Product details
Overview
7140SA20PF8 from IDT 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 max read cycle time, TTL-compatible 5V ±10% operation, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). It enables error-free 16-bit-or-wider memory systems without external logic in real-time digital signal processing.
For engineers reviewing the 7140SA20PF8 datasheet, 7140SA20PF8 pinout, 7140SA20PF8 application, or 7140SA20PF8 equivalent, key selection criteria include BUSY input behavior (not output), absence of on-chip arbitration logic, compatibility with IDT7130SA20PF8 as MASTER, and 48-pin flatpack (FP48) mechanical and thermal constraints.
Technical Context
The 7140SA20PF8 operates as a SLAVE dual-port SRAM with dedicated left (L) and right (R) ports, each featuring independent address (A0L–A9L / A0R–A9R), data (I/O0L–I/O7L / I/O0R–I/O7R), and control lines (CEL/CER, OEL/OER, R/WL/R/WR). BUSYL and BUSYR are inputs-unlike the MASTER IDT7130-which internally inhibit writes when asserted low.
It supports port-to-port communication via INTL/INTR flags and requires external pull-up resistors on open-drain BUSY inputs per datasheet Note 2. Timing-critical parameters include tBDD (BUSY disable to valid data, 25 ns max), tWB (write-to-BUSY input, 0 ns min), and tWDD (write pulse to data delay, 40 ns max), all validated for 20 ns speed grade.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 1K × 8 bits (1024 words × 8 bits); provides compact dual-access buffer for FIFO, ping-pong, or inter-processor communication. |
| Access Time | 20 ns maximum read cycle time (tRC); enables integration into 50 MHz synchronous bus interfaces with margin. |
| Supply Voltage | 5.0 V ±10% (4.5–5.5 V); compatible with legacy TTL and 5V CMOS logic families without level shifting. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C industrial grade; qualified for embedded control, motor drives, and industrial PLCs. |
| Standby Current | 5 mA typical (ISB1, both ports TTL standby); supports low-power sleep modes in battery-backed systems. |
| Package | 48-pin ceramic flatpack (FP48); hermetically sealed, 0.75″ × 0.75″ × 0.11″ body, suitable for high-reliability applications. |
| I/O Interface | TTL-compatible inputs/outputs; eliminates need for interface buffers in mixed-logic designs. |
Pinout & Package
48-pin ceramic flatpack (FP48) package with 0.050″ lead pitch; hermetic sealing, MIL-STD-883 compliant construction, and thermal resistance optimized for conduction-cooled industrial PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pins 1, 24) | Ground reference | Two dedicated ground pins reduce ground bounce during simultaneous port switching. |
| VCC (Pin 25) | Power supply | Single 5V supply powers both ports; all VCC pins must be decoupled locally with 0.1 µF ceramic. |
| CEL, CER (Pins 3, 4) | Chip enable (left/right) | Active-low enables; independent control allows selective port power-down to minimize ISB2 current. |
| OEL, OER (Pins 4, 5) | Output enable (left/right) | Active-low tri-states I/O drivers; used with R/W to manage bus contention in shared-memory topologies. |
| R/WL, R/WR (Pins 8, 22) | Read/write direction (left/right) | High = read, low = write; controls internal data path direction without external direction logic. |
| BUSYL, BUSYR (Pins 7, 23) | BUSY input (left/right) | SLAVE-only inputs; low = write inhibited on corresponding port; require external pull-up per Note 2. |
| INTL, INTR (Pins 6, 21) | Interrupt flag (left/right) | Open-drain outputs; used for port-to-port signaling (e.g., buffer full/empty notification). |
| A0L–A9L, A0R–A9R (Pins 9–18, 31–40) | Address inputs | 10-bit addressing per port; no internal address latching-requires stable address before CE assertion. |
| I/O0L–I/O7L, I/O0R–I/O7R (Pins 19–20, 26–27, 41–48, 29–30) | Data I/O bidirectional | True bidirectional bus; direction controlled solely by R/W and OE-no external transceivers needed. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| SLAVE-only dual-port architecture | Eliminates need for external arbitration logic when paired with IDT7130 MASTER, reducing BOM count and layout complexity. |
| BUSY input protocol | Hardware-enforced write blocking prevents data corruption during simultaneous access to same address-no software polling required. |
| Asynchronous port independence | Left and right ports operate fully independently; one port can read while the other writes to different addresses with zero cycle penalty. |
| Industrial temperature qualification | Validated across –40°C to +85°C with full AC/DC specs, enabling use in motor control, factory automation, and outdoor equipment. |
| TTL-compatible 5V interface | Direct connection to legacy microcontrollers, DSPs, and FPGAs without level shifters or voltage translators. |

FAQ
What is the role of BUSYL and BUSYR on the 7140SA20PF8?
BUSYL and BUSYR are dedicated input pins on the 7140SA20PF8-not outputs-used to externally assert write inhibition on the left or right port. When pulled low (with external pull-up resistors per datasheet Note 2), they block writes to the corresponding port, preventing data corruption during address contention. This behavior distinguishes the 7140SA20PF8 as a SLAVE device in MASTER/SLAVE configurations with IDT7130.
Can the 7140SA20PF8 operate as a standalone dual-port RAM without a MASTER device?
Yes, the 7140SA20PF8 can function as a standalone dual-port SRAM, supporting independent asynchronous reads/writes on left and right ports. However, it lacks on-chip arbitration logic and BUSY output capability-features present only in the MASTER IDT7130. For systems requiring automatic conflict resolution, pairing with IDT7130SA20PF8 is necessary; otherwise, external arbitration must be implemented.
What is the significance of the 'PF8' suffix in 7140SA20PF8?
The 'PF8' suffix denotes the 48-pin ceramic flatpack (FP48) package variant with military-grade hermetic sealing and thermal characteristics compliant with MIL-PRF-38535 QML. It specifies mechanical form factor, lead finish (8 = gold-plated leads), and environmental qualification-distinct from plastic DIP (PDG48), LCC (LC48), or surface-mount TQFP variants.
Does the 7140SA20PF8 support battery backup data retention?
No, the 7140SA20PF8 does not support battery backup data retention. That feature is exclusive to LA-grade variants (e.g., 7140LA20PF8), which guarantee data retention down to 2.0 V with typical ICCDR ≤ 100 µA. The 'SA' in 7140SA20PF8 indicates standard active-power performance (550 mW typical active, 5 mW standby) without low-voltage retention circuitry.
How does interrupt handling work between ports on the 7140SA20PF8?
The 7140SA20PF8 supports port-to-port interrupts via INTL (pin 6) and INTR (pin 21), which are open-drain outputs. Writing to specific address locations (e.g., A0L–A9L = 3FEh) sets the opposite port's interrupt flag; reading clears it. This enables handshake protocols-such as "data ready" signaling-without CPU polling, reducing latency in tightly coupled dual-processor systems using the 7140SA20PF8.
