Product details
Overview
CY62256LL-70SNXC from Cypress Semiconductor is a 256K-bit (32K × 8) CMOS static RAM with 70 ns access time, 4.5–5.5 V operation, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). It features TTL-compatible I/O, automatic CE-controlled power-down (28 µW max standby), and three-state outputs for bus sharing in embedded memory subsystems used in industrial controllers and legacy instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the CY62256LL-70SNXC datasheet, CY62256LL-70SNXC pinout, CY62256LL-70SNXC application, or CY62256LL-70SNXC equivalent, key selection criteria include verified 70 ns read cycle time, low 28 µW standby current at 85°C, CE/OE/WE control logic compatibility with 8-bit microcontrollers, and narrow SOIC-28 package footprint for space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The CY62256LL-70SNXC implements a full CMOS 32K × 8 SRAM array with dual-decode architecture (512 × 512), integrated sense amplifiers, and input buffers supporting TTL-level inputs. Its automatic power-down activates when CE is HIGH, reducing ICC to ≤28 µW without external circuitry.
Read operations require CE and OE LOW with WE HIGH; write operations require CE and WE LOW while OE may be HIGH or LOW. All 15 address lines (A0–A14) and 8 bidirectional I/O lines are fully specified for 5V ±10% supply across –40°C to +85°C, with guaranteed tAA = 70 ns and tHZOE = 25 ns.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 32K words × 8 bits - supports byte-wide data bus interfacing with 8-bit MCUs and peripherals |
| Access Time (tAA) | 70 ns max - ensures timing compliance with 14 MHz Z80, 8051, and 68K-based systems |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5V logic rails and tolerant of ±10% regulation variation |
| Standby Current (ISB2) | 28 µW max at 85°C - enables ultra-low-power retention in battery-backed or intermittently powered systems |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade reliability without derating |
| Input/Output Compatibility | TTL-compatible - eliminates level-shifting requirements when interfacing with legacy 5V logic families |
| Package | 28-pin narrow SOIC (450-mil width) - surface-mount footprint with 1.27 mm pitch for automated assembly |
Pinout & Package
Package: 28-pin narrow SOIC (450-mil body width, 300-mil body), RoHS-compliant lead-free finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A14 | Address Input | 15-bit address bus accepting 0x0000–0x7FFF; decoded internally to select one of 32,768 locations |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Line | Tri-state I/O pins functioning as inputs during write, outputs during read, high-Z when deselected |
| CE | Chip Enable (active LOW) | Primary chip-select signal; asserts internal power-down when HIGH, enabling zero-bus-load standby |
| OE | Output Enable (active LOW) | Controls output driver enable; must be LOW for read data to appear on I/O pins |
| WE | Write Enable (active LOW) | Controls direction of I/O pins; LOW initiates write, HIGH enables read or high-Z state |
| VCC | Power Supply | +5V supply pin; decoupling capacitor required within 10 mm for stable 70 ns operation |
| GND | Ground Reference | Signal and power ground return; separate from system analog ground per layout guidelines |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automatic CE Power-Down | Reduces ICC to ≤28 µW without external control logic or sleep-mode software overhead |
| Three-State Output Drivers | Enable direct connection to shared 8-bit data buses without external transceivers or bus switches |
| 70 ns Guaranteed Access | Meets timing budgets of legacy 8-bit and 16-bit microcontrollers operating up to 14 MHz |
| Industrial Temperature Range | Validated operation from –40°C to +85°C with no parameter derating or thermal margin loss |
| TTL-Compatible I/O | Accepts standard 0.8 V / 2.0 V logic thresholds and drives 1.0 mA / 2.1 mA loads directly |

Use Value: 70 ns tAA guarantees setup/hold margins for 14 MHz pattern clocks, eliminating timing violations in production test fixtures. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar static RAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISSI IS62C256AL-70QLI | Same 32K × 8 organization, 70 ns speed, but 2.7–5.5 V supply range and 35 µA ISB2 (vs. 28 µW) | Supports mixed-voltage systems; higher standby current limits use in ultra-low-power battery hold-up | Select if wider VCC range or availability from alternate source is prioritized over lowest ISB2 |
| ON Semiconductor MCM62C256CJ-70 | Same pinout and timing, but rated only for commercial temp (0°C to 70°C) and higher ISB2 (100 µA) | Suitable for lab-grade or non-industrial equipment; not qualified for extended temperature operation | Select only for cost-sensitive commercial applications where industrial temp rating is unnecessary |
Compared with IS62C256AL-70QLI and MCM62C256CJ-70, the CY62256LL-70SNXC delivers the lowest verified standby power (28 µW) and full industrial temperature support in a drop-in narrow SOIC-28 package-critical for thermally constrained or battery-retained embedded systems.

FAQ
Is CY62256LL-70SNXC pin-compatible with the original CY62256-70SN?
Yes. CY62256LL-70SNXC uses identical 28-pin narrow SOIC pinout, address/data/control signal mapping, and electrical timing specifications as the base CY62256-70SN. The "LL" suffix denotes lower standby current (28 µW vs. 5 mW), and "XC" indicates industrial temperature grade (–40°C to +85°C), both fully backward-compatible.
Does this SRAM require an external clock or refresh circuitry?
No. As a static RAM, CY62256LL-70SNXC retains data indefinitely while powered and selected, with no refresh cycles, clocks, or periodic access required. Data persistence relies solely on stable VCC and CE control-no timing controller or DRAM-style refresh logic is needed.
Can OE and WE be tied together for simplified control?
No. OE and WE serve distinct functions: OE controls output driver enable (read data visibility), while WE controls write/read mode. Tying them together prevents independent control of read enable and write strobe, violating timing requirements for valid read cycles and risking bus contention during writes.
What is the maximum sustained data throughput achievable?
With 70 ns cycle time and no wait states, CY62256LL-70SNXC supports up to 14.3 MB/s sustained throughput (1/70 ns × 8 bits). Real-world throughput depends on bus arbitration, controller overhead, and CE/OE assertion timing-but the device itself imposes no bottleneck beyond its 70 ns tRC specification.
