Product details
Overview
IDT7132SA55C from Integrated Device Technology (IDT) is a high-speed 2K × 8 dual-port static RAM configured as a MASTER device with on-chip arbitration logic, BUSY output flag, and 55 ns maximum read/write cycle time. It operates at 5V ±10%, supports independent asynchronous access on left/right ports, and enables 16-bit-or-wider memory expansion when paired with IDT7142 SLAVE devices in real-time embedded control systems.
For engineers reviewing the IDT7132SA55C datasheet, IDT7132SA55C pinout, IDT7132SA55C application, or IDT7132SA55C equivalent, key selection criteria include its 55 ns tRC timing, open-drain BUSY outputs requiring 270 Ω pull-up resistors, industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), and compatibility with 48-pin DIP/LCC/Flatpack packages for legacy board designs.
Technical Context
The IDT7132SA55C implements hardware-based port arbitration using address and chip-enable inputs to assert BUSYL/BUSYR outputs-open-drain signals that stall conflicting writes before data corruption occurs. Its dual independent ports share a single 2K × 8 memory array but maintain separate control, address, and I/O buses.
It features automatic power-down via CE-driven standby modes (ISB1–ISB4), TTL-compatible signaling, and CMOS fabrication enabling typical active power of 325 mW and standby as low as 1 mW (LA variant). The SA suffix denotes standard-power operation without battery backup retention.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 2K × 8 (2048 words × 8 bits), single monolithic SRAM array |
| Access Time (tAA) | 55 ns max - defines minimum address stability window before valid data appears |
| Read Cycle Time (tRC) | 55 ns max - determines maximum sustained read throughput (18.2 MHz) |
| Write Cycle Time (tWC) | 55 ns max - sets minimum interval between successive write operations |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - requires stable 5 V ±10% rail; all VCC pins must be connected |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial environments per datasheet specification |
| Standby Current (ISB1) | 20 mA max (both ports disabled) - enables low-power idle states in burst-access systems |
Pinout & Package
Package: 48-pin plastic DIP (PDG48), 48-pin LCC (LC48), or 48-pin Flatpack (FP48); body dimensions vary by package type per datasheet mechanical drawings.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0L–A10L | Left port address inputs | 11-bit address bus for left-side memory access (2048 locations) |
| 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 path; high-impedance when OE = VIH or CE = VIH |
| I/O0R–I/O7R | Right port bidirectional data | 8-bit data path; isolated from left port I/O lines |
| CEL, CER | Chip enable inputs | Active-low enables respective port; controls power-down entry/exit |
| OEL, OER | Output enable inputs | Active-low enables data drivers; overrides R/W state for read-only access |
| R/WL, R/WR | Read/write direction controls | Active-low = write; high = read; determines I/O driver direction per port |
| BUSYL, BUSYR | Open-drain BUSY flags | Outputs (MASTER only); require external 270 Ω pull-up to VCC per datasheet note |
| VCC, GND | Power supply terminals | All VCC and GND pins must be connected; decoupling recommended per layout guidelines |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| On-chip arbitration logic | Resolves simultaneous same-address access without external logic; asserts BUSY before write corruption |
| Independent dual-port architecture | Enables concurrent read/write operations across ports-e.g., CPU writes while DSP reads same memory |
| Open-drain BUSY outputs | Supports wired-OR expansion across multiple MASTER/SLAVE arrays without additional gates |
| 5V TTL-compatible interface | Direct connection to legacy microcontrollers, FPGAs, and ASICs without level-shifting circuitry |
| Industrial temperature qualification | Validated operation from –40°C to +85°C-suitable for motor drives, PLCs, and outdoor telecom equipment |

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 CY7C133-55JC | 55 ns tRC, 2K × 8, but lacks on-chip arbitration logic and BUSY outputs | Requires external logic for contention resolution; unsuitable for MASTER/SLAVE expansion | Select when arbitration is handled in FPGA or processor firmware |
| IDT7142SA55C | Same speed and organization, but SLAVE-only: BUSY pins are inputs, no arbitration logic | Must be paired with IDT7132SA55C in width-expansion configurations; cannot operate standalone as MASTER | Choose only as companion device in multi-chip 16-bit+ memory systems |
Compared with CY7C133-55JC, IDT7132SA55C delivers hardware-enforced write collision avoidance critical for deterministic real-time systems; compared with IDT7142SA55C, it provides autonomous arbitration capability essential for stand-alone dual-port operation.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the IDT7132SA55C?
The IDT7132SA55C supports a maximum read cycle time (tRC) of 55 ns, corresponding to an effective maximum operating frequency of approximately 18.2 MHz for sustained sequential reads. This value is guaranteed across the full industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and 4.5 V–5.5 V supply voltage, as specified in the AC Electrical Characteristics table for the "X55" speed grade.
Does the IDT7132SA55C require external pull-up resistors on BUSY pins?
Yes, the IDT7132SA55C BUSYL and BUSYR pins are open-drain outputs and require external 270 Ω pull-up resistors to VCC, as explicitly stated in the datasheet notes. Failure to install these resistors will prevent proper BUSY assertion during port contention, risking data corruption in MASTER/SLAVE configurations.
Can the IDT7132SA55C operate as a standalone dual-port RAM without a SLAVE device?
Yes, the IDT7132SA55C functions fully as a standalone 2K × 8 dual-port SRAM with independent left/right port access, on-chip arbitration, and BUSY signaling. Its MASTER capability is optional-used only when expanding data bus width beyond 8 bits with IDT7142 SLAVE devices-but not required for basic dual-port operation.
What is the difference between IDT7132SA55C and IDT7132LA55C?
The IDT7132SA55C uses standard-power CMOS design with typical active current of 325 mW and standby current of 5 mW, while the IDT7132LA55C is a low-power variant offering 1 mW typical standby and 2V data retention capability. Both share identical 55 ns timing, pinout, and functionality-but LA versions add battery backup support not present in the SA variant.
Which packages are available for the IDT7132SA55C?
The IDT7132SA55C is offered in 48-pin plastic DIP (PDG48), 48-pin LCC (LC48), and 48-pin Flatpack (FP48) packages, as confirmed in the Pin Configurations section. All variants maintain identical electrical specifications and pin assignments; mechanical dimensions differ per package type but do not affect functional integration.
