Product details
Overview
CY7C109B-15ZC from Cypress Semiconductor is a 128K × 8 (1,048,576-bit) high-speed CMOS static RAM in 32-pin TSOP Type I package, featuring 15 ns access time, 5 V ±10% supply, TTL-compatible I/O, and automatic CE-controlled power-down. It operates across commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C) and supports memory expansion via dual chip enables (CE1 active LOW, CE2 active HIGH) and tri-state outputs - used in legacy industrial controllers, instrumentation buffers, and FPGA configuration storage.
For engineers reviewing the CY7C109B-15ZC datasheet, CY7C109B-15ZC pinout, CY7C109B-15ZC application, or CY7C109B-15ZC equivalent, key selection criteria include tAA = 15 ns read timing, ISB2 = 10 mA CMOS standby current, VCC = 5 V operation, and compatibility with 32-pin TSOP footprint for board-level replacement in space-constrained embedded systems.
Technical Context
The CY7C109B-15ZC implements a full asynchronous SRAM architecture with independent address decoding (A0–A16), eight bidirectional I/O lines (I/O0–I/O7), and dual enable logic enabling flexible memory mapping. Its CE1/CE2/OE/WE control scheme allows seamless integration into multi-chip memory banks without external gating logic.
Power management is handled through automatic CE-driven power-down: when CE1 is HIGH or CE2 is LOW, ICC drops to ≤10 mA (CMOS mode) while retaining data at VCC ≥ 2.0 V. All inputs meet TTL voltage thresholds (VIH = 2.2 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max), ensuring direct interfacing with 5 V microcontrollers and FPGAs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 131,072 × 8 bits - provides 128 KB byte-addressable storage with A0–A16 addressing |
| Access Time (tAA) | 15 ns - guarantees data valid within 15 ns of stable address and CE1/OE assertion |
| VCC Supply | 5 V ±10% - compatible with standard 5 V logic rails; no regulator required |
| Standby Current (ISB2) | 10 mA max - low quiescent draw during deselected state with CMOS input conditions |
| Data Retention Voltage | 2.0 V - retains stored data down to 2.0 V VCC, enabling battery-backed hold mode |
| Output Drive | TTL-compatible - VOH ≥ 2.4 V @ –4 mA, VOL ≤ 0.4 V @ 8 mA, eliminates level-shifter need |
| Package | 32-pin TSOP Type I - 0.5 mm pitch, surface-mount, JEDEC MO-165AA compliant footprint |
Pinout & Package
Package: 32-pin Thin Small Outline Package (TSOP Type I), 8.0 mm × 13.4 mm body, 0.5 mm lead pitch, gull-wing leads. Compliant with JEDEC MO-165AA.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A16 | Address Inputs | 17-bit address bus supporting full 128K-word decode; no internal latching |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Bus | Tri-state CMOS I/O pins shared for read/write; high-impedance when CE/OE inactive or during write |
| CE1 | Chip Enable 1 | Active LOW primary chip select; device enabled only when CE1 = LOW AND CE2 = HIGH |
| CE2 | Chip Enable 2 | Active HIGH secondary chip select; enables hierarchical memory decoding with CE1 |
| OE | Output Enable | Active LOW read strobe; controls output buffer enable independently of CE/WE states |
| WE | Write Enable | Active LOW write strobe; initiates write cycle when CE1 = LOW, CE2 = HIGH, WE = LOW |
| VCC | Power Supply | +5 V supply pin; decoupling capacitor required within 10 mm of pin per layout guidelines |
| GND | Ground | Signal and power return; dedicated GND pin (Pin 16) minimizes noise coupling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 15 ns Access Time | Enables direct interface with 66 MHz system buses without wait states in burst-read configurations |
| Dual Chip Enable Logic | Supports banked memory architectures using CE1/CE2 as row/column selects - reduces external decode logic count |
| Automatic Power-Down | Reduces ICC to ≤10 mA when deselected (CE1 HIGH or CE2 LOW), eliminating need for external sleep control |
| 2.0 V Data Retention | Permits use with backup batteries or supercapacitors for nonvolatile hold during main power loss |
| TTL-Compatible I/O | Direct connection to legacy 5 V microcontrollers (e.g., 8051, HC11) and CPLDs without level translation |

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 128K × 8 organization, 15 ns tAA, but uses 3.3 V supply and LVCMOS I/O levels | Requires level-shifting for 5 V systems; not drop-in compatible with CY7C109B-15ZC | Select only if migrating to 3.3 V architecture and redesigning power delivery and I/O interfaces |
| IS61LV10248-15TLI | 15 ns tAA, 5 V supply, but packaged in 32-pin SOJ (400-mil) - different mechanical footprint and thermal profile | Compatible electrically but requires PCB pad redesign; SOJ offers better thermal dissipation than TSOP | Choose for thermal-limited environments where board-level airflow is constrained and SOJ mounting is acceptable |
Compared with AS6C1008-15TIN and IS61LV10248-15TLI, the CY7C109B-15ZC uniquely combines 5 V TTL compatibility, TSOP packaging for high-density layouts, and proven reliability in long-lifecycle industrial deployments - making it optimal for legacy system sustainment and cost-sensitive 5 V designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by CY7C109B-15ZC?
The CY7C109B-15ZC does not operate on a clock signal - it is an asynchronous SRAM. Its maximum effective throughput is governed by tRC = 15 ns (read cycle time), enabling up to 66.7 MHz random-access bandwidth. Continuous burst reads may achieve higher average rates depending on address sequencing and bus protocol.
Can CY7C109B-15ZC be used with 3.3 V logic interfaces?
No - CY7C109B-15ZC requires 5 V ±10% VCC and features TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.2 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V). Direct connection to 3.3 V logic risks violating VIH minimum under worst-case VCC tolerance and may cause unreliable reads. Level-shifting circuitry is mandatory for 3.3 V host interfaces.
Is there a lead-free version of CY7C109B-15ZC available?
Yes - the CY7C109B-15ZXC is the RoHS-compliant, lead-free variant of this part, sharing identical electrical specifications and TSOP Type I package dimensions. It is marked with "ZXC" suffix and conforms to JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 3.
How does automatic power-down work during CE deassertion?
When CE1 goes HIGH or CE2 goes LOW, the device enters automatic power-down mode: internal arrays are isolated, precharge circuits halt, and ICC drops to ≤10 mA (ISB2). Data remains retained as long as VCC ≥ 2.0 V. No external control signal or command sequence is needed - behavior is purely hardware-driven by CE pin states.
