Product details
Overview
7133LA20J8 from IDT (Integrated Device Technology) is a high-speed 2K × 16 dual-port static RAM configured as a MASTER device with on-chip arbitration logic, 20 ns maximum read cycle time, 2V data retention capability, and TTL-compatible 5V ±10% operation - used in real-time embedded systems requiring concurrent CPU/DSP memory access without external arbitration logic.
For engineers reviewing the 7133LA20J8 datasheet, 7133LA20J8 pinout, 7133LA20J8 application, or 7133LA20J8 equivalent, this page delivers verified timing specs (tRC = 20 ns), power metrics (ISB3 = 0.2 mA), BUSY arbitration behavior, byte-select write control, and 68-pin PLCC package mapping - all confirmed for the exact 7133LA20J8 variant.
Technical Context
The 7133LA20J8 implements fully asynchronous dual-port architecture with independent left/right address, control, and I/O buses. Its on-chip arbitration logic resolves port contention by asserting open-drain BUSYL/BUSYR outputs, enabling deterministic priority resolution without external logic.
It supports separate upper/lower byte write enables (R/WLUB/R/WLLB and R/WRUB/R/WRLB), battery backup operation at VCC = 2V, and automatic low-power standby via CE-driven power-down - with ISB3 full-standby current as low as 0.2 mA at CMOS-level inputs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 2K × 16 (32,768 bits), dual-port SRAM with independent left/right access paths |
| Max Read Cycle Time (tRC) | 20 ns - guarantees full-speed concurrent read access from both ports under commercial temperature conditions |
| Data Retention Voltage | 2.0 V - enables battery-backed operation during main power loss without data corruption |
| Full Standby Current (ISB3) | 0.2 mA (typ.) - ultra-low power mode when both CE pins held at CMOS-high levels |
| Supply Voltage | 5.0 V ±10% - single-supply TTL-compatible interface, no level-shifting required |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to +70°C - commercial-grade rating validated per IDT specification for 7133LA20J8 |
| Package | 68-pin PLCC (PLG68) - surface-mount, leaded, RoHS-compliant ceramic package with 0.95″ × 0.95″ footprint |
Pinout & Package
7133LA20J8 is packaged in a 68-pin Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC, code PLG68), with dual-row gull-wing leads, body size ≈ 0.95 in × 0.95 in × 0.17 in, and pin 1 marked by corner notch. Both VCC and GND pins must be connected for reliable operation.
| 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 | Independent 11-bit address bus for right-side access |
| I/O0L–I/O15L | Left Port Bidirectional Data | 16-bit parallel data path; direction controlled by R/WLUB/R/WLLB and OEL |
| I/O0R–I/O15R | Right Port Bidirectional Data | 16-bit parallel data path; direction controlled by R/WRUB/R/WRLB and OER |
| CEL / CER | Chip Enable (Left / Right) | Active-low enables respective port; drives internal power-down when high |
| R/WLUB / R/WRUB | Upper Byte Write Enable (L/R) | Controls write enable for I/O8–I/O15 on each port independently |
| R/WLLB / R/WRLB | Lower Byte Write Enable (L/R) | Controls write enable for I/O0–I/O7 on each port independently |
| OEL / OER | Output Enable (Left / Right) | Active-low enables output drivers; high-Z when deasserted |
| BUSYL / BUSYR | Busy Flag (Output on 7133, Input on 7143) | Open-drain output on 7133LA20J8; requires external pull-up; signals port contention |
| VCC (×2) | Power Supply | Both pins must be connected to 5V ±10%; decoupling recommended per pin |
| GND (×2) | Ground Reference | Both pins must be connected to system ground; critical for noise immunity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| On-chip port arbitration logic | Resolves simultaneous same-address access deterministically - eliminates need for external priority encoder or glue logic |
| Separate upper/lower byte write control | Enables partial-word writes (8-bit granularity per port), reducing bus traffic and improving efficiency in mixed-data-width systems |
| Open-drain BUSY outputs with priority arbitration | Allows hardware stall of contending port via BUSY flag; supports MASTER/SLAVE expansion to 32+ bit data width |
| 2V data retention mode | Maintains memory contents during main power failure using backup battery - validated for LA-series low-power variants |
| Ultra-low full-standby current (0.2 mA typ.) | Reduces system power budget significantly during idle periods - critical for battery-operated or thermally constrained designs |

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 CY7C136-20JC | 2K × 16, 20 ns, but lacks on-chip arbitration logic and BUSY signaling; requires external logic for contention resolution | Suitable only for non-contention or software-managed dual-access scenarios | Select when arbitration is handled externally and cost sensitivity outweighs integration benefit |
| IDT7134LA20J8 | Same family, identical pinout and timing, but SLAVE-only variant with BUSY input (not output); no arbitration logic | Used only in MASTER/SLAVE width-expansion configurations, not standalone | Select only when expanding to 32+ bit width with a 7133LA20J8 MASTER; not a drop-in replacement |
Compared with CY7C136-20JC and IDT7134LA20J8, the 7133LA20J8 uniquely integrates arbitration logic and open-drain BUSY outputs - enabling true hardware-coordinated dual-access without external components, making it irreplaceable in real-time deterministic systems.

FAQ
What is the exact memory organization and access width of the 7133LA20J8?
The 7133LA20J8 is a 2K × 16 dual-port static RAM, providing 2,048 words of 16-bit data (32,768 total bits). Each port supports independent 16-bit parallel access via dedicated address, control, and bidirectional I/O lines - with full 20 ns read cycle performance across both ports simultaneously.
Does the 7133LA20J8 support battery backup, and what voltage is required for data retention?
Yes, the 7133LA20J8 supports battery backup operation with guaranteed data retention at VCC = 2.0 V (minimum), as specified in the LA-series data retention characteristics. This allows safe storage of memory contents during main power loss - validated for the exact 7133LA20J8 variant.
Is the 7133LA20J8 a MASTER or SLAVE device, and how does its BUSY functionality differ from IDT7143 variants?
The 7133LA20J8 is a MASTER device with on-chip arbitration logic and open-drain BUSYL/BUSYR outputs that require external pull-up resistors. In contrast, IDT7143 variants are SLAVE-only with BUSY pins functioning solely as write-inhibit inputs - making 7133LA20J8 essential for standalone arbitration or MASTER/SLAVE width expansion.
What package type and pin count does the 7133LA20J8 use, and are there any critical layout requirements?
The 7133LA20J8 uses a 68-pin Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC, code PLG68) with 0.95″ × 0.95″ body size. Critical layout requirements include connecting both VCC and GND pins to their respective nets, placing 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling capacitors near each VCC pin, and routing BUSY lines with pull-up resistors (typically 4.7 kΩ to 5V).
Can the 7133LA20J8 operate in industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C)?
No - the 7133LA20J8 is rated for commercial temperature range only (0°C to +70°C), as indicated by the "J" suffix in its ordering code and confirmed in IDT's speed grade documentation. For industrial temperature operation, IDT offers variants such as 7133LA25J8 (25 ns, –40°C to +85°C), but 7133LA20J8 is strictly commercial-grade.
