Product details
Overview
IDT71124S12Y8 from Renesas Electronics is a 128K × 8-bit (1 Mbit) high-speed CMOS static RAM with 12 ns access time, JEDEC center-power/GND pinout for noise reduction, TTL-compatible bidirectional I/O, and single 5 V supply operation. It serves as main or cache memory in embedded controllers, industrial PLCs, and legacy communication interface cards requiring deterministic, no-refresh asynchronous operation.
For engineers reviewing the IDT71124S12Y8 datasheet, IDT71124S12Y8 pinout, IDT71124S12Y8 application, or IDT71124S12Y8 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 12 ns commercial-grade read timing, 32-pin 400-mil SOJ package, JEDEC-compliant power/GND placement, low 160 mA dynamic ICC, and full TTL-level compatibility without level-shifting.
Technical Context
The IDT71124S12Y8 implements fully static asynchronous logic with no clocks or refresh cycles required. Its architecture features independent chip select (CS) and output enable (OE) controls, enabling fast read access (tAA = 12 ns) and rapid output disable (tOHZ = 5 ns), while supporting both CS-controlled and WE-controlled write cycles.
It uses high-reliability CMOS fabrication with input/output capacitance limited to 8 pF each, operates across 0°C to +70°C, and guarantees VIH ≥ 2.2 V and VIL ≤ 0.8 V under 5.0 V ±10% supply - ensuring robust interfacing with legacy TTL bus systems.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed parallel SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY62128EV30LL-12ZXI | 128K × 8, 12 ns, 3.3 V core (5 V tolerant I/O), 32-pin TSOP II | Requires level translation for pure 5 V systems; lower ICC (55 mA) but incompatible VCC range | Select only if migrating to mixed-voltage designs with 3.3 V logic domains |
| AS6C1008-12ZIN | 128K × 8, 12 ns, 5 V, 32-pin SOJ, but with standard corner VCC/GND pinout | Lacks JEDEC center-power/GND; higher noise susceptibility in dense layouts | Prefer when board layout already uses conventional SOJ routing and noise margin is sufficient |
Compared with CY62128EV30LL-12ZXI and AS6C1008-12ZIN, the IDT71124S12Y8 uniquely delivers 5 V-native operation with JEDEC-optimized pinout for noise immunity - making it the only choice for legacy 5 V systems where signal integrity and drop-in compatibility are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the IDT71124S12Y8?
The IDT71124S12Y8 does not use a clock and therefore has no operating frequency specification. Its performance is defined by timing parameters: tRC = 12 ns read cycle time supports effective bus rates up to ~83 MHz in ideal conditions. Real-world throughput depends on system-level address/data setup/hold margins and bus arbitration overhead - not a clock domain.
Is the IDT71124S12Y8 pin-compatible with other speed grades in the same family?
Yes, the IDT71124S12Y8 shares identical pinout and package (32-pin PBG32 SOJ) with IDT71124S15Y8 and IDT71124S20Y8. All variants use the same JEDEC center-power/GND layout, identical address/data/control pin assignments, and TTL-compatible signaling - enabling direct substitution where timing margins allow.
Does the IDT71124S12Y8 require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on control pins?
No, the IDT71124S12Y8 does not require external biasing on CS, OE, or WE. Its inputs meet TTL voltage thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.2 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V) and exhibit low leakage (<5 µA). Pull-ups are only needed if driving from open-collector sources or to enforce known states during reset - not inherent to the IDT71124S12Y8's operation.
Can the IDT71124S12Y8 be used in industrial temperature applications?
No - the IDT71124S12Y8 is specified only for the commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C). Industrial-grade variants exist only for 15 ns and 20 ns speed grades (e.g., IDT71124S15YGI8). Using the IDT71124S12Y8 outside 0°C to +70°C violates its guaranteed AC/DC specifications and may result in timing violations or data corruption.
What is the meaning of "Y8" in the part number IDT71124S12Y8?
The "Y8" suffix in IDT71124S12Y8 indicates tape-and-reel packaging (8 = 8 mm carrier tape) in the 32-pin SOJ (PBG32) format. It denotes that the device ships in EIA-481-compliant 8 mm tape, optimized for automated SMT placement - distinct from the "YG" variant which uses tube packaging.
