Product details
Overview
CY62256LL-55ZXI from Cypress Semiconductor is a 256K-bit (32K × 8) CMOS static RAM with 55 ns access time, 4.5–5.5 V operation, industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), and ultra-low standby power (≤5 µA). It serves as nonvolatile data buffer or working memory in embedded controllers, instrumentation, and legacy industrial systems requiring TTL-compatible parallel interface and deterministic timing.
For engineers reviewing the CY62256LL-55ZXI datasheet, CY62256LL-55ZXI pinout, CY62256LL-55ZXI application, or CY62256LL-55ZXI equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 55 ns read cycle time, automatic CE-controlled power-down, CMOS/TTL I/O compatibility, and narrow SOIC-28 packaging for space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The CY62256LL-55ZXI implements a fully static 32K × 8 memory array with three-state bidirectional I/Os, controlled by independent CE (chip enable), OE (output enable), and WE (write enable) signals. Its architecture supports seamless memory expansion via CE daisy-chaining and eliminates external wait-state logic due to fixed 55 ns tRC and tAA timing.
Power management is handled through dual-mode automatic power-down: when CE is HIGH, ISB2 drops to ≤5 µA (CMOS input condition), reducing active-to-standby power ratio by >99.9%. All DC and AC parameters-including VOH/VOL, VIH/VIL, and tHZOE/tLZCE-are specified across –40°C to +85°C at VCC = 5.0 V ±10%.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 32K words × 8 bits - provides byte-addressable 256 Kbit capacity with no internal banking or refresh overhead |
| Access Time (tAA) | 55 ns max - guarantees deterministic read latency without clock stretching or arbitration delays |
| VCC Operating Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5 V TTL/CMOS bus environments and tolerant of supply ripple |
| Standby Current (ISB2) | ≤5 µA at VCC = 5.5 V - enables battery-backed operation for >1 year in low-duty-cycle monitoring systems |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial control cabinets, motor drives, and factory automation hardware |
| Package Type | 28-pin narrow SOIC (450-mil width) - surface-mount compatible with automated assembly and IPC-7351B footprint standards |
| I/O Interface | TTL-compatible inputs/outputs - interoperable with legacy microcontrollers (e.g., 8051, Z80) without level-shifting circuitry |
Pinout & Package
Package: 28-pin narrow SOIC (450-mil body width, JEDEC MS-012AC), RoHS-compliant lead-free finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A14 | Address Inputs | 15-bit address bus supporting full 32K-word decoding; no external address latching required |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Lines | Three-state CMOS/TTL I/Os sharing single pins for read/write; high-impedance when CE or OE inactive |
| CE | Chip Enable (active LOW) | Primary selection signal; triggers automatic power-down when HIGH, eliminating need for external sleep control |
| OE | Output Enable (active LOW) | Controls I/O direction only during read cycles; does not affect write operations or power state |
| WE | Write Enable (active LOW) | Directly gates write strobe; write occurs only when CE and WE are simultaneously LOW |
| VCC | Power Supply | 5 V nominal supply pin; decoupling capacitor placement critical for maintaining tRC stability under fast switching |
| GND | Ground Reference | Common return path for all I/O and core logic; requires low-inductance connection to minimize ground bounce |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 55 ns Access Time | Enables direct interfacing with 12–18 MHz microcontrollers without wait states or glue logic |
| Automatic CE Power-down | Reduces standby current to ≤5 µA without software intervention or external power-gating circuitry |
| TTL-Compatible I/O | Eliminates level translators when connecting to legacy 5 V microprocessor buses (e.g., 68000, 8086) |
| Three-State Output Drivers | Prevents bus contention in multi-device parallel memory systems; supports shared data bus architectures |
| Industrial Temperature Rating | Validated operation from –40°C to +85°C ensures reliability in uncontrolled ambient environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar static RAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IS62C256AL-55QLI | Same 32K × 8 organization and 55 ns speed, but uses 28-pin SOJ package and has higher ISB2 (≤10 µA) | SOJ footprint incompatible with CY62256LL-55ZXI's narrow SOIC layout; requires PCB redesign | Select only if SOJ mounting is already standardized in production line and 5 µA standby savings are noncritical |
| AS6C4008-55PCN | 55 ns access, 32K × 8, but rated only for commercial temperature (0°C to +70°C) and lacks automatic CE power-down | Not suitable for industrial environments; requires external power-gating logic for low-power modes | Acceptable only for cost-sensitive consumer-grade equipment where ambient temperature remains tightly controlled |
Compared with IS62C256AL-55QLI and AS6C4008-55PCN, CY62256LL-55ZXI uniquely combines industrial temperature qualification, automatic CE-triggered power-down, and narrow SOIC packaging-making it the only option that preserves both thermal robustness and board-space efficiency without design compromise.

FAQ
Is CY62256LL-55ZXI pin-compatible with the original CY62256-55ZI?
Yes. CY62256LL-55ZXI shares identical pinout, electrical signaling, and timing specifications with CY62256-55ZI, differing only in lower standby current (5 µA vs. 28 µW ≈ 5.6 µA at 5 V) and industrial temperature qualification. No PCB or firmware changes are required for migration.
Does this device require an external clock or refresh circuitry?
No. CY62256LL-55ZXI is a fully static RAM: it retains data indefinitely as long as VCC is applied and requires no clock input or periodic refresh cycles. All timing is controlled solely by CE, OE, and WE signal edges per the documented switching waveforms.
Can CY62256LL-55ZXI operate reliably at 4.5 V supply voltage?
Yes. The device is fully characterized down to 4.5 V across –40°C to +85°C, with guaranteed 55 ns tRC and tAA, VOH ≥2.4 V, and VOL ≤0.4 V under worst-case conditions. No derating or timing margin adjustment is needed at minimum VCC.
What is the maximum capacitive load supported on I/O lines?
The AC specifications assume 100 pF total load capacitance (including PCB trace and scope probe). For reliable 55 ns operation, keep total I/O net capacitance ≤100 pF; exceeding this increases tDOE and tHZOE beyond specification limits and may cause setup/hold violations.
