Product details
Overview
CY62256NLL-55ZXA from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress) is a 256-Kbit (32 K × 8) CMOS static RAM with 55 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, and tristate outputs-used in embedded controllers, industrial PLCs, and legacy instrumentation memory buffers.
For engineers reviewing the CY62256NLL-55ZXA datasheet, CY62256NLL-55ZXA pinout, CY62256NLL-55ZXA application, or CY62256NLL-55ZXA equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 55 ns read cycle time, ≤50 mA active current at 5 V, ≤10 µA standby current (CMOS input mode), and 28-pin narrow SOIC package compatibility with legacy board layouts.
Technical Context
The CY62256NLL-55ZXA implements a fully static 32K × 8 memory array with asynchronous parallel interface. Address decoding uses 15-bit A0–A14 inputs; data I/O0–I/O7 operate bidirectionally under control of CE, OE, and WE signals. Its automatic power-down reduces ISB2 to 10 µA when CE is HIGH and inputs are at valid logic levels.
Timing is defined by strict AC parameters: tRC = 55 ns max, tAA = 55 ns max, tDOE = 25 ns max, and tPD = 55 ns max. The device supports three write modes-including WE-controlled writes with OE LOW-and guarantees data retention down to 2.0 V with ICCDR ≤ 10 µA at industrial temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 256 Kbit (32 K × 8) - provides byte-wide addressing for microcontroller data storage without external bus widening |
| Access Time | 55 ns - enables direct interfacing with 12–15 MHz 8/16-bit MCUs without wait states |
| VCC Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5 V TTL/CMOS logic rails and legacy power supplies |
| Active Current (ICC) | ≤50 mA max - limits thermal load in dense PCB layouts with multiple SRAMs |
| Standby Current (ISB2) | ≤10 µA max (CMOS inputs) - supports low-power sleep modes in battery-backed systems |
| Operating Temp | –40 °C to +85 °C - qualified for industrial automation and transportation control environments |
| Data Retention VCC | 2.0 V min - maintains stored data during brown-out or backup-battery operation |
Pinout & Package
Package: 28-pin narrow SOIC (300-mil), RoHS-compliant, surface-mountable with standard reflow profiles.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A14 | Input | 15-bit address bus - selects one of 32,768 memory locations; no internal latching required |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Input/Output | Bidirectional data bus - high-impedance when CE HIGH or OE HIGH, eliminating need for external bus transceivers |
| CE | Input/Control | Chip Enable (active LOW) - primary enable for power-down; asserts automatic ISB2 reduction when deasserted |
| OE | Input/Control | Output Enable (active LOW) - controls I/O direction; tristates outputs when HIGH to prevent bus contention |
| WE | Input/Control | Write Enable (active LOW) - initiates write cycle when CE also LOW; determines write timing reference edge |
| VCC | Power Supply | +4.5 V to +5.5 V supply - powers core logic and I/O drivers; decoupling capacitor required per datasheet layout |
| GND | Ground | Reference return path - must be connected to system ground plane with low-inductance trace |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TTL-compatible I/O | VIH = 2.2 V min, VOL = 0.4 V max - interoperates directly with 5 V microcontrollers and FPGAs without level shifters |
| Automatic CE power-down | ISB2 ≤ 10 µA at +85 °C - eliminates need for external power-gating circuitry in low-duty-cycle systems |
| Tristate output drivers | tHZOE ≤ 25 ns, tLZOE ≤ 5 ns - ensures clean bus release and fast turnaround for multi-SRAM systems |
| Industrial temperature grade | –40 °C to +85 °C operation - validated across full range with no derating of speed or current specs |
| Legacy package footprint | 28-pin narrow SOIC (300-mil) - drop-in replacement for CY62256N-55SN and similar 5 V SRAMs in existing designs |
Applications

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-55QLI | Same 32K × 8 organization, 55 ns access, but 2.7–5.5 V VCC range and 100 µA ISB2 at +85 °C | Wider voltage range suits mixed-voltage systems; higher standby current limits use in ultra-low-power sleep modes | Select if dual-supply flexibility outweighs 10× higher ISB2; verify layout compatibility with 28-pin SOIC-300 |
| Renesas R1LV256AS-55SI#S0 | Identical 55 ns speed and 4.5–5.5 V range, but only commercial temp (0 °C to +70 °C) and 20 µA ISB2 | Limited to non-industrial ambient conditions; lower standby current than CY62256NLL but not rated for extended temperature | Choose for cost-sensitive consumer-grade equipment where industrial temp qualification is unnecessary |
Compared with IS62C256AL-55QLI and R1LV256AS-55SI#S0, the CY62256NLL-55ZXA uniquely delivers industrial temperature operation *with* sub-10 µA standby current and guaranteed 55 ns timing-making it the sole option for thermally demanding, battery-backed, or long-lifecycle industrial deployments.
