Product details
Overview
CY7C1399B-15VXC from Cypress Semiconductor is a 256 Kbit (32K × 8) single-supply 3.3 V CMOS static RAM with 15 ns maximum access time, 50 mA max operating current, automatic CE-controlled power-down (<5 µA standby), and SOJ-28 Pb-free plastic package. It serves as cache or buffer memory in embedded controllers requiring fast, low-voltage, non-refreshed data retention.
For engineers reviewing the CY7C1399B-15VXC datasheet, CY7C1399B-15VXC pinout, CY7C1399B-15VXC application, or CY7C1399B-15VXC equivalent, key selection criteria include TTL/CMOS-compatible control timing (tRC = 15 ns, tPD = 15 ns), dual-power-state current profile (ICC = 50 mA / ISB1 = 5 µA), and SOJ-28 mechanical compatibility with legacy board layouts.
Technical Context
The CY7C1399B-15VXC implements a synchronous, address-decoded 32K × 8 SRAM array using alpha-immune 6T cells, supporting three-state bidirectional I/Os with independent CE, OE, and WE controls. Its automatic power-down activates when CE is HIGH, reducing ICC to ≤5 µA without external logic.
Timing is defined by overlapping CE/WE assertions for writes and CE/OE coordination for reads; all AC parameters are specified at VCC = 3.3 V ±300 mV, CL = 30 pF, and TA = 0°C to +70°C (Commercial range). The device supports both WE-controlled and CE-controlled write cycles with validated setup/hold margins (tSD = 8 ns, tAW = 10 ns).

FAQ
What is the minimum VCC required to retain data in CY7C1399B-15VXC?
Data retention is guaranteed down to VCC = 2.0 V (VDR), with ICCDR ≤20 µA at that voltage. This allows continued memory hold during brown-out conditions common in automotive and industrial power supplies, provided CE remains HIGH and input voltages stay within valid logic thresholds.
Does CY7C1399B-15VXC support true asynchronous operation?
Yes - it requires no clocks or synchronization signals. All operations are controlled solely by CE, OE, and WE timing relationships. Read and write cycles are fully asynchronous, with tRC = 15 ns defining the minimum interval between successive accesses regardless of clock domain.
Can CY7C1399B-15VXC be used with 5 V tolerant microcontrollers?
No - its inputs are rated for –0.5 V to VCC + 0.5 V (max 3.8 V), and outputs swing only to VOH = 2.4 V (min). Direct interface with 5 V logic requires level-shifting circuitry; it is intended for native 3.3 V systems only.
Is the SOJ-28 package of CY7C1399B-15VXC compatible with reflow soldering?
Yes - the Pb-free SOJ-28 (V21) package is qualified for standard lead-free reflow profiles (JEDEC J-STD-020), including peak temperatures up to 260°C. Cypress specifies 235°C as maximum solder temperature for 30 seconds, consistent with IPC-A-610 Class 2 requirements.
