Product details
Overview
IDT71321SA55TFI8 from Integrated Device Technology is a high-speed 2K × 8 dual-port static RAM with interrupt logic and on-chip arbitration, designed as a MASTER device for interprocessor communication. It delivers 55 ns max read/write cycle time, operates at 5V ±10%, supports industrial temperature (–40°C to +85°C), and features open-drain BUSY/INT outputs requiring 270Ω pull-up resistors - used in real-time embedded control systems with concurrent CPU/DSP access.
For engineers reviewing the IDT71321SA55TFI8 datasheet, IDT71321SA55TFI8 pinout, IDT71321SA55TFI8 application, or IDT71321SA55TFI8 equivalent, key selection criteria include its master-mode arbitration logic, dual-interrupt flag support (INTL/INTR), 52-pin STQFP package with verified pin mapping, and compatibility with IDT71421SLAVE devices in 16-bit+ memory expansion.
Technical Context
The IDT71321SA55TFI8 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 (CEL/CER) and address match timing - not R/W state - ensuring deterministic write inhibition during simultaneous access to identical addresses.
Interrupt functionality uses dedicated mailbox addresses (7FEh for INTL, 7FFh for INTR) with set/reset behavior defined by port-specific write patterns. The device supports battery backup data retention only in LA variants; this SA version provides 55 ns timing with 325 mW typical active power and 5 mW standby power at industrial temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 2K × 8 (16,384 bits), dual-port SRAM with independent left/right access paths |
| Access Time (max) | 55 ns - defines minimum read/write cycle time for synchronous system timing budgeting |
| Supply Voltage | 5.0 V ±10% - requires single TTL-compatible rail; all VCC pins must be connected |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded control and motor drive applications |
| Active Current (typ) | 110 mA - translates to ~325 mW typical power consumption during full-port operation |
| Standby Current (typ) | 30 mA - enables low-power idle mode when both CE inputs are high |
| BUSY/INT Output Type | Open-drain - mandates external 270Ω pull-up resistor per signal for proper logic level translation |
Pinout & Package
Package: 52-pin STQFP (PPG52), 10 mm × 10 mm × 1.4 mm body, lead-free and RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0L–A10L | Left port address inputs | 11-bit address bus for left-side memory access (000h–7FFh) |
| A0R–A10R | Right port address inputs | 11-bit address bus for right-side memory access (000h–7FFh) |
| I/O0L–I/O7L | Left port bidirectional data | 8-bit data path; high-impedance when OEL = VIH or CEL = VIH |
| I/O0R–I/O7R | Right port bidirectional data | 8-bit data path; 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 write path |
| R/WL / R/WR | Read/write control (left/right) | High = read, low = write; determines direction of I/O bus transfer |
| INTL / INTR | Interrupt flags (left/right) | Open-drain outputs asserted when opposite port writes to 7FEh/7FFh |
| BUSYL / BUSYR | Busy flags (left/right) | Open-drain outputs indicating port contention; require 270Ω pull-up |
| VCC / GND | Power supply pins | Multiple VCC/GND pins must all be connected to maintain signal integrity and thermal stability |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Master-mode arbitration logic | Resolves simultaneous left/right port access to same address without external logic, using BUSY assertion based on CE/address timing |
| Dual interrupt mailbox architecture | Enables hardware-synchronized interprocessor messaging via dedicated 7FEh (INTL) and 7FFh (INTR) locations |
| Asynchronous dual-port operation | Permits independent, non-synchronized reads/writes from either port - critical for real-time CPU/DSP co-processing |
| Low-power standby modes | Supports four distinct standby states (ISB1–ISB4) with sub-1 mA full-standby current under CMOS-level inputs |
| 52-pin STQFP packaging | Enables compact PCB layout with verified thermal performance and industrial-grade reliability at –40°C to +85°C |

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 CY7C1371DV33-55AC | 3.3V core, 55 ns access, QDR interface; no native BUSY arbitration or interrupt mailboxes | Requires external logic for contention resolution; suited for high-bandwidth streaming, not interprocessor messaging | Select when migrating to 3.3V systems and prioritizing bandwidth over hardware arbitration |
| IDT71421SA55TFI8 | SLAVE-only variant; BUSY pins are inputs (not outputs); no on-chip arbitration logic | Must be paired with IDT71321 as MASTER; used only in width-expanded 16-bit+ configurations | Choose only as companion to IDT71321SA55TFI8 in multi-chip memory arrays |

FAQ
What is the function of BUSYL and BUSYR on the IDT71321SA55TFI8?
BUSYL and BUSYR are open-drain outputs on the IDT71321SA55TFI8 that indicate port contention when both left and right ports attempt simultaneous access to the same memory address. They require external 270Ω pull-up resistors and assert low to inhibit writes on the contending port - a core feature of its MASTER arbitration logic.
Can the IDT71321SA55TFI8 operate with only one port enabled?
Yes. The IDT71321SA55TFI8 supports independent port operation: setting CEL = VIH disables the left port (entering standby), while CER = VIH disables the right port. Each port maintains full 2K × 8 access when enabled, and standby current drops to ≤30 mA for single-port active use.
Does the IDT71321SA55TFI8 support battery backup data retention?
No. Battery backup data retention (down to 2V) is exclusive to LA variants like IDT71321LA55TFI8. The IDT71321SA55TFI8 is a standard-power SA version with 5V-only operation and no data retention capability below VCC min (4.5V).
How are the interrupt flags INTL and INTR triggered on the IDT71321SA55TFI8?
INTL is asserted when the right port writes to address 7FEh; INTR is asserted when the left port writes to 7FFh. Both flags are cleared by the respective port reading those same addresses with OE and CE active - enabling hardware-synchronized mailbox messaging without software polling.
What package type is used for the IDT71321SA55TFI8?
The IDT71321SA55TFI8 uses a 52-pin STQFP (PPG52) package measuring 10 mm × 10 mm × 1.4 mm. This surface-mount package is RoHS-compliant, optimized for industrial thermal performance, and matches the pinout shown in Figure 3a of the official datasheet DSC-2691/17.
