Product details
Overview
7143SA20G from IDT is a high-speed 2K × 16 dual-port SRAM configured as a SLAVE device in MASTER/SLAVE memory expansion systems, supporting independent asynchronous access on left and right ports with 20 ns read cycle time (commercial grade), TTL-compatible 5V ±10% operation, and battery backup data retention down to 2V. It enables error-free 32-bit-or-wider word width systems without external logic.
For engineers reviewing the 7143SA20G datasheet, 7143SA20G pinout, 7143SA20G application, or 7143SA20G equivalent, this page delivers verified timing parameters (tRC = 20 ns, tAA = 20 ns), BUSY input behavior, byte-select write control, power consumption (ISB1 = 25 mA typ.), and package-specific pin validation for 68-pin PLCC, PGA, and flatpack - all critical for real-time embedded memory arbitration design.
Technical Context
The 7143SA20G operates as a SLAVE dual-port RAM with BUSY pin functioning exclusively as a write-inhibit input - unlike the MASTER IDT7133 where BUSY is an open-drain output requiring pull-up. It supports fully asynchronous, independent read/write operations on both ports with separate address, control, and I/O buses.
Its arbitration logic is disabled; contention resolution relies entirely on the MASTER's BUSY signal. The device implements per-byte write enable (R/WLUB/R/WLLB and R/WRUB/R/WRLB), enabling precise 8-bit granularity writes on each port, and features automatic power-down via CE-controlled standby modes with ISB3 = 1.0 mA (typ.) under CMOS-level inputs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 2K × 16 bits (32,768 bits total); supports independent 16-bit parallel access per port |
| Read Cycle Time (tRC) | 20 ns max (commercial grade); defines minimum interval between successive reads on same port |
| Address Access Time (tAA) | 20 ns max; determines latency from stable address to valid data output |
| Chip Enable Access (tACE) | 20 ns max; critical for CE-gated system timing margins in multi-chip configurations |
| Standby Current (ISB1) | 25 mA typical (both ports CE = VIH); key for low-power idle states in always-on subsystems |
| Data Retention Voltage | 2.0 V minimum (LA variant only); not applicable to 7143SA20G (SA = standard power, no retention) |
| Supply Voltage | 5.0 V ±10% (4.5–5.5 V); single-rail TTL-compatible operation eliminates level-shifting needs |
Pinout & Package
7143SA20G is available in 68-pin PLCC (PLG68), 68-pin ceramic PGA (GU68), and 68-pin flatpack (FP68) packages. All variants share identical pinout and function mapping.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0L–A10L | Left Port Address Inputs | 11-bit address bus for left port (2K = 211 locations) |
| A0R–A10R | Right Port Address Inputs | Independent 11-bit address bus for right port |
| I/O0L–I/O15L | Left Port Bidirectional Data | 16-bit data path; high-impedance when OEL = VIH or CE = VIH |
| I/O0R–I/O15R | Right Port Bidirectional Data | 16-bit data path; isolated from left port I/O lines |
| CEL / CER | Chip Enable (Left / Right) | Active-low enables respective port; disables I/O drivers and reduces current draw |
| R/WLUB / R/WLLB | Left Port Upper/Lower Byte Write Enable | Independent 8-bit write control: R/WLUB = I/O8L–I/O15L, R/WLLB = I/O0L–I/O7L |
| R/WRUB / R/WRLB | Right Port Upper/Lower Byte Write Enable | Same byte-granularity control for right port I/O8R–I/O15R and I/O0R–I/O7R |
| OEL / OER | Output Enable (Left / Right) | Active-low enables output drivers; overrides R/W state during reads |
| BUSYL / BUSYR | Busy Input (Left / Right) | SLAVE-only function: asserted HIGH by MASTER to inhibit writes on corresponding port |
| VCC (×2) | Power Supply | Both pins must be connected to 5V ±10%; ensures reliable internal logic and I/O drive |
| GND (×2) | Ground Reference | Both pins must be connected to system ground; minimizes noise coupling and timing skew |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent asynchronous ports | Enables concurrent CPU/DSP access to shared memory without software arbitration overhead |
| Byte-selectable write control | Permits partial-word updates (e.g., 8-bit register writes) without read-modify-write cycles |
| MASTER/SLAVE architecture support | Eliminates "busy lock-out" in 32+ bit systems by centralizing arbitration in one MASTER (IDT7133) |
| TTL-compatible 5V interface | Direct connection to legacy microcontrollers and FPGAs without level translation circuitry |
| Low-power standby modes | ISB1 = 25 mA (typ.) with CE = VIH allows rapid wake-up while minimizing idle power |
| Industrial temperature range option | Available in –40°C to +85°C (though 7143SA20G is commercial-grade: 0°C to +70°C) |
Applications
| Real-Time Digital Signal Processing | Redundant Control Systems |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Two DSP cores simultaneously accessing shared coefficient tables and FIFO buffers in radar beamforming. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: SLAVE dual-port RAM provides synchronized, contention-free memory access under MASTER arbitration, enabling deterministic 20 ns read latency. Use Value: Eliminates software semaphore delays and guarantees atomic 16-bit transfers between processing units. |
Use Scenario: Dual-lockstep microcontrollers monitoring safety-critical vehicle subsystems (e.g., braking, steering). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as fault-detection shared memory where MASTER compares outputs and asserts BUSY to SLAVE on mismatch. Use Value: Hardware-enforced write inhibition prevents inconsistent state propagation during failover events. |
| High-Speed Data Acquisition | Legacy Bus Interface Bridge |
Use Scenario: FPGA-based digitizer capturing 100+ MSPS ADC streams into ping-pong buffers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Left port accepts streaming data; right port feeds processed frames to host processor - both at full 20 ns timing. Use Value: Asynchronous dual-port operation avoids FIFO bottlenecks and enables zero-latency buffer switching. |
Use Scenario: Bridging ISA or VME bus masters to modern controller subsystems with shared configuration registers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides transparent, cycle-accurate memory-mapped register space accessible by both legacy and new controllers. Use Value: Enables hardware-level protocol translation without CPU intervention or DMA overhead. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-port SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IDT7133SA20G | MASTER device with on-chip arbitration logic and open-drain BUSY output; includes internal port arbitration | Required when building standalone dual-port systems or acting as arbitration source in MASTER/SLAVE pairs | Select IDT7133SA20G when you need hardware arbitration capability; 7143SA20G cannot replace it directly due to missing arbitration logic |
| CY7C024AV-20AXC | Cypress 2K × 16 dual-port SRAM with 20 ns access; supports JTAG boundary scan and has different BUSY implementation (bidirectional) | Used in test-accessible designs requiring IEEE 1149.1 compliance; lacks native MASTER/SLAVE expansion signaling | Choose CY7C024AV-20AXC only if JTAG debug visibility is required; pinout and timing differ - PCB redesign needed |
Compared with IDT7133SA20G, 7143SA20G omits arbitration logic and repurposes BUSY as input-only, making it strictly dependent on a MASTER for conflict resolution; versus CY7C024AV-20AXC, it offers proven military-grade packaging options and simpler BUSY integration but lacks JTAG support.

FAQ
What is the role of BUSY pins on the 7143SA20G?
The BUSY pins (BUSYL and BUSYR) on the 7143SA20G function exclusively as write-inhibit inputs - not outputs. When asserted HIGH by an external MASTER device (e.g., IDT7133SA20G), they block write operations on the corresponding port. This behavior is fixed for the SLAVE configuration and cannot be reconfigured. The 7143SA20G does not generate BUSY signals internally.
Can 7143SA20G operate as a standalone dual-port RAM without a MASTER device?
Yes, the 7143SA20G can operate as a standalone dual-port RAM for non-contention applications where both ports access disjoint memory addresses. However, it lacks on-chip arbitration logic - so simultaneous access to the same address will result in undefined data and potential bus contention unless externally managed. For guaranteed conflict resolution, pairing with IDT7133SA20G as MASTER is required.
Does 7143SA20G support battery backup data retention?
No. The 7143SA20G is the SA (Standard Active) variant and does not support battery backup data retention. Only LA (Low Active) variants like IDT7143LA20G provide 2V data retention capability. The SA version requires continuous 5V supply for data integrity; removing power results in immediate data loss.
What are the valid operating temperature ranges for 7143SA20G?
The 7143SA20G is specified for commercial temperature operation: 0°C to +70°C ambient. While the broader IDT7143 family includes industrial (–40°C to +85°C) and military (–55°C to +125°C) grades, the "20G" speed suffix and "SA" designation in this part number confirm its commercial-grade qualification per IDT documentation.
Which packages are available for 7143SA20G?
The 7143SA20G is offered in three hermetically sealed 68-pin packages: ceramic PGA (GU68), flatpack (FP68), and plastic-leaded chip carrier (PLG68). All share identical pinout and electrical characteristics. The 100-pin TQFP variant applies only to slower speed grades (e.g., X45 and below) and is not available for the 20 ns version.
