Product details
Overview
70V24S20PF from Integrated Device Technology (IDT) is a high-speed 4K x 16 true dual-port static RAM with independent left/right asynchronous ports, 20 ns maximum access time (commercial/industrial), 3.3 V ±0.3 V single supply, and 84-pin PLCC package. It enables simultaneous read/write access to shared memory in real-time inter-processor communication systems such as telecom line cards and industrial PLCs.
For engineers reviewing the 70V24S20PF datasheet, 70V24S20PF pinout, 70V24S20PF application, or 70V24S20PF equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-port arbitration logic, on-chip semaphore support, BUSY/INT flag signaling, byte-select control for multiplexed bus compatibility, and industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) operation.
Technical Context
The 70V24S20PF implements fully asynchronous dual-port architecture with separate address, control, and I/O buses per port-enabling concurrent, collision-free access without external arbitration logic. Its on-chip hardware semaphore logic supports eight shared flags addressed via A0–A2, with dedicated SEM, INT, and BUSY signals for inter-port coordination.
It uses CMOS high-performance technology and features automatic power-down via CE control, delivering 400 mW typical active power and 660 µW typical standby power. The device supports MASTER/SLAVE cascading for 32-bit+ data width expansion using M/S pin configuration and BUSY flag handshaking.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
70V24S20PF is housed in an 84-pin Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC) package with 1.15 in × 1.15 in footprint and 0.17 in height. Pin 1 is marked by corner notch; all VDD pins require local 3.3 V decoupling, and all VSS pins must be connected to ground.

| LBL / LBR | Lower byte select (left/right) | Enables lower 8 bits (I/O0–I/O7); enables 8-bit peripheral interfacing |
| SEML / SEMR | Semaphore enable (left/right) | Activates on-chip semaphore register access (A0–A2 addressable) |
| INTL / INTR | Interrupt flag (left/right) | Open-drain push-pull output signals inter-port event completion |
| BUSYL / BUSYR | Busy flag (left/right) | Push-pull output indicates port contention during simultaneous same-address access |
| M/S | Master/Slave select | VIL = Slave (BUSY input); VIH = Master (BUSY output) - enables daisy-chained arbitration |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-port SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY7C024AV-20AXC | 4K x 16, 20 ns, 3.3 V, 84-pin PLCC - identical speed/package but Cypress implementation lacks integrated BUSY arbitration logic | Requires external logic for port contention detection; not drop-in for BUSY-driven handshake protocols | Select only if existing design already implements external arbitration or uses polling-based synchronization |
| IDT70V25S20PF | 4K x 16, 20 ns, 3.3 V, 100-pin TQFP - same family, higher pin count, includes A12 address line and expanded I/O drive strength | Not pin-compatible; requires PCB redesign; suited for 32-bit bus expansion via MASTER/SLAVE mode | Choose when system demands wider data path or needs A12 for future memory mapping scalability |
Compared with CY7C024AV-20AXC, the 70V24S20PF provides built-in BUSY arbitration and semaphore logic - reducing BOM count and improving determinism. Versus IDT70V25S20PF, it offers identical functionality in a smaller 84-pin PLCC footprint, simplifying layout in space-constrained industrial modules.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range supported by the 70V24S20PF?
The 70V24S20PF is rated for industrial temperature operation from -40°C to +85°C. This specification is validated per the manufacturer's DC and AC electrical characteristics tables under the "70V25/24X20" speed grade column, confirming full functionality including 20 ns access time and 660 µW standby current across the entire range.
Does the 70V24S20PF support true simultaneous read operations on both ports to the same memory location?
Yes, the 70V24S20PF implements true dual-port SRAM cells that allow simultaneous reads from both left and right ports to the same address without contention or data corruption. This behavior is explicitly stated in the Features section and confirmed by the functional block diagram showing independent I/O control paths per port.
How does the BUSY flag operate in MASTER/SLAVE configurations with the 70V24S20PF?
In MASTER/SLAVE mode, the 70V24S20PF uses the M/S pin to configure BUSY behavior: when M/S = VIH, BUSY is an output indicating local port contention; when M/S = VIL, BUSY is an input accepting the master's BUSY signal. This enables daisy-chained arbitration without external logic, as documented in Note 2 of the Pin Configurations section.
What is the function of the SEM pin on the 70V24S20PF, and how is it used?
The SEM pin (Semaphore Enable) activates on-chip hardware semaphore registers. When SEM = VIL and CE = VIH (or UB & LB = VIH), the device enters semaphore mode - allowing eight flags to be written via I/O0 and read across all I/O lines (I/O0–I/O15), with addressing via A0–A2. This is detailed in Truth Table II and the Semaphore Read/Write Control description.
Is the 70V24S20PF pin-compatible with other members of the IDT70V24/25 family, such as the 70V25S20PF?
No, the 70V24S20PF is not pin-compatible with the 70V25S20PF. The 70V24S20PF uses an 84-pin PLCC package with A0–A11 addressing and NC on A12, while the 70V25S20PF uses a 100-pin TQFP package with full A0–A12 addressing and different pin assignments for I/O and control signals, as shown in Figures 5 and 6 of the datasheet.
