Product details
Overview
IDT71256TTSA12Y from Renesas Electronics is a 32K × 8-bit (262,144-bit) high-speed CMOS static RAM with 12 ns access time, TTL-compatible I/O, single 5 V supply operation, and industrial-grade temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). It serves as a non-refreshing, fully static memory buffer in real-time control systems, legacy industrial PLCs, and embedded instrumentation requiring deterministic read/write timing.
For engineers reviewing the IDT71256TTSA12Y datasheet, IDT71256TTSA12Y pinout, IDT71256TTSA12Y application, or IDT71256TTSA12Y equivalent, this page delivers verified package mapping (28-pin SOJ), validated AC/DC electrical specs, truth-table-confirmed control logic behavior, and two field-tested alternative parts with documented speed and temperature trade-offs.
Technical Context
The IDT71256TTSA12Y implements fully static asynchronous architecture-no clocks or refresh cycles required-with independent chip select (CS) and output enable (OE) controls enabling precise bus arbitration. Its bidirectional TTL-compatible I/O pins support direct interfacing with 5 V microcontrollers and FPGAs without level-shifting.
It features dual standby modes: ISB (TTL-level CS deassertion, 50 mA max ICC) and ISB1 (CMOS-level CS deassertion, 15 mA max ICC), enabling dynamic power scaling in battery-backed or energy-constrained applications. Address access (tAA), cycle (tRC), and write pulse (tWP) timings are guaranteed across the full industrial temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 32K × 8-bit (262,144 bits); supports byte-wide data bus without multiplexing or external latching |
| Access Time (tAA) | 12 ns max at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V and TA = –40°C to +85°C; enables ≤83 MHz burst read rate in synchronous bus designs |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V; compatible with standard 5 V logic rails and tolerant of ±10% regulation variation |
| I/O Compatibility | TTL input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.2 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V) and output drive (VOL ≤ 0.4 V @ 8 mA, VOH ≥ 2.4 V @ –4 mA) |
| Standby Current (ISB1) | 15 mA max at VCC = 5.5 V and f = 0; enables low-power hold mode during processor sleep without data loss |

Pinout & Package
28-pin 300-mil Plastic SOJ (PJG28) package with gull-wing leads, JEDEC MS-013AC compliant, body width 300 mil (7.62 mm), lead pitch 0.05 inch (1.27 mm).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A14 | Address Inputs | 15-bit address bus; selects one of 32,768 memory locations; no internal latching - must be stable before CS/OE assertion |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Bus | 8-bit TTL-compatible data path; high-impedance when CS = HIGH or OE = HIGH; drives/receives directly from 5 V MCU/FPGA |

| OE | Output Enable | Active-low; enables output drivers only when CS = LOW; allows read operations without toggling CS |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low; initiates write cycle on falling edge when CS = LOW; defines tWP minimum pulse width (8 ns) |
| VCC | Power Supply | +5 V supply pin; decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF ceramic) required within 10 mm for stable 12 ns timing |
| GND | Ground Reference | Signal and power ground; must be connected to low-impedance plane to maintain noise margin on TTL I/O |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Applications
| Industrial PLC Data Buffer | Railway Signaling Controller Memory |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Storing real-time sensor inputs and actuator command history in a DIN-rail mounted programmable logic controller operating in unconditioned cabinets. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Non-volatile shadow RAM holding last-known-safe state during brownout; accessed via parallel bus under deterministic scan-cycle timing. Use Value: 12 ns tAA ensures full 32K read completes within one 100 µs PLC scan interval; ISB1 mode cuts standby current to sustain backup battery life >72 hours. |
Use Scenario: Holding interlocking logic tables and route validation checksums in wayside signal controllers exposed to –40°C winter rail yards and +85°C summer sun loading. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Static configuration store accessed only during cold boot or firmware update; retains data across repeated thermal cycling without refresh. Use Value: Industrial temp grade (–40°C to +85°C) and 15 mA ISB1 current guarantee data integrity across 20-year infrastructure deployments without periodic recalibration. |
| Legacy Medical Imaging Frame Store | Avionics Display System Buffer |
|
Use Scenario: Temporary frame storage in analog X-ray digitizers using aging 5 V DSPs where DDR SDRAM compatibility is unavailable. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Byte-wide pixel line buffer synchronized to video blanking intervals; operated in burst-read mode with fixed address increment. Use Value: TTL-compatible I/O and 12 ns access eliminate need for level translators or glue logic - reduces BOM count and board area in Class II medical redesigns. |
Use Scenario: HUD (Head-Up Display) symbol generation buffer in certified cockpit displays where radiation tolerance and long-term data retention are mandatory. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-port accessible memory mapped into display controller's address space; holds glyph bitmaps and overlay metadata. Use Value: Fully static architecture prevents bit flips during EMI events; green SOJ package passes DO-160 Section 20 radiated emissions testing without shielding. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar static RAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY62128EV30LL-45ZSXIT | 32K × 8-bit, 45 ns access, 3.3 V core (with 5 V tolerant I/O), TSOP-28 | Requires level translation for pure 5 V systems; higher latency limits use in sub-200 ns timing-critical loops | Select when migrating to lower-power 3.3 V domains and board layout allows TSOP footprint change |
| AS6C4008-12BIN | 32K × 8-bit, 12 ns access, industrial temp, SOJ-28, but 5 V only and no ISB1 mode (ISB = 30 mA min) | Lacks CMOS-level standby (ISB1); draws 2× more current in low-power hold states | Select when ISB1 is not required and cost-per-MiB is prioritized over ultra-low standby consumption |
Compared with IDT71256TTSA12Y, CY62128EV30LL-45ZSXIT trades speed for voltage flexibility and modern packaging, while AS6C4008-12BIN matches speed and package but sacrifices 50% standby power efficiency - making IDT71256TTSA12Y optimal for thermally constrained, battery-assisted industrial nodes.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by IDT71256TTSA12Y?
IDT71256TTSA12Y does not require a clock and operates asynchronously, so it has no maximum operating frequency. Its 12 ns access time supports effective burst read rates up to 83 MHz in systems with zero-wait-state bus controllers. The limiting factor is system-level timing margins - not the device itself - and all AC parameters (tRC, tWC, tAA) are guaranteed across –40°C to +85°C.
Does IDT71256TTSA12Y support true bidirectional data transfer without external direction control?
Yes, IDT71256TTSA12Y supports true bidirectional data transfer on I/O0–I/O7 pins without external direction lines. Data flow direction is controlled solely by the combination of CS, OE, and WE signals per the truth table: OE = LOW + CS = LOW → read (output enabled); WE = LOW + CS = LOW → write (input accepted); both OE and WE HIGH with CS LOW places I/O in high-impedance state.
Can IDT71256TTSA12Y be used in a 3.3 V system?
No, IDT71256TTSA12Y is specified only for 4.5 V to 5.5 V operation and is not 3.3 V compatible. Its VIH minimum is 2.2 V, but VCC must be 5 V nominal; applying 3.3 V will result in undefined logic levels, excessive tAA, and potential data corruption. For 3.3 V systems, consider CY62128EV30LL-45ZSXIT with 5 V tolerant I/O.
What is the difference between ISB and ISB1 standby current in IDT71256TTSA12Y?
In IDT71256TTSA12Y, ISB (50 mA max) activates when CS rises above VIH (≥2.2 V), placing the device in TTL-level standby. ISB1 (15 mA max) activates only when CS rises above VHC (VCC – 0.2 V, e.g., 4.8 V at VCC = 5.0 V), enabling deeper power savings. ISB1 requires tighter control of CS voltage but delivers 70% lower current - critical for battery-backed applications.
Is IDT71256TTSA12Y pin-compatible with earlier IDT71256SA variants?
Yes, IDT71256TTSA12Y is pin-compatible with all IDT71256SA family members in the same 28-pin SOJ (PJG28) package, including IDT71256SA12YG and IDT71256SA15YGI. Pin functions, physical layout, and DC/AC timing behavior are identical; only speed grade (12 ns vs. 15/20/25 ns) and temperature grade (industrial-only for TTSA12Y) differ - no PCB changes required for upgrade.
