Product details
Overview
The 8403615LA from Renesas Electronics is a 16K-bit (2K × 8) low-power CMOS static RAM with 2.0V data retention capability, 25ns maximum access time (commercial/industrial), TTL-compatible I/O, and standby current as low as 0.1mA - used in battery-backed memory subsystems for industrial controllers and legacy instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the 8403615LA datasheet, 8403615LA pinout, 8403615LA application, or 8403615LA equivalent, this page delivers verified timing specs, package mapping to 24-pin SOIC (PSG24), DC/AC electrical parameters across temperature grades, and validated alternatives for drop-in replacement or power-sensitive redesign.
Technical Context
This device implements fully static asynchronous operation-no clocks or refresh required-and uses high-reliability CMOS process with alpha-particle soft-error immunity. Its dual-mode control (CS-driven standby + WE-controlled write) enables deterministic low-power state transitions in embedded systems.
The 8403615LA supports three distinct operating modes: active read/write (CS = L), high-impedance standby (CS = H, TTL-level), and ultra-low-power full standby (CS = H, CMOS-level), with data retention guaranteed at VCC ≥ 2.0V and ICCDR ≤ 0.5μA (typ.) at 2.0V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 2K × 8-bit (16,384 bits), byte-wide parallel interface |
| Access Time (tAA) | 25ns max. (commercial/industrial grade), defines minimum address-to-data valid delay |
| Data Retention Voltage | 2.0V min., enables operation from single-cell Li/MnO₂ or backup coin cell without regulator |
| Standby Current (ISB1) | 0.1mA max. (CMOS-level CS), reduces system sleep power by >95% vs. standard SA variant |
| Operating Voltage | 5.0V ±10%, compatible with legacy 5V TTL logic families and mixed-voltage board designs |
| Temperature Range | –40°C to +85°C (industrial grade), qualified for extended-life deployment in factory automation |
| I/O Compatibility | TTL input thresholds (VIH = 2.2V, VIL = 0.8V) and output drive (VOH = 2.4V @ –4mA, VOL = 0.4V @ 8mA) |
Pinout & Package
Package: 24-pin gull-wing SOIC (PSG24), 300-mil width, RoHS-compliant green variant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A10 | Address Inputs | 11-bit row/column decoder inputs; latched on CS transition for random access |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bi-directional Data Bus | 8-bit TTL-compatible data path; high-impedance when CS = H or OE = H during read |
| CS | Chip Select | Active-low enable; controls standby entry (TTL-level) and full standby (CMOS-level) modes |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write strobe; overlaps with CS = L to initiate write cycle per AC timing table |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low read control; decouples outputs from bus when deasserted to prevent contention |
| VCC | Power Supply | +5V ±10% supply; powers core logic and I/O drivers; must be stable before CS assertion |
| GND | Ground Reference | 0V return path for all internal circuits and I/O; requires low-inductance PCB connection |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the 8403615LA?
The 8403615LA is rated for industrial temperature operation from –40°C to +85°C. This range is validated per Renesas' ordering information and supported by DC/AC electrical characteristics tables specifying performance across that full span. The 8403615LA does not support commercial (0°C to +70°C) or military (–55°C to +125°C) grades - its marking and documentation confirm industrial-grade qualification only.
Does the 8403615LA require an external clock or refresh signal?
No, the 8403615LA uses fully static CMOS architecture and requires no clock or refresh signals. Its operation is purely asynchronous and controlled solely by CS, WE, and OE timing. This eliminates timing-critical clock distribution and simplifies integration into microcontroller-based systems - a key design advantage confirmed in the Functional Block Diagram and "Static operation" feature bullet of the datasheet.
What package type is used for the 8403615LA?
The 8403615LA is supplied in a 24-pin gull-wing SOIC package with 300-mil width, identified by package code PSG24. This matches the "SOIC" listing under Commercial & Industrial ordering information and is physically identical to industry-standard 24-pin SOIC footprints, enabling direct placement on legacy PCBs originally designed for 6116-series devices.
Can the 8403615LA retain data at 2.0V, and what is the typical retention current?
Yes - the 8403615LA guarantees data retention at VCC ≥ 2.0V, a defining feature of the LA (low-power) variant. Per the Data Retention Characteristics table, typical ICCDR is 0.5μA at 2.0V and 25°C, with maximum specified as 20μA across the full industrial temperature range. This enables reliable multi-year backup from common 3V coin cells with series resistor or diode dropper.
Is the 8403615LA pin-compatible with other 6116-series SRAMs like the 6116SA25?
Yes - the 8403615LA shares identical pinout, signal definitions, and 24-pin SOIC (PSG24) packaging with all IDT/Renesas 6116SA/LA variants. Pin descriptions (A0–A10, I/O0–I/O7, CS, WE, OE, VCC, GND) and functional block diagram are identical. However, timing parameters differ: the 8403615LA has 25ns tAA (same as 6116SA25), but lower ISB1 and data retention capability absent in SA versions.
