Product details
Overview
71V256SA15PZGI from Renesas Electronics is a 256K (32K × 8-bit) high-speed CMOS static RAM with 15 ns access time, industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), single 3.3 V ±0.3 V supply, and LVTTL-compatible I/O - designed for secondary cache in embedded computing and industrial control systems requiring low-power standby operation.
For engineers reviewing the 71V256SA15PZGI datasheet, 71V256SA15PZGI pinout, 71V256SA15PZGI application, or 71V256SA15PZGI equivalent, this page delivers verified timing parameters, package-specific terminal mapping, industrial-grade power behavior, and real-world use context for cache memory selection in space-constrained, thermally demanding designs.
Technical Context
The 71V256SA15PZGI implements asynchronous SRAM architecture with full TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max) and CMOS-level standby control. Its dual-mode standby-TTL-level (ISB ≤ 20 mA) and full CMOS-level (ISB1 ≤ 2 mA)-enables dynamic power scaling based on chip select logic level.
It supports both CS-controlled and WE-controlled write cycles with guaranteed tWC = 15 ns, tAA = 15 ns, and tCLZ = 5 ns. The device uses address-decoded memory array with no internal refresh, eliminating timing overhead and ensuring deterministic latency critical for cache coherency in microprocessor subsystems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 32K × 8-bit (262,144 bits), byte-wide parallel interface |
| Access Time (tAA) | 15 ns maximum - ensures compatibility with 66 MHz bus timing in 3.3 V systems |
| Supply Voltage | 3.3 V ± 0.3 V - matches modern low-voltage processor I/O domains without level translation |
| Standby Current (ISB1) | ≤ 2 mA at full CMOS-level standby - enables >10× reduction vs active mode for battery-backed applications |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial automation, transportation, and outdoor edge controllers |
| I/O Compatibility | LVTTL - interoperable with 3.3 V FPGA, ASIC, and microcontroller GPIO without external buffers |
| Package | 28-pin TSOP Type I (PZG28), 8.1 mm × 13.4 mm footprint - optimized for high-density PCB layouts |
Pinout & Package
71V256SA15PZGI is housed in a 28-pin TSOP Type I (PZG28) package with 0.5 mm pitch and JEDEC-standard pinout. The package supports reflow soldering and meets RoHS/Green compliance per ordering code suffix 'G' and 'I'.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A14 | Address Inputs | 15-bit address bus supporting full 32K-word addressing; TTL-compatible thresholds ensure noise margin in noisy industrial environments |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Bus | 8-bit data path with tristate control via OE/WE/CS; output drive strength (IOH = –4 mA, IOL = 8 mA) sustains signal integrity across 5 cm traces |
| CS | Chip Select | Active-low enable controlling full device standby; CMOS-level high (> VCC – 0.2 V) triggers ISB1 ≤ 2 mA mode |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write strobe; controls data latching on falling edge; supports WE- or CS-controlled write timing modes |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low read control; places outputs in high-Z when deasserted, enabling bus sharing with other peripherals |
| VCC | Power Supply | 3.3 V ± 0.3 V primary supply; decoupling required within 1 cm of pin per high-frequency current demands |
| GND | Ground Reference | Common return for all signals; requires dedicated plane connection to minimize ground bounce during fast transitions |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed asynchronous SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY62256ELL-15ZXI | Same 32K × 8 organization, 15 ns access, but 5 V tolerant I/O (VIH up to 5.5 V); higher ISB1 (5 mA) | Preferred in mixed-voltage systems with legacy 5 V peripherals; less suitable for pure 3.3 V low-power designs | Select when interfacing with 5 V logic or requiring wider input voltage tolerance; verify VCC = 3.3 V compatibility in datasheet |
| AS6C4008-15TIN | Pin-compatible TSOP-28, 15 ns access, but only commercial temp range (0°C to +70°C); lower ICC (75 mA vs 85 mA) | Suitable for cost-sensitive consumer or lab equipment; not rated for extended industrial thermal cycling | Choose for non-critical indoor applications where temperature stability is assured; avoid in sealed enclosures without thermal management |
Compared with CY62256ELL-15ZXI and AS6C4008-15TIN, the 71V256SA15PZGI uniquely combines industrial temperature qualification, sub-2 mA full standby, and native 3.3 V LVTTL compatibility - making it optimal for thermally aggressive, battery-aware, and purely 3.3 V embedded systems.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the 71V256SA15PZGI?
The 71V256SA15PZGI is rated for industrial temperature operation from –40°C to +85°C. This specification is validated across all AC and DC parameters in the datasheet, including access time, standby current, and I/O voltage thresholds. It is not rated for extended temperature or military-grade operation beyond this range.
Does the 71V256SA15PZGI support true static operation without refresh?
Yes, the 71V256SA15PZGI is a fully asynchronous static RAM with no internal refresh circuitry. It retains data indefinitely as long as VCC and GND are maintained within specification and CS remains asserted (low) during active use. No external refresh controller or timing sequence is required.
What is the difference between ISB and ISB1 current ratings for the 71V256SA15PZGI?
ISB (≤20 mA) applies when CS is held at TTL-high (≥2.0 V), while ISB1 (≤2 mA) applies under full CMOS-level standby (CS > VCC – 0.2 V, f = 0). ISB1 represents the lowest possible quiescent current state and is critical for battery-backed retention applications where microamp-level savings matter.
Is the 71V256SA15PZGI pin-compatible with other 28-pin SRAMs like the 62256 series?
No, the 71V256SA15PZGI uses a standard 28-pin TSOP Type I pinout (PZG28) that matches JEDEC MO-141BA, but differs from 62256-family SOJ/DIP layouts. While address/data pin positions align with industry convention (A0–A14, I/O0–I/O7), control signal placement (CS, WE, OE) follows Renesas' specific assignment - verify against the 71V256SA15PZGI pin diagram before board reuse.
Can the 71V256SA15PZGI operate reliably at 3.0 V minimum supply voltage?
Yes, the 71V256SA15PZGI is specified for VCC = 3.0 V to 3.6 V. At 3.0 V, VOH remains ≥2.4 V (IOH = –4 mA) and VOL stays ≤0.4 V (IOL = 8 mA), preserving LVTTL logic margins. However, tAA increases to 17 ns (not guaranteed), so 3.3 V is recommended for full 15 ns timing compliance.
