Product details
Overview
CY7C1021BNL-15ZXI from Cypress Semiconductor is a 1-Mbit (64 K × 16) high-speed CMOS static RAM with 15 ns access time, industrial temperature range (–40 °C to +85 °C), 5 V ±10% supply, and automatic CE-controlled power-down mode. It supports independent byte-wide writes via BHE/ BLE control and operates in 44-pin TSOP II package for embedded memory buffering in real-time control systems.
For engineers reviewing the CY7C1021BNL-15ZXI datasheet, CY7C1021BNL-15ZXI pinout, CY7C1021BNL-15ZXI application, or CY7C1021BNL-15ZXI equivalent, key selection criteria include tAA = 15 ns read timing, ISB2 ≤ 10 mA standby current (CMOS inputs), dual-byte enable architecture, and automotive-grade thermal resistance (θJA = 76.89 °C/W in TSOP II).
Technical Context
The CY7C1021BNL-15ZXI implements a synchronous, non-volatile-independent SRAM array organized as 65,536 × 16 bits with fully decoded address logic (A0–A15). Its read/write control relies on three active-low enables: CE (chip select), OE (output enable), and WE (write enable), with separate BHE/BLE signals enabling concurrent or isolated access to upper (I/O9–I/O16) and lower (I/O1–I/O8) data bytes.
Power management is handled through automatic CE-driven power-down: when CE is HIGH, ICC drops to ≤10 mA (ISB2, CMOS input condition), and internal circuitry enters low-power state without external sequencing. All I/O pins enter high-impedance state during deselect, write, or disabled byte enable - ensuring clean bus sharing in multi-device memory subsystems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory size | 1 Mbit (64 K × 16); provides 128 KB of parallel-access data storage for firmware buffers or real-time data logging. |
| tAA (access time) | 15 ns max; enables direct interface with 66 MHz microcontrollers without wait states. |
| VCC supply | 5 V ±10%; compatible with legacy 5 V logic families and industrial power rails. |
| ISB2 (standby current) | ≤10 mA (CMOS inputs); reduces system idle power in battery-backed or energy-sensitive applications. |
| Operating temperature | –40 °C to +85 °C; qualified for industrial control, motor drives, and factory automation environments. |
| Package | 44-pin TSOP II (10.16 mm × 20.95 mm); surface-mount compatible with standard reflow profiles and automated assembly. |
| Byte enable | Independent BHE/BLE control; allows simultaneous or selective 8-bit writes without masking logic or extra glue logic. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 44-pin Thin Small Outline Package Type II (TSOP II), 400-mil body width, lead pitch 0.8 mm, JEDEC MO-141AC compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A15 | Address inputs | 16-bit address bus; selects one of 65,536 memory locations; TTL/CMOS compatible. |
| I/O1–I/O8 | Lower data I/O | Bidirectional 8-bit data path controlled by BLE; tristated when BLE or CE is HIGH. |
| I/O9–I/O16 | Upper data I/O | Bidirectional 8-bit data path controlled by BHE; independent of lower byte for mixed-width transfers. |
| CE | Chip enable | Active-low global select; disables all outputs and triggers automatic power-down when HIGH. |
| WE | Write enable | Active-low write strobe; initiates write cycle only when CE and corresponding byte enable are also LOW. |
| OE | Output enable | Active-low output gate; controls direction of I/O pins; must be LOW for read operations. |
| BLE / BHE | Byte enable | Active-low controls for lower/upper data bytes; enables true 8-bit granularity in 16-bit bus systems. |
| VCC (pins 11, 33) | Power supply | +5 V ±10% main supply; decoupling required at both pins per datasheet layout guidelines. |
| VSS (pins 12, 34) | Ground | System ground reference; dual GND pins reduce ground bounce in high-speed operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automatic CE power-down | Reduces ICC to ≤10 mA without external control logic or sleep-mode software overhead. |
| Dual independent byte enables | Eliminates need for external byte-mask logic in 8-bit peripheral interfacing or partial-word updates. |
| 15 ns tAA with 5 V supply | Supports direct connection to legacy 66 MHz CPUs (e.g., Intel 80486, Motorola 68040) without wait-state insertion. |
| High noise immunity | VIH ≥ 2.2 V and VIL ≤ 0.8 V ensure robust operation in electrically noisy industrial environments. |
| Pb-free and RoHS-compliant option | ZXI suffix denotes lead-free TSOP II packaging meeting EU Directive 2011/65/EU requirements. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar static RAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AS6C1008-15TIN | Same 64 K × 16 organization, 15 ns tAA, but 3.3 V only; no 5 V support. | Requires level-shifting or redesign if replacing 5 V systems; unsuitable for legacy 5 V buses. | Select only when migrating to 3.3 V architecture and board space allows SOJ-to-TSOP footprint adaptation. |
| IS61LV1024-15KLI | 1 Mbit (128 K × 8) organization; 8-bit bus width; 15 ns tAA; 3.3 V supply. | Requires bus-width conversion (16-bit ↔ 8-bit) and may increase controller pin count or require multiplexing. | Preferable only when system already uses 8-bit data paths or when lower power (ISB = 1 µA) outweighs bandwidth loss. |
Compared with AS6C1008-15TIN and IS61LV1024-15KLI, CY7C1021BNL-15ZXI uniquely retains native 5 V compatibility, 16-bit bus width, and industrial-temperature-rated TSOP II packaging - making it irreplaceable in legacy industrial and automotive control designs where voltage, timing, and form factor are fixed constraints.

FAQ
Is CY7C1021BNL-15ZXI pin-compatible with CY7C1021DV33-15ZXC?
No. CY7C1021BNL-15ZXI is a 5 V device in 44-pin TSOP II, while CY7C1021DV33-15ZXC is a 3.3 V variant with different DC characteristics, input thresholds, and thermal parameters. They share identical pinout but are not voltage-compatible or functionally interchangeable without level-shifting and layout revision.
Does CY7C1021BNL-15ZXI support asynchronous burst reads?
No. The CY7C1021BNL-15ZXI is a classic asynchronous SRAM with no internal burst counter or sequential address generation. Each read requires full address setup before CE/OE assertion; burst access must be implemented externally via controller logic or address sequencer.
What is the maximum capacitive load the I/O pins can drive reliably?
The device is characterized for 30 pF total load capacitance (including PCB trace, scope probe, and jig) under AC test conditions. Driving >30 pF may degrade tDOE (7 ns) and tHZOE (7 ns) timing margins; use series termination or buffer drivers for loads exceeding this value.
Can BHE and BLE be tied together for 16-bit operation?
Yes. Connecting BHE and BLE to the same control signal enables full 16-bit word access. However, doing so forfeits independent byte-write capability and increases write current slightly due to simultaneous activation of both I/O sections.
