Product details
Overview
IDT71V256SA12PZI from Renesas Electronics is a 256K (32K × 8-bit) high-speed CMOS static RAM designed for secondary cache in 3.3V processor systems. It features 12ns access time, industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), single 3.3V ±0.3V supply, LVTTL-compatible I/O, and 2mA full-standby current. Used in embedded computing and industrial control where low-power, fast-access SRAM is required.
For engineers reviewing the IDT71V256SA12PZI datasheet, IDT71V256SA12PZI pinout, IDT71V256SA12PZI application, or IDT71V256SA12PZI equivalent, key selection criteria include access timing under CS/OE control, standby power at CMOS-level chip select, TSOP-28 package compatibility, and industrial-grade reliability for mission-critical memory subsystems.
Technical Context
The IDT71V256SA12PZI implements asynchronous SRAM architecture with independent address decoding and bidirectional data I/O lines. Its control logic supports three operating modes: active read/write (CS=L, WE=L or OE=L), output disable (CS=L, OE=H), and two standby states-TTL-level standby (CS=H, ISB ≤20mA) and full CMOS-level standby (CS > VHC, ISB1 ≤2mA).
Timing is governed by overlapping CS and WE signals for write cycles, and CS/OE coordination for read cycles. The device guarantees tAA ≤12ns, tRC =12ns, and tWHZ ≤8ns under industrial conditions (VCC = 3.3V ±0.3V, TA = –40°C to +85°C), with all AC parameters validated using standard 350Ω/5pF test loads per JEDEC JESD-8A.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY62128EV30LL-45ZSXI | 45ns access time, 5V-tolerant I/O, 32K × 8 organization, same TSOP-28 package | Designed for legacy 5V systems; lacks 3.3V-native LVTTL compatibility and industrial-grade 12ns speed | Select only if migrating from older 5V designs with no voltage scaling constraints |
| AS6C4008-12BIN | 12ns access, 3.3V supply, 512K × 8 organization, 32-pin SOP package | Doubles memory density but requires PCB redesign due to larger footprint and different pinout | Choose when higher capacity is needed and board layout can accommodate 32-pin SOP |
Compared with CY62128EV30LL-45ZSXI and AS6C4008-12BIN, the IDT71V256SA12PZI uniquely balances industrial-grade 12ns performance, LVTTL compatibility, and minimal 28-pin TSOP footprint-making it optimal for space-constrained, thermally demanding 3.3V embedded systems requiring proven reliability.

FAQ
What is the maximum guaranteed access time for IDT71V256SA12PZI under industrial conditions?
The IDT71V256SA12PZI has a maximum guaranteed address access time (tAA) of 12ns at VCC = 3.3V ±0.3V and TA = –40°C to +85°C. This value is production-tested and specified in the AC Electrical Characteristics table of the Renesas datasheet (Rev. Jun.02.20). The IDT71V256SA12PZI achieves this timing without wait states in synchronous bus interfaces up to 83 MHz.
Does IDT71V256SA12PZI support true CMOS-level standby, and what is the current draw?
Yes, the IDT71V256SA12PZI supports full CMOS-level standby when CS exceeds VHC (VCC – 0.2V), guaranteeing ISB1 ≤2mA at VCC max and f = 0. This mode is distinct from TTL-level standby (ISB ≤20mA) and is essential for ultra-low-power retention in battery-backed systems. The IDT71V256SA12PZI datasheet confirms this behavior in both DC and AC tables.
Which package type does IDT71V256SA12PZI use, and is it RoHS-compliant?
IDT71V256SA12PZI uses the 28-pin TSOP Type I package (PZG28), measuring 8.1 mm × 13.4 mm with 0.55 mm pitch. Per Renesas ordering information and datasheet footnote, it is a green (lead-free) part compliant with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. The IDT71V256SA12PZI carries the "G" suffix in its orderable code to denote Pb-free construction.
Can IDT71V256SA12PZI operate with 5V-tolerant inputs?
No, the IDT71V256SA12PZI is not 5V-tolerant. Its absolute maximum input voltage is VCC + 0.5V (≤3.85V at VCC = 3.3V), and VIH is specified as 2.0V to VCC + 0.3V. Driving inputs above 3.85V risks permanent damage. Interface with 5V logic requires level translation. The IDT71V256SA12PZI is strictly a 3.3V LVTTL device.
What is the pin configuration difference between IDT71V256SA12PZI and the SOJ-packaged variant IDT71V256SA12YGI?
IDT71V256SA12PZI (TSOP-28) and IDT71V256SA12YGI (SOJ-28) share identical signal pin functions and ordering (A0–A14, I/O0–I/O7, CS, WE, OE, VCC, GND), but differ physically: PZG28 places A10 adjacent to CS, while PJG28 places A10 adjacent to A9. Pin 1 location and mechanical dimensions differ-TSOP has gull-wing leads; SOJ has J-bend. The IDT71V256SA12PZI cannot be substituted for YGI without PCB redesign.
