Product details
Overview
CYDMX256A16 from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress) is a 16K × 16 asynchronous dual-port static RAM with true independent port access, one dedicated ADM (address/data multiplexed) interface and one configurable SRAM/ADM interface, 90 ns ADM access time, 1.8–3.0 V core voltage, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), used in interprocessor communication buffers and real-time video frame storage.
For engineers reviewing the CYDMX256A16 datasheet, CYDMX256A16 pinout, CYDMX256A16 application, or CYDMX256A16 equivalent, key selection criteria include port arbitration behavior, mailbox interrupt timing, byte-selectable I/O drive, independent VDDIOL/VDDIOR support, and BGA package thermal/mechanical constraints for high-density PCB layout.
Technical Context
This device implements fully asynchronous dual-port architecture with on-chip arbitration logic resolving memory address collisions between left and right ports. Each port features independent chip select (CS#), write enable (WE#), output enable (OE#), and busy/interrupt flags (BUSY#, INT#).
The left port is fixed as ADM interface; the right port is configurable via MSEL pin (0 = standard SRAM, 1 = ADM). Mailbox interrupt uses top two memory addresses (0x3FFF for right port, 0x3FFE for left port) with automatic reset-on-read behavior and power-up default assertion.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 16,384 × 16-bit (16K × 16), total 262,144 bits |
| ADM Access Time | 90 ns max - defines minimum cycle time for left port or right port in ADM mode |
| Core Voltage (VCC) | 1.8 V / 2.5 V / 3.0 V - supports mixed-voltage system integration with independent I/O rails |
| Standby Current | 2 µA typical - enables ultra-low-power sleep mode per port when CS# is deasserted |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded control and communications equipment |
| Package | 100-ball Pb-free BGA, 6 mm × 6 mm, 0.5 mm pitch - requires controlled-depth reflow and IPC-7351B footprint |
| I/O Voltage Support | VDDIOL and VDDIOR independently set to 1.8 V or 2.5 V LVCMOS or 3.0 V LVTTL - enables heterogeneous processor interfacing |
Pinout & Package
Package: 100-ball Pb-free BGA (6 mm × 6 mm, 0.5 mm pitch), RoHS-compliant, moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CS#L / CS#R | Active-low chip select | Enables port activity; HIGH forces independent port into ultra-low-power standby (ISB3 = 2 µA) |
| ADV#L / ADV#R | Address latch enable | Rising edge latches address from I/O bus on ADM ports; ADV#R only active when MSEL = 1 |
| UB#L / LB#L / UB#R / LB#R | Upper/lower byte enable | Active-low controls 8-bit granularity writes/reads; allows partial-word updates without read-modify-write |
| INT#L / INT#R | Mailbox interrupt output | Open-drain signal asserted when opposite port writes to its dedicated mailbox address (0x3FFE / 0x3FFF) |
| MSEL | Right port interface mode select | Logic HIGH configures right port as ADM; LOW configures as standard SRAM with dedicated A[13:0] pins |
| VDDIOL / VDDIOR | Left/right I/O power supply | Independent rails allow left port to interface with 1.8 V FPGA while right port connects to 2.5 V microcontroller |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| True dual-port arbitration | Hardware-resolved memory contention with BUSY# flag and deterministic priority under tPS compliance |
| Configurable right port interface | MSEL pin selects between standard SRAM (dedicated address bus) or ADM (shared address/data bus) operation |
| Mailbox-interrupt messaging | Two dedicated memory locations (0x3FFF/0x3FFE) enable lock-free inter-processor signaling without external logic |
| Independent port power-down | Per-port CS# control reduces active current to 2 µA standby without affecting other port functionality |
| Byte-selectable I/O drive | UB#/LB# pins allow simultaneous 8-bit reads/writes to upper or lower data byte, reducing bus turnaround overhead |
Applications
| Interprocessor Communication Buffer | Dual-Port Video Frame Memory |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Two independent microcontrollers exchange status and command data in real time without shared bus contention or software polling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-port SRAM acts as shared memory with hardware arbitration and mailbox interrupts enabling deterministic message passing. Use Value: Eliminates need for external arbitration logic or software semaphores; 90 ns ADM access supports sub-100 ns inter-core handshaking. | Use Scenario: Simultaneous capture of video frames by one processor and display rendering by another in embedded vision systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Left port accepts pixel data from image sensor interface; right port supplies rendered pixels to display controller at independent clock domains. Use Value: Enables seamless frame buffering with zero wait-state overlap; byte-select capability supports YUV 4:2:2 packing efficiency. |
| Industrial PLC Status Exchange | Communications Protocol Stack Buffer |
Use Scenario: Real-time exchange of I/O status and control commands between safety-critical and non-safety CPU cores in programmable logic controllers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as fault-isolated memory bridge with independent power domains (VDDIOL/VDDIOR) and industrial temperature rating. Use Value: Guarantees deterministic latency (<90 ns) and failsafe mailbox signaling even during voltage rail transients. | Use Scenario: Storing packet headers and payload fragments across TCP/IP stack layers running on separate processors in network gateways. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides concurrent read/write access to protocol state tables and buffer descriptors with hardware collision resolution. Use Value: Reduces packet processing jitter by eliminating software-managed memory locks; BUSY# flag enables immediate retry without polling delay. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-port SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IDT70V25L25PF | 25 ns access time, 3.3 V only, 128K × 16 density, no ADM interface | Requires external address latching logic for multiplexed buses; higher power (ICC = 200 mA active) | Select when deterministic <25 ns latency is required and voltage domain is fixed at 3.3 V. |
| ISSI IS61WV102416BLL | Single-port, 1024K × 16, 10 ns access, 3.3 V/2.5 V, no arbitration or mailbox | No hardware inter-processor signaling; requires software-managed semaphores and external bus sharing logic | Select only if dual-port functionality is not required and cost-per-bit is primary constraint. |
Compared with IDT70V25L25PF and IS61WV102416BLL, CYDMX256A16 uniquely delivers asymmetric interface flexibility (ADM + SRAM), ultra-low standby power (2 µA), and integrated mailbox interrupts-enabling simpler, lower-power, and more deterministic inter-processor designs without external glue logic.

FAQ
What is the function of the MSEL pin on CYDMX256A16?
The MSEL pin configures the right port interface mode: logic HIGH selects ADM (address/data multiplexed) operation, requiring ADV#R and using I/O pins for address input; logic LOW selects standard SRAM mode, using dedicated A[13:0] pins for addressing. This pin is sampled at power-up and remains latched until next reset.
How does mailbox interrupt behavior differ between CYDMX256A16 and smaller-density variants?
Mailbox addresses scale with memory depth: CYDMX256A16 uses 0x3FFF (right port) and 0x3FFE (left port); CYDMX128A16 uses 0x1FFF/0x1FFE; CYDMX064A16 uses 0xFFF/0xFFE. All share identical interrupt assertion/reset logic, but address mapping ensures no conflict across densities in multi-SRAM systems.
Can both ports operate at different I/O voltages simultaneously?
Yes. VDDIOL and VDDIOR are electrically isolated power inputs, allowing left port to operate at 1.8 V LVCMOS while right port runs at 2.5 V LVCMOS or 3.0 V LVTTL. Core voltage (VCC) must be ≤ the lower of the two I/O voltages, and all I/O pins tolerate their respective VDDIO rail.
Is CYDMX256A16 pin-compatible with CYDMX256B16?
Yes. CYDMX256A16 and CYDMX256B16 share identical pinout, package, and electrical specifications. The 'A' and 'B' suffixes denote minor process or test revisions-not functional or mechanical differences-and both are drop-in replacements per Infineon's continuity policy.
