Product details
Overview
7143LA55GB from IDT is a low-power, 2K × 16-bit (4,096-word × 16-bit) asynchronous dual-port SRAM configured as a SLAVE device in MASTER/SLAVE memory expansion systems, with 55 ns maximum read cycle time, 2V data retention capability, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), used in real-time interprocessor communication and military-grade avionics bus arbitration.
For engineers reviewing the 7143LA55GB datasheet, 7143LA55GB pinout, 7143LA55GB application, or 7143LA55GB equivalent, this page delivers verified timing parameters, BUSY input behavior, byte-select write control, power-down current specs, and package-validated pin mapping for 68-pin PLCC, PGA, and flatpack footprints - critical for deterministic contention resolution in dual-CPU architectures.
Technical Context
The 7143LA55GB operates fully asynchronously on both ports, with independent address, control, and bidirectional I/O buses (I/O0L–I/O15L and I/O0R–I/O15R). Its BUSY pin functions exclusively as an input - unlike the MASTER 7133 - enabling hardware write inhibition during port-to-port address contention without internal arbitration logic.
It supports separate upper/lower byte write enables (R/WLUB/R/WLLB and R/WRUB/R/WRLB), TTL-compatible 5V ±10% supply, and battery backup mode at VCC = 2V. The device enters ultra-low standby (1 µA typical) when both chip enables (CEL/CER) are high and inputs are CMOS-level stable.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 2K × 16-bit (4,096 words × 16 bits); supports independent concurrent access per port |
| Access Time (tRC) | 55 ns max; defines minimum read cycle interval for guaranteed valid data at outputs |
| Supply Voltage | 5.0 V ±10%; single-rail operation compatible with legacy TTL logic families |
| Data Retention | 2 V minimum; retains stored data during brown-out or battery-backup mode |
| Standby Current (ISB3) | 0.2 µA typical; achieved when both CEL and CER > VCC − 0.2 V and all inputs static |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +85°C; qualified for industrial embedded systems requiring extended thermal stability |
| Input Capacitance | 11 pF max; ensures signal integrity up to ~100 MHz with standard PCB trace design |
Pinout & Package
7143LA55GB is available in 68-pin PLCC (PLG68), 68-pin ceramic PGA (GU68), and 68-pin flatpack (FP68) packages. All variants share identical pinout and electrical behavior.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0L–A10L / A0R–A10R | Address Inputs (Left/Right Port) | 11-bit address bus per port; selects one of 2K memory locations independently |
| I/O0L–I/O15L / I/O0R–I/O15R | Bidirectional Data I/O (Left/Right Port) | 16-bit parallel data path per port; high-impedance when CE or OE inactive |
| CEL / CER | Chip Enable (Left/Right Port) | Active-low enable; disables port logic and reduces current to ISB1/ISB3 levels when high |
| R/WLUB / R/WRUB R/WLLB / R/WRLB | Upper/Lower Byte Write Enable | Enables write to upper (I/O8–I/O15) or lower (I/O0–I/O7) byte independently per port |
| OEL / OER | Output Enable (Left/Right Port) | Active-low control of output drivers; allows read data to appear on I/O bus |
| BUSYL / BUSYR | BUSY Input (Left/Right Port) | Active-low write inhibit signal; gates internal write path when asserted (SLAVE-only function) |
| VCC (×2) / GND (×2) | Power & Ground | Dual VCC/GND pins ensure stable voltage distribution and reduce ground bounce in high-speed operation |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the role of the BUSY pin on the 7143LA55GB?
The BUSY pin on the 7143LA55GB functions exclusively as an active-low input that gates internal write operations. When asserted, it prevents writes to the memory array regardless of R/W or CE state - a defining SLAVE behavior distinct from the MASTER 7133's open-drain BUSY output. This enables hardware-level write inhibition without software intervention, critical for deterministic contention resolution in dual-CPU systems. The 7143LA55GB does not generate BUSY signals.
Can the 7143LA55GB operate standalone without a MASTER device?
Yes, the 7143LA55GB can operate as a standalone dual-port SRAM when BUSYL and BUSYR are tied HIGH (via pull-up resistors), disabling write inhibition. In this configuration, both ports perform independent reads/writes with no arbitration - but simultaneous writes to the same address result in undefined data. It is functionally complete without a MASTER, though its BUSY input capability remains unused unless paired with a 7133-series MASTER.
What is the minimum VCC required to retain data in the 7143LA55GB?
The 7143LA55GB guarantees data retention down to VCC = 2.0 V, as specified in Table 8 of the datasheet. At this voltage, ICCDR is typically 100 µA (commercial) or up to 4 mA (military/industrial), allowing extended hold time on backup batteries. Operation below 2.0 V risks data loss; the device is not characterized for retention at 1.8 V or lower. This 2V threshold is a key differentiator of the LA (low-power) variant versus SA versions.
How does the 7143LA55GB handle simultaneous access to the same memory location?
The 7143LA55GB itself does not resolve simultaneous access - it relies on an external MASTER (e.g., 7133LA55GB) to assert BUSY and stall one port's write. When BUSY is low, the 7143LA55GB blocks the write pulse internally. If BUSY is not used (i.e., held HIGH), simultaneous writes produce indeterminate results. The device provides no on-chip arbitration; its design assumes coordinated use in MASTER/SLAVE topology to guarantee deterministic behavior.
Which packages are available for the 7143LA55GB?
The 7143LA55GB is offered in three pin-compatible 68-pin packages: PLCC (PLG68), ceramic PGA (GU68), and flatpack (FP68). All share identical pinout, timing, and DC characteristics. The part number suffix "GB" denotes the PLCC variant; "GA" and "GC" correspond to PGA and flatpack respectively. TQFP (100-pin) is not available for the LA55 speed grade - only SA variants support PNG100.
