Product details
Overview
CY62256VNLL-70ZXCT from Cypress Semiconductor is a 256-Kbit (32 K × 8) CMOS static RAM with 70 ns access time, 2.7 V to 3.6 V supply range, and industrial temperature rating (–40 °C to +85 °C), housed in a Pb-free 28-pin narrow SOIC package. It supports TTL-compatible I/O, automatic CE-controlled power-down (<5 µA standby), and tristate bidirectional data lines for embedded microcontroller memory expansion.
For engineers reviewing the CY62256VNLL-70ZXCT datasheet, CY62256VNLL-70ZXCT pinout, CY62256VNLL-70ZXCT application, or CY62256VNLL-70ZXCT equivalent, key selection criteria include its 70 ns read cycle time, low-voltage operation, CE/OE/WE control logic compatibility with 8-bit microcontrollers, and verified industrial-grade reliability across extended temperature ranges.
Technical Context
The CY62256VNLL-70ZXCT implements a fully static 32K × 8 memory array with asynchronous parallel interface. Its dual-control enable architecture uses active-low CE for chip selection and active-low OE for output gating, enabling seamless bank expansion without external logic. The WE signal determines read/write direction on shared I/O0–I/O7 pins.
Power management relies on automatic CE-driven power-down mode, reducing ICC to ≤5 µA (ISB2) when CE is high and inputs are at valid logic levels. All timing parameters-including tAA (70 ns), tDOE (35 ns), and tPD (70 ns)-are guaranteed over full industrial voltage (2.7–3.6 V) and temperature (–40 °C to +85 °C) ranges.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory size | 256 Kbit (32 K × 8) - provides 32,768 bytes of byte-addressable SRAM for 8-bit MCU systems |
| Access time | 70 ns - ensures compatibility with 14 MHz Z80, 8051, and similar legacy microcontrollers |
| Supply voltage | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - supports single-supply operation in battery-backed or low-voltage industrial systems |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AS6C256-70SCN | 70 ns access, 2.7–3.6 V, but only commercial temp (0 °C to +70 °C); ISB2 = 10 µA | Lacks industrial temperature qualification; unsuitable for uncontrolled ambient deployments | Select only for cost-sensitive consumer-grade equipment with ambient temperature control |
| IS62WV2568BLL-70NLI | 70 ns access, wider voltage (2.5–3.6 V), lower ISB2 (≤1 µA), but requires 2.5 V minimum | Higher sensitivity to brown-out conditions below 2.5 V; not backward-compatible with 2.7 V-only designs | Prefer for new designs targeting ultra-low-power battery operation with regulated 2.5 V rails |
Compared with AS6C256-70SCN and IS62WV2568BLL-70NLI, the CY62256VNLL-70ZXCT uniquely balances industrial temperature support, 2.7 V minimum operation, and proven field reliability in legacy industrial systems-making it the preferred choice for retrofit and long-lifecycle deployments.

FAQ
Is CY62256VNLL-70ZXCT pin-compatible with older CY62256-70PC versions?
Yes-CY62256VNLL-70ZXCT uses the identical 28-pin narrow SOIC footprint and pinout as CY62256-70PC, including matching A0–A14, I/O0–I/O7, CE, OE, WE, VCC, and GND assignments. No PCB layout changes are required for migration, though voltage and temperature specifications differ.
Does this SRAM require an external clock or refresh circuitry?
No-CY62256VNLL-70ZXCT is a fully static RAM with no internal refresh requirement. It retains data indefinitely as long as VCC remains within 2.7–3.6 V and CE is held high during standby. Clock signals are not used or supported.
What is the maximum data retention voltage (VDR) and how does it affect backup operation?
The guaranteed minimum VDR is 1.4 V. When VCC drops to ≥1.4 V and CE is high, the device enters data retention mode with ICCDR ≤6 µA (industrial grade). This enables >1 year of retention on a 0.1 F supercapacitor charged to 3.3 V, assuming leakage-dominated discharge.
Can I/O pins be driven while CE is high and OE is low?
No-when CE is high, the device is deselected and all I/O pins enter high-impedance state regardless of OE or WE status. Driving I/O pins externally during CE high violates the absolute maximum rating for output current and may cause latch-up or data corruption.
