Product details
Overview
7164L20TPG from Renesas Electronics is a 64K (8K × 8-bit) high-speed CMOS static RAM with 20 ns maximum address access time, TTL-compatible I/O, single 5V supply operation, and battery backup data retention down to 2V. It features dual chip select (CS1/CS2) for low-power standby mode and three-state outputs, used in legacy industrial controllers and military avionics memory subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the 7164L20TPG datasheet, 7164L20TPG pinout, 7164L20TPG application, or 7164L20TPG equivalent, key selection criteria include industrial temperature support (–40°C to +85°C), 28-pin plastic DIP package compatibility, 2V data retention capability, and CS-controlled write timing compliance.
Technical Context
The 7164L20TPG implements fully static asynchronous logic with no clock or refresh required. Its dual chip select architecture enables automatic entry into low-power standby when CS1 is HIGH or CS2 is LOW, reducing ICCSB to 5 µA typical at 25°C.
It uses advanced CMOS process technology to achieve 20 ns access while maintaining TTL-level input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.2 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V) and output drive (IOL = 8 mA, VOL ≤ 0.4 V). The L-version specifically supports data retention at VCC = 2.0 V with ICCDR ≤ 60 µA over full industrial temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 8K × 8-bit (65,536 bits), byte-wide parallel interface |
| Access Time (tAA) | 20 ns max - determines minimum read cycle time in CPU bus interfacing |
| Supply Voltage | 5.0 V ±10% - compatible with standard TTL logic rails without level shifting |
| Data Retention Voltage | 2.0 V min - enables battery backup operation during main power loss |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded systems |
| Package | 28-pin plastic DIP (PTG28) - through-hole mounting, 600 mil width, RoHS-compliant |
| Standby Current (ISB) | 5 µA typical - enables ultra-low-power hold mode in energy-constrained systems |
Pinout & Package
7164L20TPG is housed in a 28-pin plastic dual in-line package (PTG28), 600 mil width, with 0.3 inch row spacing and standard DIP footprint.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A12 | Address Inputs | 13-bit address bus for selecting one of 8K memory locations |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bi-directional Data Bus | 8-bit parallel data path; high-impedance when CS inactive or OE disabled |
| CS1, CS2 | Chip Select Inputs | Active-LOW CS1 and active-HIGH CS2 enable memory access; either signal deactivates device into standby |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-LOW control for write cycles; latches data on falling edge when CS enabled |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-LOW control for output drivers; disables I/O pins to prevent bus contention |
| VCC, GND | Power Supply | Single 5V supply with dedicated ground; decoupling required per high-speed RAM layout guidelines |

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the 7164L20TPG?
The 7164L20TPG is rated for industrial temperature operation from –40°C to +85°C. This specification is confirmed in the "Recommended Operating Temperature and Supply Voltage" table (2967 tbl 03) and applies specifically to the TPG package variant ordered with industrial grade marking. It does not support military or commercial-only temperature ranges.
Does the 7164L20TPG support battery backup data retention?
Yes, the 7164L20TPG supports battery backup data retention at VCC = 2.0 V minimum, as specified in the "Data Retention Characteristics" table (2967 tbl 10). This function is exclusive to the "L" version and is validated across the full industrial temperature range with ICCDR ≤ 60 µA.
What package type is used for the 7164L20TPG?
The 7164L20TPG uses a 28-pin plastic dual in-line package (PTG28), 600 mil width, as defined in the Ordering Information section (2967 drw 11). Pin configuration matches standard 28-pin DIP footprints with pin 1 marked by a dot, and it is RoHS-compliant per Renesas green part designation.
How does chip select work on the 7164L20TPG?
The 7164L20TPG uses two independent chip selects: CS1 (active-LOW) and CS2 (active-HIGH). The device is selected only when CS1 = LOW and CS2 = HIGH. If CS1 goes HIGH or CS2 goes LOW, the device enters low-power standby mode with ISB ≤ 5 µA, as verified in DC Electrical Characteristics (2967 tbl 07).
Is the 7164L20TPG pin-compatible with other 7164 variants?
Yes, all 7164 family members-including 7164S and 7164L variants in PTG28 package-share identical 28-pin DIP pinout and signal definitions per the "Pin Configurations" diagram (2967 drw 02). However, the L-version adds 2V data retention capability not present in S-version parts.
