Product details
Overview
CY7C1399BN-12ZXCT from Cypress Semiconductor is a 256-Kbit (32 K × 8) asynchronous CMOS static RAM with 3.3 V single-supply operation, 12 ns access time, industrial temperature range (–40 °C to +85 °C), and automatic CE-controlled power-down mode. It serves as cache or buffer memory in embedded controllers, network interface cards, and real-time data acquisition systems requiring deterministic read/write timing and low standby current.
For engineers reviewing the CY7C1399BN-12ZXCT datasheet, CY7C1399BN-12ZXCT pinout, CY7C1399BN-12ZXCT application, or CY7C1399BN-12ZXCT equivalent, key selection criteria include 12 ns read cycle time, 55 mA max active current, 500 µA max CMOS standby current, tristate I/O drivers, and compatibility with 28-pin TSOP-I and SOJ packages.
Technical Context
The CY7C1399BN-12ZXCT implements a 32,768 × 8-bit memory array using low-power alpha-immune 6T SRAM cells. Its control logic supports independent chip enable (CE), output enable (OE), and write enable (WE) signals with TTL/CMOS-compatible input thresholds and full tristate output control.
Timing behavior is defined by overlapping CE/WE assertion for writes and CE/OE assertion for reads, with guaranteed tRC = 12 ns, tAA = 12 ns, and tPD = 12 ns power-down entry. The device enters automatic low-power mode when CE is deasserted, reducing ICC to ≤500 µA under CMOS input conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 256 Kbit (32 K × 8) - supports byte-wide data bus interfaces without external multiplexing |
| Access Time | 12 ns - enables direct interfacing with 80 MHz microcontrollers without wait states |
| Supply Voltage | 3.3 V ±300 mV - compatible with modern low-voltage logic families and LDO-regulated systems |
| Active Current | 55 mA max - limits thermal load in compact PCB layouts with multiple memory devices |
| Standby Current | 500 µA max (CMOS inputs) - sustains battery-backed operation for >100 hours at 3.3 V |
| Operating Temp | –40 °C to +85 °C - qualified for industrial control and automotive-A environments |
| Data Retention VCC | 2.0 V min - preserves contents during brown-out or controlled power sequencing |
Pinout & Package
The CY7C1399BN-12ZXCT is packaged in a 28-pin TSOP-I (Type I) with 0.5 mm pitch, 8.1 mm × 13.4 mm body, and gull-wing leads. Pin assignment matches JEDEC MO-141AC standard.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A14 | Address Inputs | 15-bit address bus supporting full 32 K-word decoding; no internal latching |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Bus | Tristate CMOS I/Os with 4 mA sink / 2 mA source drive; high-impedance when CE or OE inactive |
| CE | Chip Enable (active LOW) | Primary device select; initiates automatic power-down when HIGH and all inputs stable |
| OE | Output Enable (active LOW) | Controls output driver enable independently of CE; allows read-modify-write cycles |
| WE | Write Enable (active LOW) | Directly controls write operation; rising edge terminates write regardless of CE state |
| VCC | Power Supply | 3.3 V supply pin; decoupling required within 10 mm of pin per JEDEC guidelines |
| GND | Ground Reference | Signal and power return; must be connected to solid ground plane for noise immunity |

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by CY7C1399BN-12ZXCT?
The CY7C1399BN-12ZXCT is an asynchronous SRAM and does not use a clock signal. Its performance is governed by timing parameters including tRC = 12 ns, meaning it supports effective bus cycles up to approximately 83 MHz when interfaced with controllers that meet setup/hold requirements. No internal clock circuitry is present.
Does CY7C1399BN-12ZXCT support battery backup operation?
Yes - the device retains data down to VCC = 2.0 V and draws ≤20 µA during data retention mode (ICC_DR), making it suitable for battery-backed applications such as RTC memory or configuration storage. External battery switchover circuitry must ensure VCC remains ≥2.0 V during main supply loss.
Can CY7C1399BN-12ZXCT be used with 5 V logic interfaces?
No - the CY7C1399BN-12ZXCT is strictly a 3.3 V device. Input voltages exceeding VCC + 0.3 V (i.e., >3.6 V) may damage the part. Level translation is required for interfacing with 5 V microcontrollers or FPGAs; TI SN74AVC4T245 or similar dual-supply translators are recommended.
Is the TSOP-I package of CY7C1399BN-12ZXCT RoHS compliant?
Yes - the -ZXCT suffix denotes a lead-free, RoHS-compliant 28-pin TSOP-I package with matte tin lead finish, per Cypress's ordering code definitions and IPC/JEDEC J-STD-609A standard. Full compliance documentation is available under Infineon's product change notifications for legacy Cypress parts.
