Product details
Overview
CY7C199C-15VXI from Cypress Semiconductor is a 256K (32K × 8) asynchronous CMOS static RAM with 15 ns access time, 5.0V ±10% supply range, TTL-compatible I/Os, automatic CE-controlled power-down, and 2.0V data retention. It operates across industrial temperature (–40°C to +85°C) and is packaged in 28-pin SOJ for embedded memory buffering in legacy microcontroller systems.
For engineers reviewing the CY7C199C-15VXI datasheet, CY7C199C-15VXI pinout, CY7C199C-15VXI application, or CY7C199C-15VXI equivalent, key selection criteria include access time consistency under CE/OE/WE timing control, low standby current (≤500 µA), industrial-grade thermal performance (ΘJA = 79°C/W), and compatibility with 5V TTL bus interfaces in space-constrained SOJ layouts.
Technical Context
The CY7C199C-15VXI implements a fully asynchronous SRAM architecture with independent address decoding, sense amplifier array, and tri-state I/O buffers. Its CE-driven power-down logic reduces ICC to ≤10 µA when chip enable is deasserted, while OE and WE jointly govern read/write transitions without internal clocks or synchronization circuits.
All timing parameters-including tAA (15 ns), tACE (15 ns), tDOE (7 ns), and tHZOE (7 ns)-are specified at VCC = 4.5V–5.5V and TA = –40°C to +85°C, with guaranteed data hold (tOHA = 3 ns) and write pulse width (tPWE = 9 ns) supporting reliable interfacing to 8-bit microprocessors like Intel 8085 or Zilog Z80 derivatives.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 32K × 8 bits - supports byte-wide data bus with no external multiplexing required |
| Access Time (tAA) | 15 ns - enables direct interface with 25 MHz CPU buses without wait states |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5V to 5.5V - ensures interoperability with legacy 5V TTL logic families |
| Standby Current (ISB2) | ≤500 µA - maintains low power during idle cycles in battery-backed systems |
| Data Retention Voltage | 2.0V - allows memory contents to persist during brown-out conditions down to 2V supply |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial control and automotive under-hood applications |
| Input Capacitance | 8 pF - minimizes signal loading on address/data lines in high-density PCB layouts |
Pinout & Package
Package: 28-pin Small Outline J-Lead (SOJ), body size 11.4 mm × 10.2 mm, lead pitch 1.27 mm, JEDEC MO-025AC compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A14 | Address Input | 15-bit address bus accepting full 32K address space; latched on CE/WE transitions |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bi-directional Data Bus | 8-bit TTL-compatible data path; high-impedance when OE = VIH or CE = VIH |
| CE | Chip Enable | Active-low primary selection signal; triggers automatic power-down when high |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low control for output buffer; overrides WE during reads to prevent bus contention |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write strobe; initiates write cycle only when CE = LOW and OE = HIGH |
| VCC | Power Supply | +5.0V ±10% core supply; decoupling capacitor required within 10 mm of pin 28 |
| VSS | Ground | Signal and power return reference; must be connected to low-impedance ground plane |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automatic CE Power-down | Reduces ICC to ≤10 µA when CE is deasserted-eliminates need for external sleep controllers |
| TTL-Compatible I/O | VIH = 2.2V min, VOL = 0.4V max at 8 mA-ensures direct connection to 5V microprocessor buses |
| 2.0V Data Retention | Maintains stored data during brown-out or backup-battery operation without refresh |
| Industrial Temperature Range | Validated operation from –40°C to +85°C-supports deployment in motor drives and PLC modules |
| Multiple Package Options | SOJ (Z28), DIP (P21), TSOP I (Z28)-enables drop-in replacement across legacy board revisions |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar asynchronous SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AS6C4008-15TIN | 15 ns access, 32K × 8, 2.7V–3.6V supply only | Requires level-shifting for 5V systems; lower power but incompatible voltage domain | Select only if migrating to 3.3V architecture and redesigning power delivery |
| IS61LV25616AL-15TQLI | 15 ns, 256K × 16, 3.3V supply, 44-pin TSOP II | Doubles data width and requires PCB layout change; not pin-compatible | Choose when upgrading bandwidth and accepting footprint revision for future-proofing |
Compared with AS6C4008-15TIN and IS61LV25616AL-15TQLI, the CY7C199C-15VXI uniquely supports 5V TTL interfacing and SOJ packaging in legacy designs-making it irreplaceable where voltage compatibility and mechanical fit are non-negotiable constraints.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by CY7C199C-15VXI?
The CY7C199C-15VXI is an asynchronous SRAM and does not use a clock signal. Its maximum effective interface speed is determined by access time (15 ns) and cycle time (tRC = 15 ns), allowing reliable operation with microprocessors running up to ~25 MHz bus frequencies when timing margins are observed.
Does CY7C199C-15VXI support battery backup operation?
Yes-CY7C199C-15VXI guarantees data retention down to VCC = 2.0V with ISB2 ≤ 10 µA, enabling seamless transition to backup battery power during main supply failure without external circuitry or refresh.
Can CY7C199C-15VXI be used with 3.3V microcontrollers?
No-its input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.2V, VIL ≤ 0.8V) and output drive (VOH ≥ 2.4V at –4 mA) are specified only for 5.0V ±10% operation. Interfacing with 3.3V logic requires level translation to avoid marginal or non-compliant signaling.
Is lead-free packaging available for CY7C199C-15VXI?
Yes-the CY7C199C-15VXI is offered in lead-free 28-pin DIP per manufacturer documentation, though the -15VXI suffix specifically denotes the industrial-grade 28-pin SOJ variant with standard SnPb finish. Lead-free SOJ variants exist under different ordering codes (e.g., -15VXIT).
