Product details
Overview
CY6264-55SNXCT from Cypress Semiconductor is an 8K × 8 (64 Kbit) CMOS static RAM with 55 ns access time, TTL-compatible I/O, and dual chip enable (CE1 active LOW, CE2 active HIGH) for flexible memory expansion in embedded systems. It operates at 5 V ±10%, supports commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C), and features automatic power-down via CE1, reducing standby current to 15 mA.
For engineers reviewing the CY6264-55SNXCT datasheet, CY6264-55SNXCT pinout, CY6264-55SNXCT application, or CY6264-55SNXCT equivalent, key selection criteria include access timing consistency under 55 ns, low-power deselected operation, SOIC-28 package compatibility, and support for parallel bus interfacing in legacy microcontroller systems.
Technical Context
The CY6264-55SNXCT implements a fully static 8192 × 8-bit memory array with three-state bidirectional I/O drivers controlled by OE and WE. Its dual CE architecture enables hierarchical memory decoding-CE1 selects the device while CE2 provides polarity-matched gating for multi-chip configurations.
Write operations require simultaneous CE1 = LOW, CE2 = HIGH, and WE = LOW; reads occur when CE1 = LOW, CE2 = HIGH, OE = LOW, and WE = HIGH. The device maintains high-impedance I/O states during deselection or output disable, ensuring clean bus sharing without external isolation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 8K × 8 (65,536 bits), enabling direct byte-addressable access without banking logic |
| Access Time | 55 ns max - guarantees deterministic read latency for 18 MHz bus timing budgets |
| VCC Supply | 5 V ±10% - compatible with standard TTL/CMOS logic rails and legacy 5 V system designs |
| Standby Current | 15 mA max (ISB2) - enables low-power hold mode during CPU idle cycles without external control |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to +70°C - validated for commercial-grade industrial control panels and instrumentation |
| Input/Output Compatibility | TTL-compatible VIH/VIL and VOH/VOL - eliminates level-shifting requirements on 5 V microprocessor buses |
| Package | 28-pin SOIC (300-mil body, SN28 footprint) - supports automated SMT assembly and board-level repair |
Pinout & Package
Package: 28-pin narrow-body SOIC (300-mil width, SN28 outline), RoHS-compliant (Pb-free), 450-mil overall length.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A12 | Address Inputs | 13-bit address bus supporting full 8K-word decoding; no external address latching required |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Bus | Three-state CMOS I/O pins shared for read/write; high-impedance when CE1 or OE inactive |
| CE1 | Active-LOW Chip Enable | Primary selection signal; asserts automatic power-down (ISB2 ≤15 mA) when HIGH |
| CE2 | Active-HIGH Chip Enable | Secondary enable for cascaded memory banks; must be HIGH for any operation |
| OE | Active-LOW Output Enable | Controls data bus direction: LOW enables read outputs; HIGH forces high-Z regardless of CE state |
| WE | Active-LOW Write Enable | Defines write cycle boundary; LOW with valid CE conditions initiates data latch into addressed location |
| VCC, GND | Power Supply | Single 5 V supply; decoupling required within 10 mm of pins 14 (VCC) and 15 (GND) |
| NC | No Connect | Pin 13 is unconnected - must remain floating; not usable as spare I/O or ground |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual Chip Enable (CE1/CE2) | Enables hierarchical memory mapping across multiple CY6264 devices without external logic gates |
| Automatic Power-Down | Reduces ISB2 to 15 mA at VCC = 5 V when CE1 = HIGH - eliminates need for external sleep controllers |
| TTL-Compatible I/O | Direct interface to 80Cxx, Z80, and 68000-family microprocessors without level translators |
| Alpha Particle Immunity | Die coat protection ensures reliable operation in radiation-prone environments like medical imaging subsystems |

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-55PLI | 32K × 8 organization, 55 ns access, same SOIC-28, but requires single CE (active LOW) and no CE2 | Larger density simplifies memory mapping but lacks CE2-based bank selection for multi-device hierarchies | Select when board space permits larger memory and CE2 functionality is unused |
| Renesas R1LV064A-55L-JE | 64K × 1 organization, 55 ns, SOIC-32, requires external data bus multiplexing for byte access | Requires 8× more address lines and glue logic to emulate 8K × 8 behavior | Choose only if migrating to higher-density architectures with redesign allowance |
Compared with IS62C256AL-55PLI and R1LV064A-55L-JE, the CY6264-55SNXCT uniquely delivers pin-compatible 8K × 8 density with dual CE support and zero-bus-glue integration-critical for drop-in replacement in legacy 8-bit and 16-bit controller designs.

FAQ
Is CY6264-55SNXCT compatible with 3.3 V systems?
No. The CY6264-55SNXCT is specified only for 5 V ±10% operation (4.5 V to 5.5 V). Its TTL-compatible inputs require ≥2.2 V for VIH and its outputs deliver VOH ≥2.4 V at IOH = –4 mA - it cannot reliably interface with 3.3 V logic without level translation. Operating outside the 5 V range risks undefined behavior and violates maximum ratings.
What is the function of the NC pin (Pin 13)?
Pin 13 is designated NC (No Connect) in the official pinout and has no internal connection. It must remain electrically floating - neither tied to VCC nor GND. Routing traces or vias to this pin may cause mechanical stress or solder bridging; the pad should be left unconnected per Cypress design guidelines.
Does CY6264-55SNXCT support battery backup operation?
No. The device lacks built-in battery-switching circuitry or VBAT pin. While its low ISB2 current (15 mA) reduces drain during hold, sustained operation below VCC min (4.5 V) violates specifications. For battery-backed SRAM, Cypress offers the CY14B101Q (nvSRAM), which integrates nonvolatile storage and automatic store/restore.
How does CE1 power-down interact with CE2 and OE states?
When CE1 is HIGH, the device enters automatic power-down regardless of CE2 or OE state - ICC drops to ISB2 (≤15 mA). CE2 and OE have no effect in this mode. Only when CE1 goes LOW does CE2 polarity (must be HIGH) and OE state determine read/write activity. This decouples power control from bus protocol timing.
