus expansion using M/S pin and BUSY chaining; maintains full speed without glue logic |
| Low-Power Standby Mode | ISB3 ≤ 1.0 mA (full standby, CMOS inputs); extends uptime in battery-backed industrial controllers |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-port SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY7C1362BV33-25ZXI | 3.3 V core supply; 25 ns access; 16K × 16; no built-in interrupt/mailbox logic | Requires external logic for interrupt generation; suited for 3.3 V systems where voltage translation is undesirable | Select when migrating to lower-voltage platforms and interrupt functionality is implemented in FPGA or MCU firmware |
| AS7C316000B-25JCIN | 5 V supply; 25 ns access; 16K × 16; no BUSY arbitration or semaphore logic; no interrupt flags | Lacks hardware arbitration - requires external priority encoder or software coordination for concurrent access | Select for cost-sensitive applications where dual-port concurrency is infrequent and deterministic latency is not required |

FAQ
What is the maximum guaranteed access time for the 70261S25PF8?
The 70261S25PF8 has a maximum access time of 25 ns for address access (tAA), chip enable access (tACE), and byte enable access (tABE), specified across both commercial (0°C to +70°C) and industrial (−40°C to +85°C) temperature ranges. This ensures deterministic timing in hard real-time systems where jitter must remain below 5 ns.
How does the BUSY arbitration logic work in the 70261S25PF8?
The 70261S25PF8 uses push-pull BUSY outputs (BUSYL/BUSYR) that assert when both ports attempt simultaneous access to the same memory location. When configured as MASTER (M/S = H), BUSY signals block the later-arriving write; as SLAVE (M/S = L), BUSY is an input that inhibits local writes. tBDD ≤ 30 ns guarantees valid data after BUSY deassertion.
Can the 70261S25PF8 be used in a 32-bit data bus configuration?
Yes - the 70261S25PF8 supports 32-bit expansion via MASTER/SLAVE cascading. One device is configured as MASTER (M/S = H) and another as SLAVE (M/S = L), with BUSY chaining and shared address/data routing. This preserves full 25 ns access speed without adding wait states or external glue logic.
What are the interrupt mailbox addresses for the 70261S25PF8?
The 70261S25PF8 uses fixed interrupt mailbox addresses: writing to address 3FFEH sets the left-port interrupt flag (INTL), and writing to 3FFFH sets the right-port flag (INTR). Clearing is performed by reading those same addresses. These locations are reserved for interrupt use only when the feature is enabled.
Does the 70261S25PF8 support byte-selectable writes?
Yes - the 70261S25PF8 provides independent upper-byte (UBL/UBR) and lower-byte (LBL/LBR) enables, allowing 8-bit writes to either half of the 16-bit data bus. This is essential for protocol stack buffers and partial register updates without read-modify-write cycles.
