Product details
Overview
CY62256NLL-70SNXAT from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress) is a 256-Kbit (32 K × 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 automatic CE-controlled power-down (82.5 µW max standby), TTL-compatible I/O, and tristate outputs for memory expansion in embedded controllers and instrumentation systems.
For engineers reviewing the CY62256NLL-70SNXAT datasheet, CY62256NLL-70SNXAT pinout, CY62256NLL-70SNXAT application, or CY62256NLL-70SNXAT equivalent, key selection criteria include its 70 ns read cycle time, 32K × 8 organization, low ISB2 standby current (≤10 µA), and support for CE/OE/WE control logic in multi-chip memory architectures.
Technical Context
The CY62256NLL-70SNXAT implements a full CMOS 32K × 8 SRAM array with independent row/column decoding, sense amplifiers, and input/output buffers. Its control architecture relies on three active-low signals-CE, OE, and WE-to manage chip selection, output enable, and write/read mode switching without external latching.
Power management is handled via automatic CE-driven power-down: when CE is HIGH, internal circuitry enters ultra-low-power retention mode (ISB2 ≤10 µA), reducing consumption by >99.9% versus active operation. All inputs and outputs meet TTL voltage thresholds and drive specifications under 5 V ±10% supply conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory size | 256 Kbit (32 K × 8) - supports byte-wide data bus interfacing without address multiplexing |
| Access time | 70 ns - defines maximum clock rate for synchronous read cycles in microcontroller-based systems |
| VCC range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5 V logic rails and tolerant of supply ripple |
| Standby current (ISB2) | ≤10 µA at –40 °C to +85 °C - enables battery-backed retention in industrial logging devices |
| Operating current (ICC) | ≤50 mA at fMAX - limits thermal load in dense PCB layouts with multiple memory devices |
| Input capacitance | 6 pF - minimizes loading on address/data bus drivers in high-speed parallel interfaces |
| Data retention voltage | 2.0 V minimum - allows operation down to brown-out levels while preserving memory contents |
Pinout & Package
Package: 28-pin narrow SOIC (300-mil), RoHS-compliant, surface-mountable with standard reflow profile.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A14 | Address inputs | 15-bit address bus supporting full 32K-word addressing; no multiplexing required |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional data lines | Tristate-capable pins shared for read/write; require external bus arbitration in multi-device systems |
| CE | Chip enable (active LOW) | Primary selection signal; asserts power-down mode when deasserted (HIGH) |
| OE | Output enable (active LOW) | Controls I/O direction: LOW = output, HIGH = high-impedance input mode |
| WE | Write enable (active LOW) | Determines operation mode: LOW = write, HIGH = read (when CE and OE are active) |
| VCC | Power supply | 5 V nominal supply; decoupling capacitor required within 10 mm of pin 28 |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all signals; must be connected to low-impedance system ground plane |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automatic CE power-down | Reduces standby power to ≤10 µA without external control logic or sleep-mode firmware overhead |
| TTL-compatible I/O | Eliminates level-shifting requirements when interfacing with legacy 5 V microcontrollers and FPGAs |
| Tristate output drivers | Enables direct connection to shared data buses without external bus transceivers |
| CMOS process technology | Delivers optimal balance of 70 ns speed and <275 mW active power dissipation at full frequency |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AS6C4008-70SCN | Same 32K × 8 organization and 70 ns speed, but 2.7–3.6 V only; no 5 V tolerance | Requires separate 3.3 V rail; unsuitable for mixed-voltage 5 V systems | Select only if system uses 3.3 V core logic and board space constraints favor smaller TSOP package |
| IS62WV2568BLL-70NLI | 256K × 8 (larger density), 70 ns, 2.7–3.6 V; includes BYTE# control for x8/x16 mode | Higher capacity but incompatible voltage range and pinout; requires PCB redesign | Choose when future-proofing for larger memory footprint and migrating to 3.3 V architecture |
Compared with AS6C4008-70SCN and IS62WV2568BLL-70NLI, the CY62256NLL-70SNXAT uniquely supports 5 V operation with industrial temperature rating and automatic CE power-down-making it the only drop-in replacement for legacy 5 V embedded designs requiring minimal BOM change.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by CY62256NLL-70SNXAT?
The CY62256NLL-70SNXAT has a 70 ns access time, corresponding to a maximum read cycle frequency of approximately 14.3 MHz. This is derived from tRC = 70 ns, and the device does not include internal clock circuitry-it operates asynchronously using CE, OE, and WE timing controls per the datasheet switching characteristics table.
Does CY62256NLL-70SNXAT support battery backup operation?
Yes-the device supports data retention down to VCC = 2.0 V with typical ICCDR of 0.1 µA, enabling use with coin-cell batteries or supercapacitors during main power loss. Retention mode activates automatically when CE is HIGH and VCC remains ≥2.0 V, preserving stored data without external control signals.
Can CY62256NLL-70SNXAT be used in place of CY62256NLL-55?
Yes, as a functional and pin-compatible upgrade-both share identical pinout, voltage range, and command protocol. The -70 version has slower timing (70 ns vs. 55 ns) but identical DC characteristics and power behavior. System timing margins must be verified, especially in high-frequency read/write burst scenarios where the 15 ns penalty may affect setup/hold compliance.
Is CY62256NLL-70SNXAT RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes-this part number (ending in "XAT") denotes Infineon's RoHS-compliant, lead-free narrow SOIC packaging. The device meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 3 and is qualified for standard Pb-free reflow profiles with peak temperature up to 260 °C, as confirmed in the official Infineon ordering information and package diagrams.
