Product details
Overview
71256S25TDB from Renesas is a 256K (32K × 8-bit) high-speed CMOS static RAM with 25ns maximum address access time, TTL-compatible I/O, and military-grade reliability compliant to MIL-STD-883 Class B. It operates across –55°C to +125°C, draws 135mA dynamic current at VCC = 5.5V, and supports battery backup data retention at 2V for low-power hold mode. It serves as main memory or buffer in avionics, radar processors, and hardened embedded controllers.
For engineers reviewing the 71256S25TDB datasheet, 71256S25TDB pinout, 71256S25TDB application, or 71256S25TDB equivalent, key selection criteria include military temperature compliance, 28-pin ceramic DIP (300-mil) package, 25ns read cycle timing, standby current of 20mA (TTL-level CS), and direct TTL logic interface without level-shifting.
Technical Context
The 71256S25TDB implements a full CMOS SRAM architecture with asynchronous parallel interface, single 5V ±10% supply, and dual standby modes: TTL-level chip select (ISB = 20mA) and CMOS-level full standby (ISB1 = 20mA). Its address decoder drives a 262,144-bit memory array with on-chip I/O control enabling true bidirectional data flow via I/O0–I/O7.
Timing is governed by three independent control signals - CS, WE, and OE - supporting both CS-controlled and WE-controlled write cycles. Read operations require CS and OE low with WE high; write operations require CS and WE low, with OE irrelevant. Output enable/disable and chip select transitions define critical timing windows including tCLZ (5ns), tCHZ (11ns), and tOHZ (10ns).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 32K × 8-bit (262,144 bits), byte-wide parallel interface |
| Access Time (tAA) | 25ns max - guarantees data valid within 25ns after address/CS stabilization for real-time signal buffering |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5V–5.5V - compatible with standard 5V TTL/CMOS systems without regulation overhead |
| Operating Temperature | –55°C to +125°C - qualified for airborne, missile, and space-qualified platforms per MIL-STD-883 Class B |
| Dynamic Current (ICC) | 135mA max at fMAX - defines worst-case power rail sizing and thermal design margin |
| Standby Current (ISB) | 20mA max with CS > VIH - enables low-power sleep states during processor idle cycles |
| Input/Output Compatibility | TTL input thresholds (VIL ≤ 0.8V, VIH ≥ 2.2V); output drive ±8mA - interoperable with legacy 5V logic families |
Pinout & Package
71256S25TDB is housed in a 28-pin ceramic dual in-line package (CDIP) with 300-mil body width (SD28), hermetically sealed for moisture resistance and long-term reliability in harsh environments.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A14 | Address Inputs | 15-bit address bus accepting 0–32,767 row/column selects; no internal latching - requires stable address before CS/WE assertion |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Bus | 8-bit multiplexed input/output port; direction controlled by WE/CS/OE state - eliminates need for external transceivers |
| CS | Chip Select | Active-low enable; forces device into standby when high - primary power-gating signal for system-level energy management |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write strobe; combined with CS low initiates write cycle - decouples write timing from address setup |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low output gate; allows read data to appear on I/O pins only when asserted - prevents bus contention during writes |
| VCC | Power Supply | +5V ±10% supply pin - must be decoupled locally with ≤100nF ceramic capacitor to sustain 135mA transient current |
| GND | Ground Reference | Signal and power return path - requires low-inductance connection to minimize noise coupling into memory array |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MIL-STD-883 Class B qualification | Ensures operation under shock, vibration, temperature cycling, and radiation exposure required for defense electronics |
| 25ns access time at military temperature range | Enables deterministic real-time response in radar pulse processing and flight control loops without wait states |
| Dual standby modes (TTL/CMOS CS levels) | Reduces system power by >90% during idle periods while maintaining fast wake-up latency (<10ns) |
| Hermetic 28-pin ceramic DIP (300-mil) | Provides long-term reliability in high-humidity, high-altitude, or corrosive environments where plastic packages fail |
| TTL-compatible I/O with 8mA drive | Interoperates directly with legacy FPGAs, microcontrollers, and ASICs without level translators or bus buffers |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-reliability SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY62256BNLL-55ZSXI | 55ns access, 32K×8, industrial temp only (–40°C to +85°C), SOIC-28 package | Lacks MIL-STD-883 qualification and hermetic sealing; unsuitable for flight-critical hardware | Select only for cost-sensitive ground-based test equipment where military specs are not mandated. |
| AS6C4008-55TIN | 55ns access, 512K×8, commercial temp (0°C to +70°C), TSOP-32 package | Higher density but slower speed, no military qualification, plastic package limits humidity resistance | Use when board space is constrained and extended temperature operation is unnecessary. |
Compared with CY62256BNLL-55ZSXI and AS6C4008-55TIN, the 71256S25TDB delivers faster 25ns timing, guaranteed operation down to –55°C, and MIL-STD-883 Class B reliability - making it the sole choice for deployed airborne, missile, and space systems requiring deterministic performance under environmental stress.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the 71256S25TDB?
The 71256S25TDB is rated for operation from –55°C to +125°C and is fully qualified to MIL-STD-883 Class B for thermal cycling, mechanical shock, and vibration. This range is validated across all electrical parameters including 25ns access time, 135mA dynamic current, and 20mA standby current - making it suitable for engine-mounted or exoatmospheric deployments where ambient extremes exceed commercial or industrial grades.
Does the 71256S25TDB support battery backup data retention?
No - the 71256S25TDB is the standard-power variant ('S') and does not include battery backup data retention capability. That feature is exclusive to the 'L' version (e.g., 71256L25TDB), which consumes ≤3μA in full standby at 2V. The 71256S25TDB enters low-power standby (20mA) when CS is high but requires continuous 5V supply to retain data.
Is the 71256S25TDB pin-compatible with other 28-pin SRAMs like the 62256 series?
Yes - the 71256S25TDB uses the industry-standard 28-pin parallel SRAM pinout: A0–A14 on pins 1–12 and 23–24; I/O0–I/O7 on pins 13–20; CS on pin 21; WE on pin 22; OE on pin 23; VCC on pin 24; GND on pin 12. This matches the 62256, HM62256, and AS6C2016 footprints, enabling drop-in replacement where speed and temperature requirements align.
What package type does the 71256S25TDB use, and is it RoHS-compliant?
The 71256S25TDB is supplied in a 28-pin ceramic DIP (CDIP) with 300-mil body width (SD28 code), hermetically sealed for long-term reliability. Per Renesas' ordering information, "Green parts available" indicates lead-free, RoHS-compliant construction - confirmed by the "Y" suffix option in related part numbers and compliance with JEDEC J-STD-609A marking standards.
Can the 71256S25TDB operate with a 3.3V supply?
No - the 71256S25TDB is specified only for 5V ±10% (4.5V–5.5V) operation. Its TTL-compatible inputs require VIH ≥ 2.2V and VIL ≤ 0.8V, and its output drive strength (±8mA) is characterized at VCC = 5.0V. Applying 3.3V violates the Absolute Maximum Rating for VTERM (–0.5V to +7.0V) but will not meet functional specifications for access time, current draw, or noise margins.
