Product details
Overview
71V256SA12PZGI8 from Renesas Electronics is a 256K (32K × 8-bit) high-speed CMOS static RAM with 12 ns access time, industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), single 3.3V ±0.3V supply, and LVTTL-compatible I/O - designed for secondary cache in 3.3V embedded and desktop systems requiring low-power standby operation.
For engineers reviewing the 71V256SA12PZGI8 datasheet, 71V256SA12PZGI8 pinout, 71V256SA12PZGI8 application, or 71V256SA12PZGI8 equivalent, this SRAM delivers verified 12 ns read cycle time, 2 mA full-standby current, TSOP Type I (PZG28) package compatibility, and deterministic TTL/CMOS-level control timing under industrial thermal conditions.
Technical Context
The 71V256SA12PZGI8 implements asynchronous SRAM architecture with independent address decoding and bidirectional data I/O lines. Its control logic uses three active-low enable signals - CS, WE, and OE - to manage read/write cycles and high-impedance output states without internal clocks or refresh circuitry.
It supports two standby modes: TTL-level standby (ISB ≤ 20 mA) when CS = VIH, and full CMOS-level standby (ISB1 ≤ 2 mA) when CS > VHC and f = 0. Power consumption is guaranteed <6.6 mW in full standby, enabling battery-sensitive applications.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar asynchronous SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY62256ELL-12ZXI | Same 32K × 8 organization and 12 ns speed, but 5V-tolerant I/O and wider voltage range (4.5–5.5V); no 3.3V-native LVTTL support | Requires level translation when used with 3.3V processors; suited for legacy 5V industrial backplanes | Select only if system already uses 5V logic rails and backward compatibility is mandatory |
| AS6C4008-12ZIN | Identical 32K × 8, 12 ns, 3.3V supply, and industrial temp rating; lower ISB1 (1.5 mA vs. 2 mA) but larger 32-pin SOP package | Higher pin count increases PCB area and routing complexity; not drop-in compatible with PZG28 footprint | Consider when ultra-low standby current outweighs board space constraints and rework cost |
Compared with CY62256ELL-12ZXI and AS6C4008-12ZIN, the 71V256SA12PZGI8 uniquely combines TSOP Type I packaging, verified 2 mA full-standby performance, and native LVTTL signaling - making it optimal for space-constrained, battery-aware 3.3V embedded systems where pinout compatibility and thermal robustness are critical.

This specification is validated per Renesas' qualification standards and applies to all DC and AC electrical parameters in the datasheet under 3.3V ±0.3V supply conditions. No derating is required within this range.
Does the 71V256SA12PZGI8 require a separate 5V supply or level translators?
No - the 71V256SA12PZGI8 operates exclusively from a single 3.3V ±0.3V supply and features LVTTL-compatible inputs and outputs. It interfaces directly with 3.3V microprocessors, FPGAs, and ASICs without external level-shifting circuitry.
How does standby power consumption behave on the 71V256SA12PZGI8?
The 71V256SA12PZGI8 offers two standby modes: TTL-level standby (ISB ≤ 20 mA) when CS = VIH, and full CMOS-level standby (ISB1 ≤ 2 mA) when CS > VHC and no inputs toggle. In full standby, total power dissipation is guaranteed <6.6 mW, ideal for battery-backed systems.
Is the 71V256SA12PZGI8 pin-compatible with other speed grades in the same family?
Yes - all 71V256SA variants (12 ns, 15 ns, 20 ns) share identical pinouts and package dimensions in both SOJ (PJG28) and TSOP (PZG28) configurations. The 71V256SA12PZGI8 can be substituted with 71V256SA15PZGI8 or 71V256SA20PZGI8 without PCB changes, though timing margins must be re-verified.
What package type does the 71V256SA12PZGI8 use, and is it RoHS-compliant?
The 71V256SA12PZGI8 uses a 28-pin TSOP Type I (PZG28) package with 0.55 mm lead pitch. It is a green, RoHS-compliant device per Renesas' ordering information - indicated by the "G" suffix - and contains no lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, PBB, or PBDE.
