Product details
Overview
CY7C1021BNV33L-15ZXCT from Cypress Semiconductor is a 64K × 16 (1,048,576-bit) asynchronous CMOS static RAM operating at 3.3 V with 15 ns access time, low active power (576 mW max), and automatic CE-controlled power-down. It supports independent byte-wide writes via BHE/ BLE and is used in legacy industrial controllers, FPGA configuration memory buffers, and real-time data acquisition systems requiring deterministic read/write timing.
For engineers reviewing the CY7C1021BNV33L-15ZXCT datasheet, CY7C1021BNV33L-15ZXCT pinout, CY7C1021BNV33L-15ZXCT application, or CY7C1021BNV33L-15ZXCT equivalent, this page delivers verified package mapping (44-pin TSOP II), byte-enable timing behavior, standby current (0.5 mA max), retention voltage (2.0 V), and direct alternatives for SRAM replacement in space-constrained embedded designs.
Technical Context
This SRAM implements full asynchronous operation with separate Byte High Enable (BHE) and Byte Low Enable (BLE) inputs, enabling independent 8-bit writes to upper or lower data words without masking logic. Address decoding covers A0–A15 (64K words), and all control signals (CE, OE, WE, BHE, BLE) are TTL/CMOS-compatible with VIH ≥ 2.2 V and VIL ≤ 0.8 V.
Power management relies on dual standby modes: ISB1 (40 mA, TTL input thresholds) and ISB2 (5 mA, CMOS thresholds), with L-version optimized for sub-milliwatt retention (100 µA at VCC = 2.0 V). Output drive strength meets IOL = 8.0 mA / IOH = –4.0 mA under worst-case VCC min conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 64K × 16 (1 Mbit); enables single-word 16-bit data transfers without external multiplexing |
| Access Time (tAA) | 15 ns max; guarantees deterministic read latency for cycle-accurate timing in microcontroller co-processor interfaces |
| VCC Operating Range | 3.0 V to 3.6 V; compatible with standard 3.3 V logic rails and tolerant of ±10% supply variation |
| Active Current (ICC) | 140 mA max (commercial); defines peak power draw during burst read/write sequences |
| Standby Current (ISB2) | 0.5 mA max; enables ultra-low-power hold mode when CE is deasserted under CMOS input conditions |
| Data Retention Voltage | 2.0 V min; allows memory state preservation during brown-out or controlled power-gating down to 2 V |
| Input Capacitance | 6 pF max; limits high-frequency signal loading on address/control buses in dense PCB layouts |
Pinout & Package
Package: 44-pin TSOP Type II (0.400-inch width), RoHS-compliant, body size 10.16 mm × 18.42 mm × 1.20 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A15 | Address Inputs | 16-bit binary address bus selecting one of 65,536 memory locations |
| I/O1–I/O8 | Lower Data I/O | Bidirectional 8-bit data path enabled only when BLE = LOW during read/write |
| I/O9–I/O16 | Upper Data I/O | Bidirectional 8-bit data path enabled only when BHE = LOW during read/write |
| CE | Chip Enable | Active-LOW global select; forces device into automatic power-down when HIGH |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-LOW read strobe; disables outputs (high-Z) when HIGH, regardless of CE state |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-LOW write strobe; initiates write cycle when CE and WE both LOW |
| BLE | Byte Low Enable | Active-LOW control for I/O1–I/O8; enables partial 8-bit writes without affecting upper byte |
| BHE | Byte High Enable | Active-LOW control for I/O9–I/O16; enables partial 8-bit writes without affecting lower byte |
| VCC | Supply Voltage | 3.3 V core power; two pins (pins 16 & 31) reduce IR drop and improve noise immunity |
| VSS | Ground | Signal reference; two dedicated pins (pins 12 & 27) minimize ground bounce in high-speed cycles |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Independent Byte Write Control | Separate BHE and BLE inputs allow atomic 8-bit updates to upper/lower data words-eliminates need for external byte-mask logic |
| Low-Power Standby Mode | 0.5 mA max ISB2 current at VCC = 3.6 V enables >10-year data retention in battery-backed systems |
| Automatic Power-Down | CE HIGH automatically disables internal circuitry and reduces ICC to ISB2 level-no software or external control required |
| High-Speed Asynchronous Interface | 15 ns tAA and 0 ns tLZOE/tLZCE ensure immediate output enable and chip select response-critical for real-time interrupt handling |
| Robust Signal Integrity | 6 pF CIN / 8 pF COUT and ±1 µA IIX/IOZ support stable operation across temperature (-40°C to +85°C) and voltage (3.0–3.6 V) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar asynchronous SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AS6C1008-15TIN | Same 64K × 16 organization, 15 ns speed, but 2.7–3.6 V supply range and higher ISB (2 mA) | Lacks BHE/BLE byte control; requires external gating for partial writes | Prefer when wider VCC tolerance is needed and byte masking is handled externally |
| IS61LV102416-15TLI | 15 ns access, 3.3 V only, 1 mA ISB, but no automatic CE power-down (requires external disable) | Higher output drive (IOL = 16 mA) but lacks integrated power-gating logic | Choose when driving long traces or heavy loads, and system-level power control is already implemented |
Compared with AS6C1008-15TIN and IS61LV102416-15TLI, the CY7C1021BNV33L-15ZXCT uniquely integrates byte-select autonomy and hardware-triggered power-down-reducing BOM count and firmware complexity in resource-constrained edge devices.

FAQ
Is CY7C1021BNV33L-15ZXCT compatible with 5 V logic interfaces?
No. This device operates strictly at 3.3 V (3.0–3.6 V) and its inputs tolerate only up to VCC + 0.5 V (≤4.1 V). Direct connection to 5 V logic violates absolute maximum ratings and risks permanent damage. Level-shifting circuitry is required for interfacing with 5 V microcontrollers or FPGAs.
Does CY7C1021BNV33L-15ZXCT support concurrent read and write operations?
No. It is a single-port asynchronous SRAM with no internal arbitration. Simultaneous read and write to the same address location is undefined and may cause data corruption. The device requires strict sequencing: either CE/OE/WE states must be mutually exclusive per cycle, or byte enables (BHE/BLE) must isolate access to non-overlapping data lanes.
What is the meaning of "L" in the part number CY7C1021BNV33L-15ZXCT?
The "L" suffix denotes the low-power variant: it specifies reduced active current (576 mW max), lower standby current (0.5 mA max ISB2), and guaranteed data retention down to 2.0 V VCC. This distinguishes it from standard versions (e.g., CY7C1021BNV33-15ZXCT) which have higher power consumption and no specified retention voltage.
Can CY7C1021BNV33L-15ZXCT be used in place of CY7C1021DV33-15ZXC?
No. Although both are 64K × 16 SRAMs with 15 ns speed, the DV33 version uses different pinout (44-pin SOJ), lacks BHE/BLE byte enables, and has higher standby current (5 mA vs. 0.5 mA). Physical and functional incompatibility prevents drop-in replacement without PCB and firmware revision.
