Product details
Overview
IDT71321LA25PFGI8 from Integrated Device Technology (IDT) is a high-speed 2K × 8 dual-port static RAM with on-chip interrupt logic and BUSY arbitration, designed as a MASTER device for interprocessor communication. It features 25 ns max access time, 5 V ±10% TTL-compatible supply, industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), and battery-backed data retention down to 2 V. It is used in real-time embedded systems requiring concurrent read/write access from two independent processors or buses.
For engineers reviewing the IDT71321LA25PFGI8 datasheet, IDT71321LA25PFGI8 pinout, IDT71321LA25PFGI8 application, or IDT71321LA25PFGI8 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed low-power standby behavior (1 µA full standby), and precise interrupt timing (tINS ≤ 25 ns) - all specific to the LA-grade, 25 ns, PFGI8 (64-pin TQFP) variant.
Technical Context
The IDT71321LA25PFGI8 implements fully asynchronous dual-port operation with independent left/right address, control, and I/O buses. Its on-chip arbitration logic resolves port contention via BUSY flag generation based on chip enable and address match timing - not R/W state - ensuring deterministic write inhibition during simultaneous access to identical addresses.
As a MASTER device, it drives open-drain BUSYL/BUSYR outputs (requiring 270 Ω pull-ups) and generates INTL/INTR flags via dedicated mailbox addresses (7FEh/7FFh). The LA version supports 2 V battery backup with ≤100 µA retention current and includes CMOS-level standby modes enabling ultra-low ISB3 = 0.2 mA (typ.) at VCC = 5 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 2K × 8 (2048 words × 8 bits), fully random-access dual-port SRAM |
| Access Time (max) | 25 ns - guarantees worst-case read latency under industrial conditions (–40°C to +85°C, VCC = 4.5–5.5 V) |
| Supply Voltage | 5.0 V ±10% - single TTL-compatible rail; no auxiliary supplies required |
| Standby Current (ISB3) | 0.2 mA (typ.) - achieved when both CE pins > VCC − 0.2 V and all inputs at CMOS levels |
| Data Retention | 2.0 V minimum - enables battery backup operation with ≤1500 µA retention current (industrial grade) |
| Interrupt Timing (tINS) | ≤25 ns - maximum delay from valid write to 7FEh/7FFh until INTL/INTR assertion |

Pinout & Package
Package: 64-pin Thin Quad Flat Package (TQFP), JEDEC MO-159AC, body size 14 mm × 14 mm × 1.4 mm, exposed pad (thermal enhancement), RoHS-compliant matte tin finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0L–A10L | Left port address inputs | 11-bit address bus for left-side memory access (2K = 2¹¹) |
| A0R–A10R | Right port address inputs | 11-bit address bus for right-side memory access; fully independent of left port |
| I/O0L–I/O7L | Left port bidirectional data | 8-bit data bus; high-impedance when OEL = VIH or CEL = VIH |
| I/O0R–I/O7R | Right port bidirectional data | 8-bit data bus; high-impedance when OER = VIH or CER = VIH |
| CEL / CER | Chip enable (left/right) | Active-low enables respective port; controls power-down mode when high |
| OEL / OER | Output enable (left/right) | Active-low enables data output drivers; does not affect internal memory access |
| R/WL / R/WR | Read/write control (left/right) | Active-high = read, active-low = write; determines direction of I/O bus |
| BUSYL / BUSYR | BUSY flag (output only) | Open-drain outputs indicating port contention; require external 270 Ω pull-up resistors |
| INTL / INTR | Interrupt flag (output only) | Active-low interrupt flags set by opposite-port writes to 7FEh (INTL) or 7FFh (INTR) |
| VCC / GND | Power supply pins | Multiple VCC (pins 33, 47, 64) and GND (pins 34, 48, 63) for noise reduction and thermal management |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| On-chip port arbitration | Hardware-based BUSY generation resolves simultaneous same-address access without external logic |

Applications
| Real-Time Dual-Processor Communication | Redundant Control System Memory |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-port SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cypress CY7C024AV-25AXC | 2K × 16 organization, 25 ns, 3.3 V supply; no built-in BUSY arbitration or interrupt logic | Requires external logic for port coordination; unsuitable for direct replacement in interrupt-driven designs | Select only if 16-bit bus width and 3.3 V operation are mandatory; redesign needed for arbitration/interrupt functionality |
| IDT71421LA25PFGI8 | SLAVE counterpart: BUSY pins are inputs (not outputs); no on-chip arbitration logic; identical timing and package | Cannot operate standalone; must be paired with IDT71321LA25PFGI8 in MASTER/SLAVE configurations | Use only as expansion device for 16-bit+ systems; never a functional substitute for the MASTER IDT71321LA25PFGI8 |
Compared with CY7C024AV-25AXC and IDT71421LA25PFGI8, the IDT71321LA25PFGI8 uniquely integrates MASTER arbitration, interrupt mailbox addressing, and 2 V data retention - making it irreplaceable in deterministic, low-power, interprocessor communication architectures.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed maximum access time for IDT71321LA25PFGI8 over its full industrial temperature range?
The IDT71321LA25PFGI8 is specified for ≤25 ns maximum access time across –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature and 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply voltage. This value is production-tested per AC Electrical Characteristics Table 8a and applies to tAA, tACE, and tAOE parameters under industrial-grade conditions.
Does IDT71321LA25PFGI8 support true battery backup, and what is the minimum retention voltage?
Yes - the "LA" suffix denotes low-power battery backup capability. IDT71321LA25PFGI8 retains data at VCC = 2.0 V minimum, with ICCDR ≤ 1500 µA (commercial) or ≤ 4000 µA (industrial) at +25°C, as specified in Table 6. This enables operation from coin-cell or supercapacitor backup sources.
How does the BUSY arbitration logic function in IDT71321LA25PFGI8, and is external logic required?
IDT71321LA25PFGI8 implements on-chip BUSY arbitration triggered by chip enable (CEL/CER) and address match (A0–A10) - not R/W state. When both ports access the same address simultaneously, BUSYL/BUSYR go low (open-drain) to inhibit writes. No external logic is needed; only 270 Ω pull-up resistors are required per BUSY pin.
Can IDT71321LA25PFGI8 be used as a standalone dual-port RAM, or must it always operate with a SLAVE device?
IDT71321LA25PFGI8 functions fully as a standalone 8-bit dual-port SRAM. Its MASTER designation refers to its ability to drive BUSY outputs and coordinate width expansion with IDT71421 SLAVE devices - not a requirement. Standalone use is explicitly supported per Functional Description (page 16) and Truth Table I.
What are the interrupt mailbox addresses for IDT71321LA25PFGI8, and how are flags cleared?
IDT71321LA25PFGI8 uses fixed interrupt mailboxes: writing to address 7FEh (hex) asserts INTL; writing to 7FFh (hex) asserts INTR. Flags are cleared by reading the same address with OE enabled (e.g., CEL = OEL = VIL for INTL reset). This behavior is defined in Truth Table II and requires no additional control signals.
