Product details
Overview
70V9079S12PF8 from IDT (now Renesas) is a high-speed 32K × 8-bit synchronous dual-port static RAM with true dual-ported memory cells enabling simultaneous read/write access to the same address from left and right ports, 12ns max clock-to-data access in pipelined mode, LVTTL-compatible 3.3V ±0.3V operation, and integrated address counter for burst applications - used in real-time DSP co-processing and FPGA-based communication buffers.
For engineers reviewing the 70V9079S12PF8 datasheet, 70V9079S12PF8 pinout, 70V9079S12PF8 application, or 70V9079S12PF8 equivalent, key selection criteria include pipelined vs. flow-through output timing, dual-port depth expansion capability via CE0/CE1 control, industrial temperature support (–40°C to +85°C), and low-power standby current of 0.4mA (typ.) in full CMOS-level standby mode.
Technical Context
This device implements fully synchronous dual-port architecture with independent clock inputs (CLKL/CLKR), registered address/data/control inputs, and self-timed write logic decoupled from clock edge timing. It supports two distinct output modes - flow-through (FT/PIPE = VIL) and pipelined (FT/PIPE = VIH) - each with dedicated AC timing parameters including tCD1 (≤25ns) and tCD2 (≤12ns) respectively.
The integrated address counter (enabled via CNTENL/CNTENR) allows automatic address increment on rising clock edges without external sequencing logic, while asynchronous OE and ADS inputs provide flexible bus interfacing. Dual chip enables (CE0X/CE1X per port) enable seamless depth expansion without additional glue logic.

Pinout & Package
70V9079S12PF8 is housed in a 100-pin Thin Quad Flatpack (TQFP) package with exposed thermal pad (not electrically connected). Pin assignments follow JEDEC MO-140AC standard; A15R and A15L are no-connect (NC) pins per datasheet Note 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CLKL / CLKR | Port-specific clock input | Rising-edge triggered; clocks all registers (address, data, control) independently per port |
| CE0L/CE1L, CE0R/CE1R | Dual chip enable pair per port | CE0X = VIL & CE1X = VIH enables port; enables depth expansion without external logic |
| R/WL / R/WR | Read/write direction control | Synchronous active-low write enable; determines data flow direction on I/O bus |
| OEL / OER | Asynchronous output enable | Independent per port; controls I/O bus tristate without affecting internal timing |
| ADSL / ADSR | Address strobe | Loads external address into port register on rising clock edge; enables burst addressing |
| CNTRSTL / CNTRSTR | Counter reset | Resets internal address counter to A0 on next clock edge; no dead cycle required |
| CNTENL / CNTENR | Counter enable | Enables automatic address increment on rising clock; supports sequential burst reads/writes |
| FT/PIPEL / FT/PIPER | Output mode select | VIL = flow-through (0-cycle latency); VIH = pipelined (1-cycle latency, faster cycle time) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| True dual-port memory cells | Enables concurrent read and write to identical memory locations - critical for inter-processor communication and FIFO buffering |
| Self-timed write pulse | Decouples write completion from clock edge timing, enabling minimum cycle time regardless of clock skew |
| Dual chip enables per port | Supports depth expansion of multiple devices using only address MSBs - eliminates need for external decode logic |
| Integrated address counter | Reduces host processor overhead in burst transfers by auto-incrementing address on each clock cycle |
| Low-power standby modes | Four distinct standby states (ISB1–ISB4) allow fine-grained power management per port activity level |
Applications
| Telecom Line Card Buffering | FPGA-DSP Co-Processing Interface |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous dual-port SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY7C028V-15AXC | 15ns max tCD2 (vs. 12ns), 5V-tolerant I/O, no integrated address counter | Requires external counter logic for burst mode; suited for legacy 5V systems | Select if 5V interface compatibility is mandatory and 3ns timing margin is acceptable |
| AS7C33256P-12JIN | 12ns tCD2 but asynchronous interface, no pipelined mode, no dual CE per port | Lacks synchronous dual-port features - requires external arbitration for concurrent access | Choose only for cost-sensitive non-concurrent applications where timing determinism is not required |
Compared with CY7C028V-15AXC and AS7C33256P-12JIN, the 70V9079S12PF8 delivers superior deterministic latency (12ns pipelined), built-in burst addressing, and industrial-grade power efficiency - making it optimal for tightly coupled real-time systems requiring zero-wait-state dual-processor memory sharing.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the 70V9079S12PF8 in pipelined output mode?
The 70V9079S12PF8 supports up to 83MHz operation in pipelined output mode, corresponding to a 12ns clock cycle time (tCYC2). This is validated across the full industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) with 3.3V ±0.3V supply. The device achieves this frequency through registered inputs and self-timed write logic, ensuring setup/hold margins are met without external timing constraints. The 70V9079S12PF8 datasheet specifies tCH2/tCL2 minima of 8ns each to maintain signal integrity at this rate.
Does the 70V9079S12PF8 support true simultaneous read-write access to the same memory location?
Yes, the 70V9079S12PF8 uses true dual-ported memory cells that allow independent, concurrent read and write operations to the exact same address from the left and right ports. This capability is fundamental to its architecture and is explicitly confirmed in the Functional Block Diagram and Features section of the datasheet. No arbitration or conflict resolution logic is required - the 70V9079S12PF8 guarantees atomic access with deterministic timing for both ports.
How does the address counter function in the 70V9079S12PF8, and what signals control it?
The 70V9079S12PF8 integrates a synchronous address counter per port controlled by CNTENX (counter enable) and CNTRSTX (counter reset) inputs. When CNTENX = VIL on the rising edge of CLKX, the internal address increments automatically - even if ADSX = VIH. CNTRSTX = VIL resets the counter to A0 on the next clock edge. The 70V9079S12PF8 datasheet confirms this behavior in Truth Table II and Figure 3750 drw 14–17, with no dead cycles during reset.
What power-saving modes does the 70V9079S12PF8 offer, and how low is standby current?
The 70V9079S12PF8 provides four standby modes: ISB1 (both ports TTL-disabled, 40mA typ.), ISB2 (one port active, 100mA typ.), ISB3 (full CMOS-level standby, 0.4mA typ.), and ISB4 (one port CMOS-standby, 90mA typ.). The lowest power state - ISB3 - draws just 0.4mA typical with both ports fully disabled and all inputs held at valid CMOS levels (VIL < 0.2V or VIH > VDD − 0.2V), as specified in Table 3750 tbl 09b for the 'L' speed grade matching 70V9079S12PF8.
Is the 70V9079S12PF8 pin-compatible with other members of the IDT70V9089/79 family?
Yes, the 70V9079S12PF8 shares identical pinout and package (100-pin TQFP) with all IDT70V9089/79 family variants, including 70V9089S12PF8. Key pin equivalences include NC status for A15R/A15L (per datasheet Note 1), identical placement of dual CE/FT/PIPE/OE/ADS/CNTEN/CNTRST signals, and consistent power/ground distribution. This allows direct substitution within the same speed/temperature grade without PCB modification.
