Product details
Overview
CY62256VNLL-70ZRXE from Cypress Semiconductor is a 256K-bit (32K × 8) CMOS static RAM with 70 ns access time, operating across 2.7V–3.6V supply and supporting commercial (0°C to 70°C), industrial (–40°C to 85°C), and automotive-E (–40°C to 125°C) temperature grades. It features TTL-compatible I/O, automatic CE-controlled power-down (<5 μA standby for commercial grade), and tristate outputs enabled by OE/WE/CE logic - deployed in embedded controllers, industrial PLCs, and automotive infotainment memory buffers.
For engineers reviewing the CY62256VNLL-70ZRXE datasheet, CY62256VNLL-70ZRXE pinout, CY62256VNLL-70ZRXE application, or CY62256VNLL-70ZRXE equivalent, key selection criteria include 70 ns tAA timing, 28-pin narrow SOIC package compatibility, low-voltage 2.7V–3.6V operation, and dual-mode CE/OE-controlled read/write sequencing for legacy bus interfacing.
Technical Context
The CY62256VNLL-70ZRXE implements a fully static 32K × 8 memory array with asynchronous parallel interface, using CMOS technology to balance speed and power. Its control architecture relies on three active-low signals: CE (chip enable), OE (output enable), and WE (write enable), enabling precise cycle control without clocks or refresh circuitry.
It supports three distinct operational states: active read (CE=LOW, OE=LOW, WE=HIGH), active write (CE=LOW, WE=LOW), and automatic power-down (CE=HIGH), reducing ICC to ≤5 μA (commercial) or ≤130 μA (automotive-E). Address decoding covers A0–A14 (15-bit), and data I/O lines I/O0–I/O7 are bidirectional with tristate capability.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 32K × 8 bits - supports byte-wide data buses without external multiplexing |
| Access Time (tAA) | 70 ns max - ensures compatibility with 14.3 MHz system clocks in legacy microcontroller interfaces |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - interoperable with 3.3 V LVTTL and mixed-voltage industrial backplanes |
| Standby Current (ISB2) | ≤5 μA (commercial), ≤130 μA (automotive-E) - enables battery-backed retention in safety-critical systems |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +125°C (automotive-E grade) - qualified for under-hood automotive ECUs |
| I/O Compatibility | TTL input thresholds and output drive (IOH = –1.0 mA, IOL = 2.1 mA) - direct drop-in replacement for older 5 V SRAMs with level-shifting |
| Data Retention Voltage | VDR ≥ 1.4 V - sustains memory state during brown-out conditions down to 1.4 V VCC |
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 accepting full 32K-word range; no internal latching - requires stable address during CE assertion |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Bus | Tristate-capable lines; function as inputs during write, outputs during read, high-Z when OE or CE inactive |
| CE | Chip Enable (active LOW) | Primary device select; drives automatic power-down when HIGH, disabling all internal circuitry except retention logic |
| OE | Output Enable (active LOW) | Controls I/O direction only when CE is active; HIGH forces tristate regardless of WE state |
| WE | Write Enable (active LOW) | Determines R/W mode: LOW enables write (data latched on rising edge of WE or CE), HIGH enables read |
| VCC | Power Supply | Single 2.7–3.6 V supply; decoupling capacitor required at pin 28 per layout guidelines |
| GND | Ground Reference | Pin 14 serves as primary ground return; must be connected before VCC during power-up |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automatic CE Power-Down | Reduces ICC to ≤5 μA (commercial) with no external control - eliminates need for sleep-state software overhead |
| 70 ns Access with No Wait States | Enables zero-wait-state operation with 8051, Z80, and ARM7-based microcontrollers running ≤14 MHz |
| Wide Temperature Grade Options | Single footprint supports commercial, industrial, and automotive-E variants - simplifies BOM consolidation across product tiers |
| CMOS + TTL Interface Compatibility | Accepts TTL-level inputs and drives TTL loads directly - avoids level translators in mixed-signal legacy designs |
| Data Retention at 1.4 V | Maintains stored data during deep brown-out or backup-battery operation - critical for automotive event logging |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Memory Buffer | Automotive Instrument Cluster Display Cache |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Stores real-time sensor fusion results and UI frame buffers in programmable logic controllers with deterministic scan cycles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Asynchronous byte-wide SRAM providing non-refreshed, low-latency storage for cyclic data exchange between CPU and I/O modules.

Use Scenario: Caches rendered gauge graphics and vehicle status messages in digital instrument clusters requiring fast display updates. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standalone display memory buffer interfaced directly to MCU's parallel bus, synchronized via CE/OE strobes. Use Value: Automotive-E grade (–40°C to +125°C) and 1.4 V data retention ensure reliable operation during engine start-up and thermal cycling. |
| Legacy Medical Device Data Log | Avionics Panel Control State Storage |
Use Scenario: Captures time-stamped diagnostic events in portable ECG monitors where firmware upgrade cycles exceed hardware lifetime. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Nonvolatile-adjacent volatile memory holding last 24 hours of waveform metadata prior to flash transfer. Use Value: Low 5 μA standby current (commercial grade) extends battery life in Class II devices without compromising data integrity. |
Use Scenario: Holds panel configuration, button state history, and fault flags in certified cockpit displays with strict DO-254 timing constraints. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Deterministic-access SRAM used for control-plane state mirroring, isolated from main processor bus via dedicated address decode. Use Value: 28-pin SOIC footprint and 70 ns timing meet avionics PCB routing density and worst-case timing margin requirements. |
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 higher ISB2 (10 μA commercial) | Broader voltage support suits mixed 3.3 V/5 V systems; not automotive-qualified | Select if board already uses 5 V peripherals and requires single-supply flexibility |
| ON Semiconductor MC68HC11F1M20 | Integrated 256-byte on-chip RAM only - no external 256K option; requires external memory expansion logic | Not a drop-in replacement; necessitates redesign of address/data bus and control logic | Only viable for new designs targeting HC11 derivatives with tight cost constraints and no legacy timing requirements |
Compared with IS62C256AL-70QLI, CY62256VNLL-70ZRXE offers tighter automotive qualification and lower standby current; versus MC68HC11F1M20, it delivers full external memory capacity without MCU-specific bus timing dependencies or added glue logic.

FAQ
Is CY62256VNLL-70ZRXE pin-compatible with the original CY62256N-70PC?
Yes - CY62256VNLL-70ZRXE uses the identical 28-pin narrow SOIC footprint and pinout as CY62256N-70PC, including matching A0–A14, I/O0–I/O7, CE, OE, WE, VCC, and GND assignments. The 'VN' suffix denotes voltage-range and process enhancements, not physical layout changes.
Does this SRAM require an external clock or refresh signal?
No - CY62256VNLL-70ZRXE is a fully static RAM with no clock input or refresh requirement. Data retention is maintained indefinitely as long as VCC remains within specification and CE is held LOW during active use; CE HIGH triggers automatic low-power retention mode.
What is the maximum data rate supported in burst read mode?
This device does not support burst or sequential read modes. Each access is independent and asynchronous: address setup, CE/OE assertion, and data valid timing are governed by tAA (70 ns), tACE (70 ns), and tDOE (35 ns); sustained throughput is limited to ~14.3 million words per second under ideal conditions.
Can CY62256VNLL-70ZRXE operate reliably at 2.5 V?
No - the absolute minimum VCC is 2.7 V per datasheet specifications. Operation below 2.7 V violates the guaranteed operating range and may result in data corruption, increased access time variability, or failure to enter power-down mode; 2.5 V is outside specification and unsupported.
