Product details
Overview
CY7C199CN-12ZXC from Cypress Semiconductor is a 256K-bit (32K × 8) asynchronous CMOS static RAM with 12 ns access time, 5.0V ±10% supply range, TTL-compatible I/O, and automatic CE-controlled power-down mode. It operates across commercial temperature range (0°C to 70°C) and supports high-speed data buffering in microcontroller-based systems requiring deterministic read/write timing.
For engineers reviewing the CY7C199CN-12ZXC datasheet, CY7C199CN-12ZXC pinout, CY7C199CN-12ZXC application, or CY7C199CN-12ZXC equivalent, key selection criteria include access time consistency, low standby current (≤500 µA), data retention at 2.0V, CMOS/TTL interface compatibility, and TSOP I package suitability for space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The CY7C199CN-12ZXC implements a fully asynchronous memory interface with independent chip enable (CE), output enable (OE), and write enable (WE) controls. Its internal architecture includes row/column decoders, sense amplifiers, and an automated power-down circuit triggered by CE high, reducing ICC to ≤500 µA in standby.
All timing parameters-including tRC (12 ns), tAA (12 ns), tACE (12 ns), and tPD (12 ns)-are guaranteed under VCC = 4.5–5.5V and TA = 0°C to 70°C. Data retention is maintained at VCC = 2.0V with ICCDR ≤150 µA, enabling battery-backed operation during system sleep modes.
Key Specifications

FAQ
What is the maximum operating current for CY7C199CN-12ZXC at 12 ns speed grade?
The maximum operating supply current (ICC) is 85 mA under worst-case conditions: VCC = 5.5V, f = 1/tRC = 83.3 MHz, and IOUT = 0 mA. This value is measured with all inputs driven and outputs loaded per AC test conditions specified in the datasheet, and reflects peak dynamic consumption during continuous read/write cycling.
Does CY7C199CN-12ZXC support true 2.0V data retention with full functionality?
No-data retention at 2.0V is a low-power hold mode only. The device retains stored data with ICCDR ≤150 µA but does not support read/write operations at VCC = 2.0V. Active operation requires VCC ≥4.5V. Retention timing includes tCDR = 0 ns (immediate entry) and tR = 200 µs (recovery time after VCC restoration).
Can CY7C199CN-12ZXC be used in industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C)?
No-the -12ZXC suffix denotes commercial temperature grade (0°C to +70°C). Industrial-grade variants exist (e.g., CY7C199CN-12VI) with identical electrical specs but qualified across –40°C to +85°C and higher reliability screening. Using -12ZXC outside 0°C–70°C violates specification limits and may cause timing violations or data corruption.
Is the TSOP I package of CY7C199CN-12ZXC RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes-the "Z" in -12ZXC explicitly indicates lead-free (Pb-free) construction per JEDEC J-STD-020, with matte tin finish on all leads. The TSOP I package meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and has been qualified for standard Pb-free reflow profiles up to 260°C peak temperature, with MSL Level 3 moisture sensitivity rating.
