Product details
Overview
CY62256VNLL-70ZXI from Cypress Semiconductor is a 256-Kbit (32 K × 8) CMOS static RAM with 70 ns access time, operating across 2.7 V–3.6 V supply, and rated for industrial temperature range (–40 °C to +85 °C). It features TTL-compatible I/O, automatic CE-controlled power-down (<0.1 µA standby), and tristate bidirectional data bus (I/O0–I/O7) for embedded memory expansion in microcontroller-based systems.
For engineers reviewing the CY62256VNLL-70ZXI datasheet, CY62256VNLL-70ZXI pinout, CY62256VNLL-70ZXI application, or CY62256VNLL-70ZXI equivalent, key selection criteria include its 28-pin narrow SOIC package, low-voltage operation, guaranteed 70 ns read/write timing, and compatibility with legacy 32K×8 SRAM designs requiring industrial-grade reliability.
Technical Context
The CY62256VNLL-70ZXI implements a fully static 32K × 8 memory array using CMOS technology, with independent active-low chip enable (CE), output enable (OE), and write enable (WE) controls. Its architecture supports seamless memory expansion via CE daisy-chaining and eliminates external wait-state logic due to deterministic 70 ns tAA and tRC timing.
All address (A0–A14) and data (I/O0–I/O7) lines are TTL-compatible with VIH ≥ 2.2 V and VOL ≤ 0.4 V at 2.7 V supply. The device enters automatic power-down mode when CE is HIGH, reducing ICC to ≤0.1 µA (ISB2) while retaining data down to 1.4 V VCC - critical for battery-backed retention in industrial controllers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory size | 256 Kbit (32 K × 8) - provides byte-wide addressing for 8-bit microcontrollers without data bus multiplexing |
| Access time | 70 ns - guarantees full-speed operation with 14.3 MHz bus clocks and no wait states |
| VCC range | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - compatible with 3.3 V systems and tolerant of brown-out conditions down to 2.7 V |
| Standby current | 0.1 µA (ISB2, industrial temp) - enables multi-year battery backup in nonvolatile storage applications |
| Data retention voltage | 1.4 V minimum - ensures reliable data hold during deep sleep or power-fail scenarios |

Pinout & Package
Package: 28-pin narrow SOIC (300-mil), RoHS-compliant, body width 7.62 mm, lead pitch 1.27 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A14 | Address inputs | 15-bit address bus supporting full 32K-word decoding; no external address latching required |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional data bus | Tristate-enabled I/O lines; direction controlled by OE/WE state - eliminates need for external transceivers |
| CE | Chip enable (active LOW) | Primary chip select; enables automatic power-down when HIGH - reduces system idle power by >99% |
| OE | Output enable (active LOW) | Controls I/O pin direction: LOW = outputs enabled; HIGH = high-impedance input mode |
| WE | Write enable (active LOW) | Determines operation mode: LOW = write cycle; HIGH = read cycle - supports asynchronous bus protocols |
| VCC | Power supply | Single 2.7–3.6 V supply - eliminates need for level shifters in 3.3 V domains |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all signals and power - decoupling capacitor placement critical near Pin 14 |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automatic CE power-down | Reduces standby current to 0.1 µA at +85 °C - extends battery life in always-on monitoring nodes |
| TTL-compatible I/O | VIH ≥ 2.2 V and VOL ≤ 0.4 V at 2.7 V - interoperable with legacy 5 V logic via pull-up resistors or direct interface to 3.3 V MCUs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISSI IS62WV2568BLL-70NLI | Same 256K×8 organization, 70 ns speed, but uses 2.5 V–3.6 V VCC range and has higher ISB2 (1 µA @ +85 °C) | Valid for commercial/industrial use but lacks AEC-Q100 automotive qualification | Select when lower cost and broad distributor availability outweigh marginal standby current increase |
| ON Semiconductor NVSRAM NB3L553MNR4G | Integrated EEPROM backup; 3.3 V only; slower 100 ns access; higher ICC (25 mA active) | Provides true nonvolatility without external battery - suited for infrequent-write, long-retention use cases | Choose only if data persistence through unlimited power cycles is mandatory and 30 ns timing penalty is acceptable |
Compared with IS62WV2568BLL-70NLI and NB3L553MNR4G, CY62256VNLL-70ZXI delivers superior industrial-temp standby efficiency (0.1 µA vs. 1 µA/25 mA), tighter 70 ns timing consistency, and broader voltage flexibility - making it optimal for battery-sensitive, timing-critical embedded controllers.

FAQ
Is CY62256VNLL-70ZXI compatible with 5 V logic interfaces?
No - it is strictly a 2.7–3.6 V device with TTL-compatible thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.2 V), but not 5 V tolerant. Direct connection to 5 V buses risks damage. Use level translators or ensure host MCU operates at 3.3 V with appropriate drive strength.
What is the maximum clock frequency supported for burst reads?
The device does not use a clock; it is asynchronous. With 70 ns tRC and tAA, it supports sustained random-access throughput up to ~14.3 million words per second - sufficient for ARM7/9 and Cortex-M3/M4 buses running at ≤14 MHz without wait states.
Does CY62256VNLL-70ZXI require an external backup battery for data retention?
No - it retains data down to 1.4 V VCC without external battery. However, for extended zero-power retention (>1 hour), a backup source (e.g., supercapacitor) is recommended to maintain VCC above 1.4 V during outages.
Can CE, OE, and WE be tied together for simplified control?
No - tying CE and OE together disables tristate control and prevents proper read/write separation. CE must be controlled independently to enable automatic power-down; OE must be toggled separately to manage I/O direction and bus sharing.
