Product details
Overview
CY62256VLL-70ZXIT from Cypress Semiconductor is a 256 Kbit (32K × 8) CMOS static RAM with 70 ns access time, TTL-compatible I/O, and automatic CE-controlled power-down. It operates from 2.7 V to 3.6 V across industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), features tri-state outputs, and supports memory expansion via active-low CE and OE controls. Used in embedded controllers, industrial PLCs, and legacy instrumentation requiring non-volatile SRAM backup.
For engineers reviewing the CY62256VLL-70ZXIT datasheet, CY62256VLL-70ZXIT pinout, CY62256VLL-70ZXIT application, or CY62256VLL-70ZXIT equivalent, key selection criteria include 70 ns read cycle time, 0.1 µA typical standby current (ISB2), 28-pin narrow SOIC package compatibility, and CE/OE/WE control logic timing compliance per Rev. *F specification.
Technical Context
The CY62256VLL-70ZXIT implements a 32K × 8 asynchronous SRAM array with full address decoding (A0–A14), bidirectional I/O0–I/O7 bus, and three independent control inputs: CE (chip enable), OE (output enable), and WE (write enable). All control signals are active-low and fully compatible with TTL voltage thresholds.
Its power management relies on automatic CE-driven power-down mode, reducing ICC to ≤5 µA (industrial) when CE is HIGH, while maintaining data retention down to VCC = 1.4 V. The device uses CMOS process technology for optimized speed/power trade-off and supports multiple package variants including Pb-free 28-pin narrow SOIC (ZXIT suffix).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 256 Kbit (32,768 × 8 bits); supports byte-wide data interface without external demultiplexing. |
| Access Time (tAA) | 70 ns max at VCC = 2.7–3.6 V; ensures compatibility with 14 MHz bus systems. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 3.6 V; enables direct interfacing with 3.3 V logic families and mixed-voltage designs. |
| Standby Current (ISB2) | 0.1 µA typ. / 10 µA max (industrial); enables ultra-low-power hold mode during system sleep. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C; qualified for industrial-grade reliability in harsh ambient conditions. |
| Output Drive | IOL = 2.1 mA / IOH = –1.0 mA at VCC = 2.7 V; meets TTL output loading requirements. |
| Data Retention Voltage | VDR = 1.4 V min; allows battery-backed operation using single-cell LiFePO₄ or coin cell sources. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 28-pin narrow SOIC (ZXIT suffix denotes Pb-free, industrial temperature, tape-and-reel packaging).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A14 | Address Inputs | 15-bit address bus supporting full 32K-word addressing; no internal latching required. |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Bus | Tri-state controlled by OE and CE; functions as input during write, output during read. |
| CE | Chip Enable | Active-low global select; drives automatic power-down when HIGH, disabling all outputs and core logic. |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low output gate; enables data bus drivers only when CE is also LOW. |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write strobe; initiates write cycle when CE and WE both LOW; determines R/W direction. |

Applications
| Industrial PLC Data Buffer | Medical Instrumentation Memory |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Real-time acquisition of analog sensor data in programmable logic controllers with deterministic scan cycles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Asynchronous SRAM buffer holding intermediate process values between CPU fetches and I/O module updates.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Byte-accessible memory mapped directly to microcontroller's external bus interface. Use Value: TTL-compatible I/O eliminates level shifters; 28-pin SOIC eases hand-soldering during low-volume repair operations. |
Use Scenario: Preserving door lock status, seat position, and mirror settings during vehicle ignition-off periods.

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 5 V tolerant I/O (VCC = 5 V); higher ISB2 (25 µA max). | Requires 5 V supply rail; not suitable for 3.3 V-only systems without level translation. | Select if legacy 5 V controller interface is mandatory and board space permits larger SOIC-28 footprint. |
| ON Semiconductor MC68HC11EVN | Not a drop-in replacement: integrated MCU with on-chip 256 B RAM; no external parallel bus interface. | Replaces entire controller + memory subsystem; requires firmware rewrite and PCB redesign. | Only consider for greenfield designs where integration outweighs migration cost and timing predictability loss. |
Compared with IS62C256AL-70QLI, CY62256VLL-70ZXIT offers lower standby current and native 3.3 V operation, while MC68HC11EVN trades external memory flexibility for embedded control integration-neither provides pin-for-pin or functional equivalence without hardware or software changes.

FAQ
What is the minimum VCC required to retain data in CY62256VLL-70ZXIT?
Data retention is guaranteed down to VCC = 1.4 V, as specified in the Data Retention Characteristics table (Page 5). At this voltage, ICCDR remains ≤3 µA (commercial) or ≤6 µA (industrial), enabling operation from single-cell alkaline or low-voltage supercapacitor backup sources without data loss.
Can CY62256VLL-70ZXIT be used with a 5 V microcontroller bus?
No-its I/O pins are not 5 V tolerant. Input voltage limits are –0.5 V to VCC + 0.3 V (max 3.9 V at VCC = 3.6 V). Direct connection to 5 V buses risks damage. Level-shifting circuitry or a 3.3 V–compatible controller is required for safe operation.
Does CY62256VLL-70ZXIT require an external clock signal?
No-it is an asynchronous SRAM with no clock input. All operations are controlled by edge- and level-sensitive signals: CE, OE, and WE. Timing is governed solely by setup/hold relationships defined in the Switching Characteristics table (Page 5), eliminating clock tree design complexity.
What is the thermal resistance (ΘJA) of the 28-pin narrow SOIC package?
The ΘJA (junction-to-ambient) for the narrow SOIC package is 68.45 °C/W under standard test conditions (still air, soldered on a 3 × 4.5 inch, 2-layer PCB). This value informs thermal design margining for continuous operation at maximum ambient temperature (85°C) and full ICC load (30 mA).
