Product details
Overview
CY7C027-20AXI from Cypress Semiconductor is a 32K × 16 true dual-port static RAM with asynchronous operation, 20 ns access time, 5 V supply, and 100-pin TQFP package. It enables simultaneous independent read/write access to the same memory location by two processors, supporting interprocessor communication in real-time embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the CY7C027-20AXI datasheet, CY7C027-20AXI pinout, CY7C027-20AXI application, or CY7C027-20AXI equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-port arbitration logic, on-chip semaphores, BUSY/INT flag signaling, and master/slave expandability for 32-bit bus architectures.
Technical Context
The device implements fully asynchronous dual-port architecture with separate address, data, and control buses per port (left/right), enabling concurrent access without external synchronization. On-chip arbitration resolves contention via BUSY flag assertion and semaphore latches-eight shared registers controlled exclusively by one port at a time.
It supports automatic per-port power-down via independent CE0/CE1 enable logic, with three standby current modes (ISB1–ISB4) depending on TTL/CMOS input levels. The M/S pin configures master/slave behavior for seamless 32-bit expansion without discrete glue logic.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-port SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IDT70V27L-20PF | 32K × 16, 20 ns, 3.3 V supply, 80-pin TQFP | Requires level-shifting for 5 V systems; lower standby current (10 µA) | Select when migrating to 3.3 V infrastructure and board space is constrained |
| ISSI IS61WV51216BLL-20NLI | 512K × 16, 20 ns, 3.3 V supply, 100-pin TQFP | Higher density but incompatible voltage; lacks M/S pin and semaphore logic | Choose only if memory size is primary constraint and arbitration is handled externally |
Compared with IDT70V27L-20PF and IS61WV51216BLL-20NLI, CY7C027-20AXI uniquely retains 5 V compatibility, integrated semaphores, and master/slave expansion-critical for legacy industrial and avionics upgrades where voltage and feature parity matter more than density.

FAQ
What is the function of the M/S pin on CY7C027-20AXI?
The M/S (Master/Slave) pin configures the device for 32-bit or wider memory expansion: HIGH selects master mode (drives arbitration signals), LOW selects slave mode (responds to master). This eliminates external logic for multi-device bus widening and is essential for building scalable dual-port memory subsystems without increasing PCB complexity.
How does the semaphore logic operate in CY7C027-20AXI?
The device contains eight dedicated semaphore latches accessible via SEML/SEMR pins. When one port asserts semaphore enable, it gains exclusive control of a latch to signal resource ownership (e.g., shared buffer access). The other port reads the latch state to determine availability-enabling lock-free, deterministic software handshaking without polling overhead.
Can CY7C027-20AXI retain data during power loss?
Yes-when CE is held HIGH within VCC to VCC – 0.2 V and VCC ≥ 2.0 V, the device enters data retention mode with guaranteed operation down to 2 V. Typical retention current is 1.5 mA at 2 V, enabling integration with coin-cell backup circuits for nonvolatile state preservation in industrial controllers.
What is the difference between ISB1, ISB2, ISB3, and ISB4 standby currents?
ISB1 (both ports TTL-level CE) = 45 mA typical; ISB2 (one port TTL-level) = 110 mA; ISB3 (both ports CMOS-level CE) = 0.05 mA; ISB4 (one port CMOS-level) = 100 mA. ISB3 delivers ultra-low power for battery-backed retention; ISB1 suits systems where CE inputs remain at TTL logic levels during sleep.
