Product details
Overview
71124S20YG8 from Renesas Electronics is a 128K × 8-bit (1 Mbit) high-speed CMOS static RAM with JEDEC center-power/ground pinout, 20 ns read/write cycle time, TTL-compatible I/O, and single 5 V supply operation - used in embedded controllers, industrial PLCs, and legacy instrumentation requiring fast, asynchronous, non-refresh memory.
For engineers reviewing the 71124S20YG8 datasheet, 71124S20YG8 pinout, 71124S20YG8 application, or 71124S20YG8 equivalent, key selection criteria include access time (tAA ≤ 20 ns), standby current (ISB1 = 10 mA), SOJ-32 package compatibility, and commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C) support for legacy system upgrades.
Technical Context
The 71124S20YG8 implements fully static asynchronous logic with no clocks or refresh required. Its architecture features independent Chip Select (CS) and Output Enable (OE) control, enabling precise output gating and multi-chip memory banking.
It uses center-power/ground pinout (VCC on pins 5 & 24, GND on pins 13 & 20) to minimize simultaneous switching noise. Bidirectional I/O lines (I/O0–I/O7) operate at TTL voltage levels with 6 ns OE-to-valid delay and 8 ns WE-controlled write pulse width.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 128K × 8-bit (1,048,576-bit total); supports byte-wide data bus interfacing without external demultiplexing. |
| Access Time (tAA) | 20 ns max; determines minimum CPU wait-state insertion for direct SRAM interface at ≤50 MHz bus timing. |
| Read Cycle Time (tRC) | 20 ns max; defines shortest interval between successive read operations without data corruption. |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V; compatible with standard 5 V TTL/CMOS logic rails and legacy power domains. |
| Standby Current (ISB1) | 10 mA max at CMOS-level deselect (CS > VHC); enables low-power hold mode during processor sleep. |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to +70°C; qualified for commercial-grade industrial control panels and test equipment environments. |
| I/O Compatibility | TTL-compatible inputs and outputs; eliminates level-shifter requirements when interfacing with 74LS/74F logic or microcontrollers. |
Pinout & Package
71124S20YG8 is housed in a 32-pin 400-mil Plastic SOJ (PBG32) package with JEDEC-standard center-power/ground layout - VCC on pins 5 and 24, GND on pins 13 and 20 - reducing ground bounce and improving signal integrity in dense PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A16 | Address Inputs | 17-bit address bus supporting full 128K address space; A16 enables 1-Mbit addressing without external decoding. |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Bus | 8-bit TTL-compatible data path; direction controlled by CS/OE/WE states - no external transceivers needed. |
| CS | Chip Select | Active-low enable; places device in active or standby (ISB/ISB1) modes depending on logic level and timing. |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low control of output drivers; allows shared bus operation with other peripherals without contention. |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write strobe; initiates write cycle when CS is low - supports both WE- and CS-controlled timing modes. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| JEDEC Center-Power/Ground Pinout | Reduces simultaneous switching noise by 30–40% vs. conventional corner-VCC layouts; improves signal integrity in mixed-signal systems. |
| Asynchronous Static Operation | No clocks, no refresh cycles required - simplifies timing design and eliminates hidden latency from DRAM refresh overhead. |
| Dual Standby Modes (ISB & ISB1) | ISB = 40 mA (TTL-level deselect), ISB1 = 10 mA (CMOS-level deselect); enables fine-grained power management in battery-backed systems. |
| 6 ns OE-to-Valid Delay | Enables tight timing margins in high-speed microprocessor interfaces (e.g., Intel 80C188, Motorola 68EC000) without added wait states. |
| Single 5 V Supply | Eliminates need for dual-rail (±5 V or 5 V/3.3 V) power design; reduces BOM count and layout complexity in legacy designs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed asynchronous SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY62128EV30LL-45ZSXIT | 128K × 8, 45 ns speed grade, 3.3 V supply, TSOP-32 package; lower power but slower and incompatible voltage rail. | Requires level translation or redesign for 5 V systems; suitable only if migrating to 3.3 V architecture with relaxed timing. | Select only when upgrading to modern low-voltage platforms - not a drop-in replacement for 71124S20YG8. |
| AS6C1008-20ZIN | 128K × 8, 20 ns speed, 5 V supply, SOJ-32 package; identical timing and pinout, but manufactured by Alliance Memory. | Direct functional and mechanical replacement; validated for same commercial temperature range and JEDEC pinout. | Preferred alternative when 71124S20YG8 is unavailable - requires no PCB or firmware changes. |
Compared with CY62128EV30LL-45ZSXIT and AS6C1008-20ZIN, the 71124S20YG8 offers native 5 V compatibility and legacy qualification for industrial control systems, while AS6C1008-20ZIN provides identical form-fit-function replacement, and CY62128EV30LL-45ZSXIT necessitates voltage and timing redesign.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the 71124S20YG8?
The 71124S20YG8 does not use a clock; it is an asynchronous SRAM. Its performance is defined by timing parameters - notably 20 ns read cycle time (tRC) and 20 ns address access time (tAA). This supports reliable interface with microprocessors running at up to ~50 MHz bus frequencies when configured with zero wait states, assuming proper setup/hold timing compliance.
Does the 71124S20YG8 require refresh circuitry or external clocks?
No, the 71124S20YG8 is a fully static RAM and requires no refresh cycles or external clocks. Its internal circuitry maintains data indefinitely as long as VCC is applied and CS remains asserted during reads/writes. This eliminates refresh overhead and simplifies system timing design compared to DRAM solutions.
What is the meaning of "YG" and "8" in the part number 71124S20YG8?
In 71124S20YG8, "YG" denotes green (lead-free) packaging and tape-and-reel delivery, while "8" indicates the SOJ-32 package variant with standard lead finish. The full ordering code confirms commercial temperature grade (0°C to +70°C), 20 ns speed, and PBG32 package per Renesas' official ordering information table.
Can the 71124S20YG8 be used in industrial temperature applications?
No - the 71124S20YG8 is specified only for commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C). Industrial-grade variants exist (e.g., 71124S20YGI8), but the "YG8" suffix explicitly identifies the commercial-grade version. Using it outside its rated temperature range may result in timing violations or data retention failure.
How does the center-power/ground pinout improve system performance in the 71124S20YG8?
The 71124S20YG8 places VCC on pins 5 and 24 and GND on pins 13 and 20 - symmetrically centered in the SOJ-32 package. This layout minimizes ground loop inductance and reduces simultaneous switching output (SSO) noise by balancing return current paths, directly improving signal integrity and noise margin in high-density PCBs.
