Product details
Overview
CY62256NLL-70SNXCT 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 TTL-compatible I/O, automatic CE-controlled power-down, and tristate outputs for memory expansion in embedded controllers and instrumentation systems.
For engineers reviewing the CY62256NLL-70SNXCT datasheet, CY62256NLL-70SNXCT pinout, CY62256NLL-70SNXCT application, or CY62256NLL-70SNXCT equivalent, key selection criteria include standby current (≤10 µA), active power (≤275 mW), 28-pin SOIC package compatibility, and CE/OE/WE control logic for multi-chip memory mapping.
Technical Context
The CY62256NLL-70SNXCT implements a full CMOS 32K × 8 SRAM array with separate address decoding (A0–A14), bidirectional data I/O0–I/O7, and three independent control inputs: CE (chip enable), OE (output enable), and WE (write enable). Its architecture supports asynchronous read/write cycles without clocks or refresh circuitry.
Power management is handled via automatic CE-driven power-down mode, reducing ICC to ≤10 µA (ISB2) when CE is HIGH and inputs are at valid logic levels. The device maintains data retention down to 2.0 V VCC and exhibits 5 ns output enable/disable timing (tLZOE/tHZOE) under 5 pF load conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory size | 256 Kbit (32 K × 8) - supports byte-wide addressing without external data multiplexing |
| Access time | 70 ns - defines maximum clock rate for synchronous interface designs using this SRAM |
| VCC range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5 V TTL/CMOS logic rails and legacy industrial power supplies |
| Standby current (ISB2) | ≤10 µA at –40 °C to +85 °C - enables low-power sleep modes in battery-backed systems |
| Operating current (ICC) | ≤50 mA max - determines thermal budget and regulator sizing for continuous read/write operation |
| Data retention voltage | 2.0 V minimum - allows data hold during brown-out or backup-battery switchover |
| Input capacitance | 6 pF - limits trace length and fan-out in high-speed address/data bus layouts |
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 input | 15-bit address bus supporting full 32K-word decode; no external address latching required |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional data I/O | Tristate-enabled byte-wide data path; direction controlled by OE and WE states |
| CE | Chip enable (active LOW) | Primary chip-select signal; asserts power-down mode when HIGH and disables outputs |
| OE | Output enable (active LOW) | Controls I/O pin direction: LOW = output (read), HIGH = input/tristate (write or idle) |
| WE | Write enable (active LOW) | Controls memory operation: LOW = write, HIGH = read; overlaps with CE for write initiation |
| VCC | Power supply | +5 V nominal supply; decoupling capacitor required within 10 mm of pin 28 |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return for all signals and power; must be connected to low-impedance system ground plane |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automatic CE power-down | Reduces ICC to ≤10 µA without external control logic or sleep-state sequencing |
| 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 |
| Multiple temperature grades | Industrial-grade variant (–40 °C to +85 °C) ensures reliability in factory automation and motor control enclosures |
| Pb-free packaging | Complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 3 |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SRAM 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 VCC range and higher ISB2 (25 µA) | Broader voltage support suits mixed-supply systems; higher standby current limits battery life | Select if dual-voltage operation (3.3 V/5 V) is required and 15 µA extra ISB2 is acceptable |
| ON Semiconductor MC68HC11E9CP | Not a drop-in replacement: integrated MCU with on-chip 512-byte RAM; no external 256K SRAM interface | Replaces discrete SRAM + controller with single-chip solution; requires firmware rewrite | Choose only for new designs targeting consolidation - not for SRAM-only upgrades or pin-compatible replacements |
Compared with IS62C256AL-70QLI, CY62256NLL-70SNXCT offers lower standby power and tighter industrial temp validation; versus MC68HC11E9CP, it provides pure memory functionality with zero software dependency and guaranteed timing predictability.

FAQ
Is CY62256NLL-70SNXCT pin-compatible with CY62256NLL-55?
Yes - both share identical 28-pin SOIC pinout, address/data/control signal mapping, and electrical interface. The only difference is access time: 55 ns vs. 70 ns. Systems designed for the slower variant will operate reliably with the 55 ns part, but timing-critical designs may require verification of setup/hold margins.
Does CY62256NLL-70SNXCT require an external clock or refresh circuit?
No - it is a fully static CMOS SRAM with no clock input and zero refresh requirement. Data retention is maintained as long as VCC remains ≥2.0 V and CE is held HIGH during standby. All timing is governed solely by CE, OE, and WE signal transitions.
What is the maximum data bus fan-out supported by CY62256NLL-70SNXCT I/O pins?
The I/O pins drive ±2.1 mA (IOL/IOH) at TTL levels, supporting up to 10 standard TTL loads or 20 CMOS loads per pin. For reliable 70 ns operation with 100 pF total load, trace lengths should be limited to ≤5 cm on 50 Ω impedance-controlled routing.
Can CY62256NLL-70SNXCT be used in automotive AEC-Q100 qualified systems?
The CY62256NLL-70SNXCT is rated for Automotive-A grade (–40 °C to +85 °C), which aligns with AEC-Q100 Grade 3 stress testing requirements. However, it is not formally AEC-Q100 certified - qualification documentation must be obtained separately from Infineon for safety-critical automotive deployments.
