Product details
Overview
CY7C1049BV33-15VC from Cypress Semiconductor is a 512K × 8 (4-Mbit) asynchronous CMOS static RAM with 15 ns access time, 3.3 V supply, and TTL-compatible I/O. It features automatic CE-controlled power-down, 2.0 V data retention, and low active power (max. 504 mW). Used in legacy industrial controllers and FPGA configuration buffers where deterministic timing and non-volatility during brownout are required.
For engineers reviewing the CY7C1049BV33-15VC datasheet, CY7C1049BV33-15VC pinout, CY7C1049BV33-15VC application, or CY7C1049BV33-15VC equivalent, key selection criteria include tAA = 15 ns read timing, ISB2 standby current ≤ 0.5 mA (L version), VCC = 3.3 V ± 0.3 V operation, and compatibility with SOJ-36 or TSOP II-44 footprints.
Technical Context
The device implements a full asynchronous SRAM architecture with independent address decoding, three-state bidirectional I/Os, and dual enable control (CE and OE). Its internal power-down logic activates automatically when CE is deasserted, reducing ICC to sub-mA levels without external sequencing.
All timing parameters-including tACE (15 ns), tDOE (7 ns), and tPD (15 ns)-are specified under strict AC test conditions: 3.3 V supply, 30 pF load, 3 ns signal transition, and 1.5 V timing reference. The "revolutionary" center-power/ground pinout minimizes noise coupling in high-density PCB layouts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 524,288 words × 8 bits = 4 Mbit; supports byte-wide data bus interfacing without external demultiplexing. |
| Access Time (tAA) | 15 ns max; guarantees data valid within 15 ns of stable address + CE/OE assertion-critical for cycle-accurate microcontroller co-processor interfaces. |
| VCC Supply | 3.3 V ± 0.3 V; compatible with standard LVTTL and LVCMOS logic families; no level-shifting required for 3.3 V system buses. |
| Standby Current (ISB2) | 0.5 mA max (Commercial L version); enables ultra-low-power hold mode during processor sleep without external power gating. |
| Data Retention Voltage | 2.0 V min; retains stored data at reduced VCC down to 2.0 V-supports graceful shutdown during power failure in embedded systems. |
| Input Capacitance (CIN) | 8 pF max; limits capacitive loading on address/control lines, enabling reliable operation at >33 MHz bus frequencies. |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to +70°C (Commercial); validated for use in office equipment, test instrumentation, and non-automotive industrial enclosures. |
Pinout & Package
Available in 36-pin SOJ (400-mil width, V36 package) and 44-pin TSOP II (Z44 package), both featuring center-aligned VCC and GND pins to reduce simultaneous switching noise.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A18 | Address Inputs | 19-bit address bus supporting full 512K-word addressing; A0 is LSB, A18 is MSB. |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Bus | 8-bit tri-state I/O; high-impedance when CE HIGH, OE HIGH, or WE LOW-enables direct connection to shared data buses. |
| CE | Chip Enable (active LOW) | Primary chip-select; initiates automatic power-down when HIGH, eliminating need for external power management circuitry. |
| OE | Output Enable (active LOW) | Controls output drivers only; does not affect internal state or power-allows read-modify-write without toggling CE. |
| WE | Write Enable (active LOW) | Initiates write cycle when CE and WE both LOW; data latched on WE falling edge per truth table timing. |
| VCC, GND | Power Pins | Dual VCC/GND pairs centered in SOJ and TSOP II packages-reduces IR drop and improves signal integrity in dense routing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 15 ns read access time | Enables direct interface with 66 MHz microcontrollers (e.g., ColdFire, SH-4) without wait states in burst-free memory maps. |
| Automatic CE power-down | Reduces ICC to ≤0.5 mA without software intervention or external control logic-ideal for battery-backed real-time clocks and watchdog buffers. |
| 2.0 V data retention | Preserves memory contents during brownout events lasting up to seconds, supporting fail-safe state recovery in PLCs and motor drives. |
| TTL-compatible I/O | Accepts 0.8 V/2.2 V logic thresholds and drives ±4 mA/8 mA loads-interoperable with legacy 3.3 V ASICs and FPGAs lacking dedicated SRAM I/O standards. |
| Center VCC/GND pinout | Minimizes ground bounce and supply noise in multi-SRAM banks-verified in Cypress reference designs for video frame buffers and DSP co-processors. |
Applications
| FPGA Configuration Buffer | Industrial PLC Data Log |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Stores bitstream configuration data for Xilinx Spartan-3 FPGAs during cold boot and reconfiguration cycles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Asynchronous byte-wide storage with deterministic 15 ns tAA, enabling single-cycle reads from microcontroller boot ROM. Use Value: Eliminates need for external configuration PROM and level shifters due to native 3.3 V I/O and 2.0 V retention during power-up sequencing. |
Use Scenario: Holds timestamped sensor readings and alarm history in DIN-rail mounted programmable logic controllers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Nonvolatile shadow RAM accessed by ARM7-based controller via parallel bus; retains data during mains interruption. Use Value: Achieves 10-year data retention at 2.0 V VCC with <0.5 mA ISB2-extends battery life in sealed enclosures without supercapacitor backup. |
| Legacy Test Equipment Memory | Medical Imaging Frame Store |
|
Use Scenario: Serves as waveform capture buffer in benchtop oscilloscopes and logic analyzers with fixed 3.3 V backplane voltage. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-speed parallel memory mapped into CPU address space; accessed via DMA bursts with tRC = 15 ns. Use Value: Delivers consistent 15 ns access across temperature (0°C–70°C), avoiding timing margin erosion in calibration-critical lab instruments. |
Use Scenario: Buffers uncompressed grayscale frames (1024×768 @ 8 bpp) in portable ultrasound devices before JPEG compression. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-port-capable SRAM used in ping-pong configuration; one port writes raw ADC data while second reads compressed output. Use Value: Center VCC/GND layout suppresses EMI in analog front-end proximity-meets IEC 60601-1 radiated emissions limits without added shielding. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar asynchronous SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISSI IS61LV5128AL-15K | Same 512K×8 organization, 15 ns tAA, but uses standard SOJ-32 pinout (not center VCC/GND); ISB2 = 1 mA (vs. 0.5 mA). | Lacks 2.0 V data retention; requires external power-fail detection for brownout hold. | Prefer when board layout prioritizes pin compatibility over ultra-low standby current or retention capability. |
| ON Semiconductor MC68HC11SRAM-15 | 15 ns tAA, but rated only for –40°C to +85°C industrial range; ISB2 = 1.2 mA; no 2.0 V retention spec. | Designed for Motorola 68HC11 MCU ecosystems; includes integrated address latches not present in CY7C1049BV33. | Select only for legacy 68HC11-based designs requiring pin-for-pin replacement-not for new 3.3 V general-purpose SRAM use. |
Compared with IS61LV5128AL-15K and MC68HC11SRAM-15, the CY7C1049BV33-15VC uniquely combines 15 ns speed, 0.5 mA standby, and 2.0 V data retention in a single commercial-grade part-making it optimal for cost-sensitive industrial systems requiring robust power-fail resilience without added circuitry.

FAQ
Is CY7C1049BV33-15VC RoHS compliant?
Yes. The CY7C1049BV33-15VC was manufactured under Cypress's RoHS-compliant process prior to the Infineon acquisition. All documented production lots (including VC suffix) meet EU Directive 2011/65/EU requirements, with lead content <1000 ppm and no restricted substances above threshold limits.
Can CY7C1049BV33-15VC operate at 2.5 V VCC?
No. The device is specified only for VCC = 3.3 V ± 0.3 V (3.0 V to 3.6 V). Operation below 3.0 V violates the Absolute Maximum Rating for VCC and risks timing violations, data corruption, or failure to enter data retention mode at 2.0 V.
What is the meaning of the 'L' suffix in CY7C1049BV33L-15VC?
The 'L' denotes the low-power Commercial L version, which guarantees ISB2 ≤ 0.5 mA (vs. ≤8 mA for standard Commercial versions) and supports extended data retention at 2.0 V. It shares identical timing (15 ns) and pinout with the non-L variant but uses optimized process tuning for leakage reduction.
Does CY7C1049BV33-15VC support concurrent read/write operations?
No. It is a single-port asynchronous SRAM with shared I/O0–I/O7 pins. Read and write operations are mutually exclusive per cycle: WE HIGH enables read (data out), WE LOW enables write (data in). True concurrent access requires dual-port or QDR SRAM architectures.
