Product details
Overview
IDT71342SA55JI8 from Integrated Device Technology is a high-speed 4K × 8 dual-port static RAM with on-chip semaphore logic, operating at 55 ns max read/write cycle time, supporting independent asynchronous access from left and right ports, and featuring TTL-compatible 5V ±10% supply - used in real-time interprocessor communication systems requiring deterministic resource arbitration.
For engineers reviewing the IDT71342SA55JI8 datasheet, IDT71342SA55JI8 pinout, IDT71342SA55JI8 application, or IDT71342SA55JI8 equivalent, this page delivers verified timing specs (tRC = 55 ns), power behavior (ISB3 = 1.0 mA typ.), semiconductor-grade industrial temperature support (–40°C to +85°C), and exact PLCC-52 package mapping per official IDT documentation.
Technical Context
The IDT71342SA55JI8 implements fully asynchronous dual-port SRAM architecture with physically separate address/data/control paths for left (L) and right (R) ports, enabling concurrent read/write operations without bus contention. Its dedicated 3-bit semaphore address space (A0–A2) and SEM pin-controlled access isolate flag management from main memory space.
Semaphore logic uses dual request latches per flag with priority resolution on simultaneous write attempts, ensuring exactly one port acquires the token - no software arbitration delay or wait states required. Power-down modes are controlled independently per port via CE and SEM pins, with CMOS-level standby (ISB3) drawing only 1.0 mA typical at VCC = 5V.
Key Specifications

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cypress CY7C1355BV33 | 3.3V core, 64-pin TQFP only, tRC = 55 ns, no native semaphore logic - requires external logic or firmware arbitration | Requires redesign for 3.3V I/O and external semaphore implementation; unsuitable for drop-in 5V TTL systems | Select only if migrating to 3.3V architecture and adding FPGA-based semaphore controller |
| IDT71342LA55JI8 | Same speed grade (55 ns), identical PLCC-52 pinout, but LA variant adds 2V data retention (100 µA ICCDR) - higher standby current in ISB1/ISB2 modes | Direct physical replacement; differs only in battery backup capability and slightly higher active power | Choose IDT71342LA55JI8 only when 2V data retention during main power loss is required |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for IDT71342SA55JI8?
IDT71342SA55JI8 is rated for industrial temperature operation from –40°C to +85°C, validated per IDT specification DSC2621/16. This range applies to all AC and DC electrical parameters including tRC = 55 ns max, ISB3 = 1.0 mA typical, and VIH/VIL thresholds - no derating required within this envelope.
Does IDT71342SA55JI8 support battery backup operation?
No. IDT71342SA55JI8 does not support battery backup or 2V data retention. That feature is exclusive to the LA variant (e.g., IDT71342LA55JI8). The SA suffix denotes standard power operation only, with data retention guaranteed only at VCC ≥ 4.5 V.
How many semaphore flags does IDT71342SA55JI8 provide, and how are they accessed?
IDT71342SA55JI8 provides eight independent binary semaphore flags, accessed exclusively via A0–A2 address lines when SEM = VIL. Only I/O0 is used for writing; all eight I/O lines reflect the flag state (0x00 or 0xFF) on read. Each flag operates as a hardware token with automatic conflict resolution.
Is IDT71342SA55JI8 pin-compatible with other members of the IDT71342 family?
Yes - IDT71342SA55JI8 shares identical PLCC-52 pinout with all IDT71342X55 variants (e.g., IDT71342LA55JI8), including matching signal names, positions, and power/ground pin assignments. No PCB layout changes are needed when substituting within the 55 ns speed grade.
What is the minimum pulse width required for reliable write operations on IDT71342SA55JI8?
The minimum write pulse width (tWP) for IDT71342SA55JI8 is 50 ns, specified in Table 10b of the datasheet. This value ensures proper setup and hold timing for data valid window (tDW = 25 ns) and write recovery (tWR = 0 ns), and must be maintained across the full –40°C to +85°C temperature range.
