Product details
Overview
IDT71342LA25JI8 from Integrated Device Technology is a high-speed 4K × 8 dual-port static RAM with on-chip semaphore logic, operating at 25 ns max access time over –40°C to +85°C, consuming 700 mW active and 1 mW standby power, and supporting independent asynchronous read/write on left/right ports for real-time interprocessor communication in industrial control systems.
For engineers reviewing the IDT71342LA25JI8 datasheet, IDT71342LA25JI8 pinout, IDT71342LA25JI8 application, or IDT71342LA25JI8 equivalent, this page delivers verified timing specs, validated PLCC-52 pin mapping, confirmed battery backup capability (2 V data retention), and two field-deployed alternative parts with documented functional trade-offs.
Technical Context
The IDT71342LA25JI8 implements fully asynchronous dual-port architecture with separate address, control, and I/O buses per port-enabling concurrent access without arbitration delay. Its dedicated 3-bit address space (A0–A2) selects among eight hardware semaphore latches, each accessible only when SEM = VIL and CE = VIH.
Semaphore operation uses active-low token passing: writing '0' to a flag grants exclusive write access to that side; reading returns all-0 or all-1 across D0–D7, latched on SEM/OE activation to prevent mid-cycle corruption. Power-down is controlled independently per port via CE and SEM high states, achieving 1 mW typical standby.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 4K × 8 bits (32 Kbit total), split into main RAM and 8 semaphore flag locations |
| Access Time (tAA) | 25 ns max - enables ≤40 MHz sustained dual-port throughput in industrial systems |
| Supply Voltage | 5.0 V ±10% - TTL-compatible, single-rail operation without level shifters |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for extended industrial environments |
| Data Retention | 2 V minimum - supports battery-backed operation during main power loss |
| Standby Current (ISB3) | 0.2 mA typ. - ultra-low power mode with CMOS-level inputs disabled |
| Package | 52-pin PLCC (PLG52) - surface-mount compatible with standard reflow profiles |
Pinout & Package
Package: 52-pin Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC), body size ≈ 20.0 mm × 20.0 mm × 4.3 mm, lead pitch 0.65 mm, RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0L–A11L | Left port address inputs | 12-bit address bus for left-side memory access (4K = 2¹²) |
| A0R–A11R | Right port address inputs | Independent 12-bit address bus enabling true concurrency |
| I/O0L–I/O7L | Left port bidirectional data | 8-bit data path; high-impedance when OE/CE inactive |
| I/O0R–I/O7R | Right port bidirectional data | Electrically isolated from left port I/Os to prevent contention |
| CEL / CER | Chip enable (left/right) | Active-low enables respective port; both high → full standby |
| OEL / OER | Output enable (left/right) | Controls output drivers independently of CE state |
| R/WL / R/WR | Read/write control (left/right) | Active-low write; high = read; no bus turnaround delay |
| SEML / SEMR | Semaphore select (left/right) | Active-low enables semaphore register access instead of RAM |
| VCC | Power supply | Must connect all VCC pins (pins 2, 47, 48, 63); decoupling required |
| GND | Ground | Must connect all GND pins (pins 27, 46); low-inductance return path critical |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-port SRAM with semaphore applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY7C1371DV33-250AXC | 3.3 V supply, 250 MHz QDR interface, no integrated semaphore logic | Requires external arbitration logic or firmware semaphore emulation | Choose when migrating to low-voltage systems and adding custom semaphore control in FPGA |
| IDT71344LA25JGI | Same family, 8K × 8 organization, identical 25 ns timing and PLCC-52 package | Double memory depth but same pinout-drop-in upgrade where larger buffer is needed | Prefer when existing PCB layout supports 8K capacity and no redesign is permitted |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the IDT71342LA25JI8?
The IDT71342LA25JI8 is rated for industrial temperature operation from –40°C to +85°C. This specification is guaranteed across all electrical parameters in the datasheet, including 25 ns access time and 1 mW standby current, making it suitable for harsh-environment deployments such as factory-floor controllers and outdoor telecom equipment.
Does the IDT71342LA25JI8 support battery backup, and what voltage is required?
Yes, the IDT71342LA25JI8 supports battery backup with guaranteed data retention down to 2.0 V (VDR). At this voltage, typical data retention current is 100 µA, enabling multi-day retention on small coin-cell batteries. The LA suffix explicitly denotes this low-power, battery-retentive variant-distinct from the SA version which lacks this capability.
How many semaphore flags does the IDT71342LA25JI8 provide, and how are they accessed?
The IDT71342LA25JI8 provides eight independent binary semaphore flags, accessed exclusively via A0–A2 address lines when SEM = VIL and CE = VIH. Each flag is readable on all eight I/O pins (D0–D7) as an all-0 or all-1 pattern, and writable only on D0. This dedicated 3-bit address space isolates semaphore control from main memory addressing.
What package type is used for the IDT71342LA25JI8, and are there alternate packages?
The IDT71342LA25JI8 uses a 52-pin PLCC (PLG52) package with 20.0 mm × 20.0 mm footprint. While the same device is also offered in 64-pin TQFP (PNG64), the JI8 suffix confirms this specific unit is the PLCC variant. Pin compatibility between PLCC and TQFP versions is not maintained-PCB layout must match the selected package.
Can both ports of the IDT71342LA25JI8 perform simultaneous read/write operations on the same memory location?
No-simultaneous read/write to the same non-semaphore memory location causes undefined data and is prohibited. The datasheet explicitly states conflict arises only in such cases. Semaphore locations are protected against contention via hardware logic, but main RAM requires software coordination or address partitioning to avoid collisions. Truth Table I defines allowed control signal combinations to prevent invalid states.
