Product details
Overview
CY7C199NL-15ZXC from Cypress Semiconductor is a 32K × 8 (262,144-bit) high-speed CMOS static RAM with 15 ns access time, TTL-compatible I/O, active-low CE/OE/WE control, and automatic power-down reducing standby current to 50 µA. It operates at 5 V ±10%, supports 2 V data retention in low-power mode, and is used in legacy industrial controllers, embedded instrumentation buffers, and FPGA configuration memory interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the CY7C199NL-15ZXC datasheet, CY7C199NL-15ZXC pinout, CY7C199NL-15ZXC application, or CY7C199NL-15ZXC equivalent, key selection criteria include tRC = 15 ns read cycle time, ISB2 = 0.05 mA CMOS standby current, VDR = 2.0 V data retention voltage, and TSOP I 28-pin package compatibility with legacy PCB footprints.
Technical Context
The CY7C199NL-15ZXC implements a full asynchronous SRAM architecture with independent address decoding (A0–A14), bidirectional 8-bit I/O bus (I/O0–I/O7), and three-state output drivers controlled by OE and CE. Its automatic power-down activates when CE is HIGH, reducing ICC from 100 mA to 0.05 mA without external logic.
Write operation requires simultaneous LOW CE and WE; read requires LOW CE and OE with WE HIGH. Data retention mode engages at VCC = 2.0 V with CE held HIGH and inputs clamped, sustaining stored data with ICCDR ≤ 10 µA.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 32,768 × 8 bits - provides 256 KB addressable byte space for firmware/data buffering |
| Access Time (tAA) | 15 ns - enables direct interface with 66 MHz microcontrollers without wait states |
| Supply Voltage | 5 V ±10% - compatible with standard TTL/CMOS logic rails and legacy 5 V systems |
| Standby Current (ISB2) | 0.05 mA - allows battery-backed operation for >1 year on coin-cell power in hold mode |
| Data Retention Voltage | 2.0 V - maintains memory contents during brown-out or controlled power-down sequences |
| Output Enable Delay (tDOE) | 7 ns - ensures fast data availability after OE assertion, critical for burst-mode reads |
| Input Capacitance | 8 pF - minimizes loading on address/data buses, supporting >10 loads per line |
Pinout & Package
Package: 28-pin TSOP I (Thin Small Outline Package), 8.3 mm × 13.4 mm body, 0.55 mm pitch, JEDEC MO-153 compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A14 | Address Inputs | 15-bit address bus selecting one of 32,768 memory locations |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Bus | 8-bit tristatable I/O lines shared for read/write; high-impedance when CE or OE inactive |
| CE | Chip Enable (active LOW) | Primary device select; enables automatic power-down when HIGH |
| OE | Output Enable (active LOW) | Controls output driver enable; must be LOW for read data to appear on I/O lines |
| WE | Write Enable (active LOW) | Controls write operation; LOW with CE LOW initiates write; HIGH during CE LOW enables read |
| VCC | Power Supply | +5 V supply pin (Pin 28); decoupling required within 10 mm for stable 15 ns timing |
| GND | Ground | Reference plane (Pin 14); must be low-inductance connection to minimize noise coupling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automatic Power-Down | Reduces ICC from 100 mA to 0.05 mA when CE is deasserted - eliminates need for external power-gating logic |
| TTL-Compatible I/O | VIH = 2.2 V min, VOL = 0.4 V max - ensures interoperability with 74LS, 74HC, and microcontroller GPIOs |
| 2 V Data Retention | Maintains stored data at VCC = 2.0 V with CE HIGH - supports graceful shutdown in power-fail scenarios |
| Fast tDOE = 7 ns | Delivers valid data within 7 ns of OE assertion - enables tight timing margins in high-throughput buffer applications |

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 | Same 32K × 8 organization, 15 ns speed, but uses 28-pin SOJ package and lacks 2 V data retention | Requires PCB redesign due to SOJ footprint; unsuitable for brown-out retention use cases | Select only if TSOP I footprint is unavailable and data retention below 4.5 V is unnecessary |
| IS61LV25616AL-15TQLI | Wider 16-bit bus (256K × 16), 3.3 V core, 15 ns access, LVTTL-compatible, no 2 V retention | Higher density and lower voltage, but incompatible pinout and voltage domain; needs level-shifting | Choose for new 3.3 V designs requiring higher bandwidth; not drop-in for CY7C199NL-15ZXC |
Compared with AS6C4008-15TIN and IS61LV25616AL-15TQLI, the CY7C199NL-15ZXC uniquely delivers 2 V data retention in a TSOP I package with proven 5 V TTL interoperability-critical for maintaining legacy system compatibility and power-fail resilience.

FAQ
Is CY7C199NL-15ZXC RoHS-compliant?
Yes. CY7C199NL-15ZXC is RoHS-compliant and lead-free per JEDEC J-STD-609, with matte tin finish on all leads and halogen-free molding compound. It meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU and is rated for MSL Level 3 per J-STD-020.
Can CY7C199NL-15ZXC operate at 3.3 V?
No. The device is specified only for 5 V ±10% operation (4.5 V to 5.5 V). Applying 3.3 V violates the Absolute Maximum Rating for VCC and results in undefined behavior, including failure to retain data or meet timing specifications.
What is the maximum clock frequency supported for read/write cycles?
This is an asynchronous SRAM with no internal clock. Maximum effective throughput is determined by tRC = 15 ns, enabling up to 66.7 MHz sustained random access rate. Burst reads are limited by address setup/hold and OE/CE timing-not by a clock signal.
Does CY7C199NL-15ZXC require external pull-up resistors on control pins?
No. All control inputs (CE, OE, WE) have TTL-compatible thresholds and do not require external pull-ups for proper logic-level recognition. However, floating inputs must be avoided; unused control lines should be tied to VCC or GND per system reset requirements.
