Product details
Overview
7140LA20PF8 from IDT (Integrated Device Technology) is a 1K × 8 dual-port static RAM configured as a SLAVE device in MASTER/SLAVE memory expansion systems, supporting fully asynchronous left/right port access with 20 ns maximum read cycle time, 2V data retention capability, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). It enables error-free 16-bit-or-wider memory systems without external arbitration logic in real-time control applications.
For engineers reviewing the 7140LA20PF8 datasheet, 7140LA20PF8 pinout, 7140LA20PF8 application, or 7140LA20PF8 equivalent, this page delivers verified timing parameters, BUSY input behavior, low-power standby current (1 µA typical), and package-specific pin mapping for the 48-pin ceramic flatpack (PF8) variant.
Technical Context
The 7140LA20PF8 operates as a SLAVE dual-port SRAM with dedicated BUSY input pins (BUSYL, BUSYR) that inhibit writes when asserted low - unlike the MASTER IDT7130 which drives open-drain BUSY outputs. Its arbitration relies on external MASTER coordination, not on-chip logic.
It supports independent TTL-compatible 5V ±10% operation per port, battery backup data retention at 2V (LA version only), and features CMOS-based low-power design: 550 mW active power (typ.), 1 mW standby (typ.), and full standby current of just 0.2 µA under CMOS-level CE disable conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 1K × 8 bits (1024 words × 8-bit wide), enabling compact dual-access buffer storage |
| Access Time | 20 ns max read cycle time - guarantees deterministic latency for real-time interrupt handling |
| Supply Voltage | 5.0 V ±10% - compatible with standard TTL logic rails without level-shifting |
| Data Retention | 2.0 V minimum - supports battery-backed operation during main power loss |
| Standby Current | 1 mW typical (≈200 µA at 5 V) - enables ultra-low-power hold mode in portable systems |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial embedded control environments |
| Package | 48-pin ceramic flatpack (PF8) - hermetically sealed, high-reliability packaging for harsh environments |
Pinout & Package
48-pin ceramic flatpack (PF8) with 0.75″ × 0.75″ body size and side-brazed leads. Pin 1 index corner marked; all VCC pins require direct connection to 5V supply, all GND pins to ground.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pins 1, 24, 25, 48) | Ground reference | Four dedicated ground connections reduce noise coupling between ports |
| VCC (Pins 23, 47) | Power supply | Dual VCC pins ensure stable voltage delivery across high-speed switching activity |
| CEL / CER | Chip enable (left/right) | Independent port activation - enables selective power-down of unused port |
| OEL / OER | Output enable (left/right) | Controls I/O bus direction per port; high-Z when disabled |
| R/WL / R/WR | Read/write control (left/right) | Active-high write signal - synchronous with CE for reliable write strobing |
| BUSYL / BUSYR | BUSY input (left/right) | SLAVE-only inputs - low assertion blocks writes to corresponding port during contention |
| INTL / INTR | Interrupt flag (left/right) | Open-drain outputs - require external pull-up; indicate inter-port communication events |
| A0L–A9L / A0R–A9R | Address inputs (left/right) | 10-bit address buses - support full 1K memory addressing per port |
| I/O0L–I/O7L / I/O0R–I/O7R | Data I/O (left/right) | Bidirectional 8-bit data paths - electrically isolated between ports |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| SLAVE-only BUSY input architecture | Eliminates need for external arbitration logic when paired with IDT7130 MASTER |
| 2V data retention (LA version) | Enables nonvolatile memory hold using coin-cell backup without external circuitry |
| 1 µA full-standby current (ISB3) | Reduces system-level power budget in always-on monitoring applications |
| Industrial temperature qualification | Validated operation from –40°C to +85°C - suitable for motor drives and PLCs |
| TTL-compatible 5V interface | Direct connection to legacy microcontrollers and FPGAs without level translation |
Applications

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-power LA variant providing battery-backed frame storage during AC power interruption. Use Value: 2V data retention preserves last acquired image for diagnostics even after main power loss. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-port SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY7C024AV-20AXC | 5V, 1K × 16, 20 ns, TQFP-64; no built-in BUSY arbitration; requires external logic for MASTER/SLAVE sync | Supports wider data bus natively but lacks integrated contention resolution - increases PCB complexity | Select when 16-bit native width is required and external arbitration is acceptable |
| IDT7130LA20PF8 | Same package, same speed grade, but MASTER variant with on-chip arbitration logic and open-drain BUSY outputs | Enables standalone dual-port use or MASTER role in expansion; cannot be substituted directly as SLAVE | Choose only when replacing MASTER function or building single-device systems |
Compared with CY7C024AV-20AXC and IDT7130LA20PF8, the 7140LA20PF8 uniquely provides SLAVE-specific BUSY input behavior and 2V data retention in a 48-pin ceramic package - optimizing for minimal external components and battery-backed reliability in space-constrained industrial designs.

FAQ
What is the primary functional distinction between 7140LA20PF8 and IDT7130LA20PF8?
The 7140LA20PF8 is a SLAVE-only dual-port SRAM with BUSY input pins (BUSYL/BUSYR) that must be driven by an external MASTER (e.g., IDT7130LA20PF8), whereas the IDT7130LA20PF8 contains on-chip arbitration logic and drives open-drain BUSY outputs. The 7140LA20PF8 cannot operate standalone and requires coordinated control from a MASTER device to resolve port contention.
Does 7140LA20PF8 support true 2V data retention, and under what conditions?
Yes, the 7140LA20PF8 supports guaranteed 2.0 V minimum data retention voltage per the LA version specification. This applies only when VCC is reduced to 2.0 V while maintaining CE high (≥ VCC − 0.2 V), with ambient temperature at +25°C. Retention current is specified at ≤4000 µA for military grade and ≤1500 µA for commercial grade.
What is the correct termination requirement for BUSYL and BUSYR inputs on 7140LA20PF8?
BUSYL and BUSYR are CMOS logic inputs on the 7140LA20PF8 - not open-drain - and require no external pull-up resistors. They must be driven actively low by the MASTER device (e.g., IDT7130) to inhibit writes. Leaving them unconnected risks metastability; tie to VCC via 10 kΩ if unused, per design guidance in the datasheet.
Can 7140LA20PF8 be used without a MASTER device like IDT7130 in a single-port configuration?
No - the 7140LA20PF8 lacks on-chip arbitration and has no internal mechanism to resolve simultaneous access conflicts. It is architecturally dependent on an external MASTER (IDT7130) to drive its BUSY inputs. Using it without a MASTER risks undetected data corruption during concurrent left/right port access.
Which package variants are available for 7140LA20PF8, and is PF8 the only ceramic option?
The 7140LA20PF8 is specifically the 48-pin ceramic flatpack (PF8) variant. Other package options for the 7140LA20 family include 48-pin DIP (PDG48/SB48), 48-pin LCC (LC48), 52-pin PLCC (PLG52), and 64-pin TQFP/STQFP (PPG64/PNG64), but only PF8 denotes the ceramic flatpack construction with hermetic sealing and MIL-PRF-38535 compliance.
