Product details
Overview
IDT71256SA15PZI from Renesas Electronics is a 32K × 8 (256 Kbit) high-speed CMOS static RAM with industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), 15 ns access time, TTL-compatible I/O, and single 5 V supply operation. It serves as main or buffer memory in embedded controllers, data acquisition systems, and legacy industrial PLCs requiring deterministic asynchronous read/write timing.
For engineers reviewing the IDT71256SA15PZI datasheet, IDT71256SA15PZI pinout, IDT71256SA15PZI application, or IDT71256SA15PZI equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed tAA ≤ 15 ns at –40°C to +85°C, ISB1 standby current of 15 mA max, TSOP-28 package footprint compatibility, and OE-controlled output enable timing for bus arbitration.
Technical Context
The IDT71256SA15PZI implements fully static asynchronous architecture-no clocks or refresh required-with independent chip select (CS) and output enable (OE) control enabling flexible memory mapping and multi-device bus sharing. Its bidirectional I/O pins support direct TTL-level interfacing without level-shifting.
Timing is defined by overlapping CS and WE transitions for write cycles, while read cycles rely on CS and OE coordination to manage output impedance states (Low-Z during valid data, High-Z otherwise). All AC parameters-including tCLZ = 4 ns and tOHZ = 6 ns-are specified across the full industrial temperature range and validated under VCC = 5.0 V ±10%.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 32K × 8-bit (262,144-bit total); supports byte-wide parallel data transfers |
| Access Time (tAA) | 15 ns max at –40°C to +85°C; ensures deterministic read latency in real-time control loops |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V; compatible with standard 5 V logic rails and legacy industrial power domains |
| Standby Current (ISB1) | 15 mA max at VCC = 5.5 V; enables low-power hold mode when CS driven above VHC |
| I/O Compatibility | TTL input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.2 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V) and output drive (VOH ≥ 2.4 V @ –4 mA, VOL ≤ 0.4 V @ 8 mA) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar static RAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY62128EV30LL-45ZSXI | 32K × 8, 45 ns access, 3.3 V only, SOIC-28 package | Requires voltage translation for 5 V systems; slower timing invalidates use in <20 ns-critical paths | Select only if migrating to 3.3 V architecture and timing budget permits ≥45 ns latency |
| AS6C4008-15ZIN | 512K × 8, 15 ns access, 5 V, TSOP-32 package | Higher density but incompatible pinout (32-pin vs. 28-pin); requires PCB redesign | Consider for capacity upgrade paths where board revision is feasible and 512 KB is needed |
Compared with CY62128EV30LL-45ZSXI and AS6C4008-15ZIN, the IDT71256SA15PZI uniquely delivers 15 ns performance at 5 V in a drop-in TSOP-28 footprint-preserving legacy timing margins and eliminating level-shifting or layout changes.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the IDT71256SA15PZI?
The IDT71256SA15PZI is rated for industrial temperature operation from –40°C to +85°C. This specification is guaranteed across all AC and DC parameters in the datasheet, including tAA ≤ 15 ns and ISB1 ≤ 15 mA. The "I" suffix in the part number explicitly denotes industrial grade qualification, verified per Renesas' extended temperature test protocols.
Does the IDT71256SA15PZI require a clock or refresh circuit?
No, the IDT71256SA15PZI uses fully static CMOS design and requires no clock signal or periodic refresh cycles. Its operation is purely asynchronous-address, CS, WE, and OE transitions directly control read/write behavior. This eliminates timing controller overhead and makes the IDT71256SA15PZI ideal for simple microcontroller interfaces and deterministic real-time systems.
What package type does the IDT71256SA15PZI use, and is it RoHS-compliant?
The IDT71256SA15PZI uses a 28-pin TSOP Type I (PZG28) package with 400 mil body width and 0.050" lead pitch. Per Renesas' ordering information and datasheet revision history, this variant is a Green part-lead-free and RoHS-compliant, with no restricted hazardous substances. The "G" in the package code confirms compliance.
Can the IDT71256SA15PZI operate from a 3.3 V supply?
No-the IDT71256SA15PZI is specified only for 4.5 V to 5.5 V operation. Its input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.2 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V) and output drive capability (VOH ≥ 2.4 V @ –4 mA) are optimized for 5 V TTL logic families. Attempting 3.3 V operation will violate DC operating conditions and result in undefined behavior or functional failure of the IDT71256SA15PZI.
How does the Output Enable (OE) pin function in the IDT71256SA15PZI?
In the IDT71256SA15PZI, OE is an active-low control that independently gates output drivers. When CS = L and OE = L, data appears on I/O0–I/O7 within tOE ≤ 7 ns. When OE = H (even if CS = L), outputs enter High-Z state-enabling shared bus operation without requiring external tri-state logic. This behavior is confirmed in the Truth Table and timing waveforms of the official Renesas datasheet for IDT71256SA15PZI.
