Product details
Overview
71256L35YGI8 from Renesas Electronics is a 256K (32K × 8-bit) low-power CMOS static RAM with 35ns maximum access time, industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), 5V ±10% supply, and 2V data retention capability. It operates in 28-pin 300-mil SOJ package and supports TTL-compatible I/O for embedded control and instrumentation memory buffering.
For engineers reviewing the 71256L35YGI8 datasheet, 71256L35YGI8 pinout, 71256L35YGI8 application, or 71256L35YGI8 equivalent, key selection criteria include standby current (1.5mA max), data retention voltage (2.0V min), and industrial-grade reliability under sustained thermal stress.
Technical Context
This SRAM implements asynchronous read/write operation with independent chip select (CS), output enable (OE), and write enable (WE) controls. Its dual standby modes-TTL-level (ISB = 3mA) and CMOS-level (ISB1 = 1.5mA)-enable dynamic power management in battery-backed systems.
The device uses high-reliability CMOS fabrication and supports full data retention at 2V while maintaining compatibility with standard 5V TTL logic levels on all inputs and outputs. Pin-compatible variants exist across speed grades (20/25/35/45ns) and temperature grades (commercial/industrial/military), but 71256L35YGI8 is specifically rated for industrial use in SOJ packaging.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 256Kbit (32K × 8-bit) - provides byte-wide data bus interface without external multiplexing |
| Access Time (tAA) | 35ns max - enables integration into 28MHz bus systems with sufficient timing margin |
| Supply Voltage | 5V ±10% - compatible with standard logic rails and eliminates need for dedicated LDO regulation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar static RAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY62256LN-35ZSXI | 32K × 8-bit, 35ns, SOIC-28, –40°C to +85°C, 5V, ISB = 1μA (typ.) | No battery backup; lower standby current but no 2V retention capability | Preferred when ultra-low ISB dominates over backup functionality and SOIC footprint is acceptable |
| AS6C4008-35TIN | 512K × 8-bit, 35ns, TSSOP-28, –40°C to +85°C, 5V, ISB = 2μA (typ.) | Double density, different pinout (address bits A15–A16 added), no data retention mode | Selected when higher capacity is needed and board redesign for pinout change is feasible |
Compared with 71256L35YGI8, CY62256LN-35ZSXI offers significantly lower standby current but lacks battery backup; AS6C4008-35TIN doubles memory size but requires PCB layout revision due to incompatible pin mapping and missing 2V retention-making 71256L35YGI8 optimal for drop-in industrial replacement with retention assurance.

FAQ
What is the minimum supply voltage required for data retention in 71256L35YGI8?
The 71256L35YGI8 guarantees data retention down to 2.0V (VDR), as specified in Table 11 of the Renesas datasheet. At this voltage, typical retention current is 120μA, enabling operation from a single lithium-thionyl chloride cell or regulated 2.0–2.4V backup source without additional circuitry. This specification applies across the full industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C).
Does 71256L35YGI8 support true TTL input thresholds?
Yes, 71256L35YGI8 supports TTL-compatible inputs with VIH = 2.2V (min) and VIL = 0.8V (max) at VCC = 5.0V, per Table 6 of the datasheet. This allows direct interfacing with legacy 74LS and modern 74HC logic families without level-shifting components, simplifying design and improving noise immunity in mixed-voltage systems.
What is the difference between ISB and ISB1 standby current in 71256L35YGI8?
ISB (20mA max) activates when CS exceeds VIH (2.2V), placing the device in TTL-level standby; ISB1 (1.5mA max) engages when CS exceeds VHC (VCC – 0.2V), entering deeper CMOS-level standby. For 71256L35YGI8 at VCC = 5.5V, VHC = 5.3V-so driving CS to ≥5.3V yields >90% power reduction versus ISB mode, critical for battery longevity.
Is 71256L35YGI8 pin-compatible with other 71256 speed grades in SOJ package?
Yes, all 71256L variants in PJG28 (28-pin 300-mil SOJ) package-including 71256L20YG8, 71256L25YGI8, and 71256L35YGI8-share identical pinout, footprint, and signal assignments. Speed grade changes require only firmware timing adjustment; no PCB modification is needed for upgrade/downgrade within the L-series SOJ family.
What packaging and marking details confirm authenticity of 71256L35YGI8?
Authentic 71256L35YGI8 units are supplied in tape-and-reel (8mm carrier tape, 1000 pcs/reel) with top-side marking "71256L35YGI8" and Renesas logo. The "YGI8" suffix denotes industrial temperature grade (Y), green compliance (G), SOJ package (I), and tape-and-reel packaging (8)-matching Renesas ordering code conventions in Document 2946, page 10.
