Product details
Overview
7164S70DB from Renesas Electronics is a 64K (8K × 8-bit) high-speed CMOS static RAM with 70 ns maximum address access time, TTL-compatible I/O, single 5V supply operation, and three-state outputs. It features dual chip select (CS1/CS2) for low-power standby mode activation and is designed for military-grade embedded systems requiring reliable non-refreshing memory in harsh environments.
For engineers reviewing the 7164S70DB datasheet, 7164S70DB pinout, 7164S70DB application, or 7164S70DB equivalent, this page delivers verified timing parameters, military temperature compliance (–55°C to +125°C), package-specific pin mapping, DC/AC electrical characteristics, and real-world use context for legacy avionics, defense computing, and industrial control subsystems.
Technical Context
The 7164S70DB implements fully static asynchronous architecture-no clocks or refresh cycles required-and uses dual chip select logic where CS1 LOW + CS2 HIGH enables active read/write, while CS1 HIGH or CS2 LOW forces automatic low-power standby. Its CMOS process ensures compatibility with TTL voltage levels across all inputs and outputs.
It supports two distinct power states: active operation at ICC ≤ 110 mA (max) and standby at ISB ≤ 5 mA (max), with guaranteed data retention down to 0 V during power loss only in L-version variants-not applicable to the S-series 7164S70DB. The device is unidirectional on data lines, using OE for output enable and WE for write control.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 8K × 8-bit (65,536 bits), fixed parallel interface with no internal multiplexing |
| Access Time (tAA) | 70 ns max - defines minimum time from valid address to stable data output under military conditions |
| Supply Voltage | 5.0 V ±10% - single-rail operation simplifies power design; no auxiliary supplies needed |
| Operating Temperature | –55°C to +125°C - MIL-STD-883 Class B qualified for sustained operation in extreme thermal environments |
| Input Compatibility | TTL-compatible VIH ≥ 2.2 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V - interoperable with legacy 5V logic families without level shifting |
| Output Drive | Three-state CMOS outputs with VOH ≥ 2.4 V (IOH = –4 mA), VOL ≤ 0.5 V (IOL = 10 mA) - drives standard TTL loads directly |
| Power Dissipation | 1.0 W max - defined under absolute maximum ratings; typical active ICC = 90 mA at 5V, 25°C |
Pinout & Package
7164S70DB is supplied in a 28-pin 600 mil CERDIP (CD28) package - hermetically sealed ceramic dual in-line with 0.6-inch width, suitable for high-reliability military PCB assemblies requiring moisture resistance and thermal stability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A12 | Address Inputs | 13-bit address bus accepting full 8K address space; no internal latching - must be stable before CS activation |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Bus | 8-bit parallel data path; direction controlled by WE and OE - high-impedance when deselected or during write setup |
| CS1, CS2 | Chip Select Inputs | Active-LOW CS1 and active-HIGH CS2 form AND-gated selection; CS2 LOW overrides CS1 to force standby |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-LOW control for write cycles; concurrent LOW WE + active CS enables data capture on rising edge of WE |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-LOW control for output drivers; independent of WE - allows read-modify-write sequences |
| VCC, GND | Power Supply | Single 5V supply with dedicated ground; decoupling required per MIL-STD-883 layout guidelines |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fully static operation | No clock, no refresh - eliminates system-level timing constraints and DRAM controller overhead |
| Dual chip select architecture | CS1/CS2 logic enables precise power gating: standby current ISB ≤ 5 mA reduces system-level power budget |
| TTL-compatible signaling | Direct interface with 74LS/ALS logic families - avoids level translators in legacy board designs |
| MIL-STD-883 Class B compliance | Qualified for military applications including screening, burn-in, and environmental stress testing per specification |
| Three-state outputs | Enables bus sharing across multiple SRAMs or peripherals on common data lines without external buffers |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar static RAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IS61LV25616AL-10TLI | 3.3V supply, 10 ns access, 256K × 16 organization, LVCMOS I/O | Requires level-shifting for 5V systems; larger density but incompatible bus width | Select only for new 3.3V designs needing higher bandwidth; not drop-in for 7164S70DB |
| AS6C4008-70ZIN | 5V supply, 70 ns access, same 8K × 8 organization, industrial temp (–40°C to +85°C) | Lacks MIL-STD-883 qualification and CERDIP packaging; lower reliability screening | Acceptable for commercial/industrial upgrades where military spec is not mandated |
Compared with IS61LV25616AL-10TLI and AS6C4008-70ZIN, the 7164S70DB uniquely delivers military-grade reliability in hermetic CERDIP packaging with proven 5V TTL interoperability - essential for sustaining legacy defense platforms without redesigning power or interface layers.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the 7164S70DB?
The 7164S70DB is rated for –55°C to +125°C operation and is fully compliant with MIL-STD-883, Class B. This military-grade temperature range is validated through environmental stress screening and burn-in testing, making the 7164S70DB suitable for deployment in aircraft, armored vehicles, and shipboard systems where ambient extremes are routine.
Does the 7164S70DB support battery backup data retention?
No, the 7164S70DB does not support battery backup data retention. That feature is exclusive to the L-version variants (e.g., 7164L70DB), which specify a 2V data retention voltage. The S-version, including the 7164S70DB, is optimized for standard power operation and lacks the low-VCC retention circuitry.
What package type is used for the 7164S70DB?
The 7164S70DB is packaged in a 28-pin 600 mil CERDIP (CD28) - a hermetically sealed ceramic dual in-line package with 0.6-inch body width. This package meets stringent military reliability requirements, including resistance to moisture ingress, thermal cycling, and mechanical shock.
Can the 7164S70DB be used with modern 3.3V microcontrollers?
The 7164S70DB operates exclusively at 5V and features TTL-compatible I/O thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.2 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V). Direct interfacing with 3.3V microcontrollers requires level translation, as its inputs are not 5V-tolerant and outputs exceed 3.3V logic-high limits. For native 3.3V designs, consider newer SRAM families like IS61WV series instead of the 7164S70DB.
Is the 7164S70DB still recommended for new designs?
Renesas discontinued "Not recommended for new designs" status in February 2001, and the 7164S70DB remains actively supported for legacy program continuity. While newer densities and voltages exist, the 7164S70DB is maintained for obsolescence management in certified military and aerospace systems where requalification costs outweigh migration benefits.
