Product details
Overview
IDT71256SA25PZI from Renesas Electronics is a 32K × 8-bit (256 Kbit) high-speed CMOS static RAM with industrial temperature support (–40°C to +85°C), 25 ns access time, TTL-compatible I/O, single 5 V supply operation, and TSOP-28 packaging. It serves as a non-refreshing, fully static memory buffer in embedded controllers, instrumentation front-ends, and legacy bus-based systems requiring deterministic read/write timing.
For engineers reviewing the IDT71256SA25PZI datasheet, IDT71256SA25PZI pinout, IDT71256SA25PZI application, or IDT71256SA25PZI equivalent, key selection criteria include industrial-grade reliability, 25 ns cycle time compliance, low standby current (ISB1 = 15 mA), and compatibility with 5 V TTL-level address/data/control buses in space-constrained PCB layouts using TSOP packaging.
Technical Context
The IDT71256SA25PZI implements fully static asynchronous circuitry-no clocks or refresh required-and uses dual-control enable logic with independent Chip Select (CS) and Output Enable (OE) pins to manage read/write state transitions. Its bidirectional I/O architecture supports direct connection to 5 V TTL buses without level-shifting.
It features two standby modes: TTL-level standby (ISB = 40 mA at CS > VIH) and CMOS-level standby (ISB1 = 15 mA at CS > VHC), enabling power optimization based on system control voltage thresholds. All timing parameters-including tAA (25 ns), tRC (25 ns), and tOE (11 ns)-are guaranteed across the full industrial temperature range.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar static RAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY62256LL-25ZSXIT | Same 32K × 8 organization, 25 ns speed, but 32-pin SOIC package; higher ICC (160 mA vs. 145 mA) | Requires PCB layout change due to 32-pin SOIC vs. 28-pin TSOP; better suited for through-hole prototyping | Select if board redesign is acceptable and SOIC handling is preferred over TSOP reflow constraints |
| AS6C4008-25ZIN | 25 ns speed, industrial temp, but 32-pin SOP package; lower ISB1 (5 µA vs. 15 mA) | Ultra-low standby current ideal for battery-buffered systems; incompatible pinout prevents drop-in use | Choose when micropower standby dominates over footprint compatibility in portable diagnostic tools |
Compared with CY62256LL-25ZSXIT and AS6C4008-25ZIN, the IDT71256SA25PZI uniquely balances industrial temperature assurance, TSOP-28 space efficiency, and proven 5 V TTL interoperability-making it optimal for retrofitting legacy 5 V systems where board area and thermal margin are constrained.

FAQ
What is the operating voltage range for the IDT71256SA25PZI?
The IDT71256SA25PZI operates from 4.5 V to 5.5 V DC, fully compliant with standard 5 V TTL logic supply tolerances. This range ensures robust functionality across industrial power rails with ±10% regulation, and all AC/DC specifications-including 25 ns access time and 15 mA ISB1-are guaranteed across this voltage window and the full –40°C to +85°C temperature range.
Does the IDT71256SA25PZI require a clock or refresh signal?
No, the IDT71256SA25PZI uses fully static CMOS design and requires neither a clock nor periodic refresh. Its asynchronous operation means data retention is maintained indefinitely as long as VCC is applied and CS remains active or in CMOS-level standby (ISB1). This eliminates timing overhead in microcontroller or FPGA memory controllers and simplifies system-level design.
What is the meaning of "PZI" in the part number IDT71256SA25PZI?
In IDT71256SA25PZI, "PZ" denotes TSOP Type I package (PZG28), and "I" indicates Industrial temperature grade (–40°C to +85°C). The "25" specifies 25 ns access time, "SA" identifies the advanced high-speed CMOS SRAM family, and "IDT71256" is the base device type. Thus, IDT71256SA25PZI is the industrial-grade, 25 ns, TSOP-packaged variant of the 32K × 8 SRAM.
Can the IDT71256SA25PZI be used in place of faster 12 ns or 15 ns variants?
Yes, the IDT71256SA25PZI is functionally compatible with faster variants (e.g., IDT71256SA15PZGI) in pinout and interface, but its 25 ns timing limits maximum bus throughput. System timing margins must be recalculated-especially tRC and tAA-to ensure setup/hold compliance. It is commonly selected where cost, availability, or thermal/power trade-offs favor relaxed timing over peak speed.
Is the IDT71256SA25PZI RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
Yes, the IDT71256SA25PZI is a Green-part designation per Renesas' ordering information, confirming compliance with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and halogen-free material requirements. The TSOP-28 (PZG28) package uses lead-free terminations and meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 3 (MSL-3) for standard SMT assembly processes.
