Product details
Overview
R1LP5256ESA-5SI#B1 from Renesas Electronics is a 256Kb low-power static RAM organized as 32,768 × 8-bit, operating from a single 4.5V–5.5V supply, with 55 ns access time, 0.6 µA typical standby current at 5.0V, and TTL-compatible I/O - deployed in battery-backed memory subsystems for industrial controllers and portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the R1LP5256ESA-5SI#B1 datasheet, R1LP5256ESA-5SI#B1 pinout, R1LP5256ESA-5SI#B1 application, or R1LP5256ESA-5SI#B1 equivalent, key selection criteria include TSOP-28 package compatibility, no-refresh operation, low-voltage data retention down to 2.0V, and OR-tie capable three-state outputs for bus sharing.
Technical Context
The R1LP5256ESA-5SI#B1 implements a fully static CMOS memory architecture with asynchronous parallel interface, no internal clocks or refresh circuitry, and independent chip select (CS#), write enable (WE#), and output enable (OE#) controls. Its address decoding supports full 15-bit addressing (A0–A14) and bidirectional 8-bit data I/O (DQ0–DQ7).
It features dual-mode operation: active read/write cycles with tRC = 55 ns and tAA = 55 ns, and ultra-low-power data retention mode activated by high CS# and Vcc ≥ 2.0V, drawing only 0.6 µA typical at 25°C while preserving stored data.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory size | 256 Kbit (32k × 8-bit) - provides byte-wide storage for microcontroller-based systems without external data width expansion. |
| Access time | 55 ns - enables direct interfacing with legacy 8-bit and 16-bit MCUs running at ≤18 MHz system clock. |
| Supply voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5V logic rails and tolerant of ±5% regulation drift. |
| Standby current | 0.6 µA typical at 5.0V/25°C - extends battery life in always-on backup memory applications beyond 10 years. |
| Data retention Vcc | 2.0 V minimum - retains memory contents during brown-out or battery-switchover without external supervision. |
| I/O interface | TTL-compatible inputs/outputs - eliminates level-shifting requirements when connecting to 5V microcontrollers or FPGAs. |
| Package | 28-pin TSOP (8mm × 13.4mm) - surface-mount footprint optimized for space-constrained industrial PCB layouts. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 28-pin plastic TSOP (Thin Small Outline Package), 8 mm × 13.4 mm body, 0.55 mm lead pitch, JEDEC MO-153 compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Vcc | Power supply | Primary 4.5–5.5V supply rail; decoupling capacitor required within 5 mm for stable operation. |
| Vss (GND) | Ground reference | Common return path for all signals and power; must be connected to low-impedance system ground plane. |
| A0–A14 | Address inputs | 15-bit unidirectional address bus supporting full 32k-word addressing; no latching required. |
| DQ0–DQ7 | Bidirectional data I/O | 8-bit common bus; high-impedance state when CS# high or OE# high, enabling multi-device bus sharing. |
| CS# | Chip select (active low) | Enables device operation; high state forces standby mode and activates data retention below 2.0V Vcc. |
| WE# | Write enable (active low) | Controls write cycle initiation; low with CS# low writes data; high with CS# low enables read or high-Z output. |
| OE# | Output enable (active low) | Gates output drivers; prevents bus contention when multiple SRAMs share DQ lines in OR-tied configurations. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No refresh required | Eliminates external refresh controller or timer overhead, simplifying firmware and reducing BOM count in embedded systems. |
| OR-tie capability | Three-state outputs allow multiple R1LP5256ESA-5SI#B1 devices to share a single 8-bit data bus without external bus transceivers. |
| Low-voltage data retention | Maintains valid memory contents at Vcc ≥ 2.0V and ambient ≤ +85°C, enabling seamless switchover to backup battery without data loss. |
| TTL-compatible signaling | Direct interface with legacy 5V microcontrollers (e.g., 8051, PIC18F, MSP430 with 5V IO) without level translators or pull-up resistors. |
| Easy memory expansion | CS#-based chip selection supports daisy-chained or decoded address mapping for multi-SRAM systems up to 1 Mbyte. |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the R1LP5256ESA-5SI#B1?
The R1LP5256ESA-5SI#B1 is rated for continuous operation from –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature, validated per its DC and AC characteristics tables and qualified under industrial-grade reliability standards. This range applies to both active operation and data retention modes, with standby current specified up to +85°C.
Does the R1LP5256ESA-5SI#B1 require an external clock or refresh signal?
No, the R1LP5256ESA-5SI#B1 is a fully static RAM with no internal clock or refresh circuitry. It retains data indefinitely as long as power is applied and CS# is held high in standby, or low during active read/write cycles - eliminating timing-critical refresh overhead in firmware or hardware design.
Can the R1LP5256ESA-5SI#B1 be used with a 3.3V microcontroller?
The R1LP5256ESA-5SI#B1 requires a 4.5V–5.5V supply and is not 3.3V-compatible. Its inputs are TTL-level (VIH ≥ 2.2V), but Vcc must be ≥4.5V for guaranteed operation. Interfacing with 3.3V MCUs requires level-shifting on all address, control, and data lines - or selection of a native 3.3V SRAM such as the IS61LV25616AL.
What is the meaning of "#B1" in the R1LP5256ESA-5SI#B1 part number?
The "#B1" suffix in R1LP5256ESA-5SI#B1 denotes the assembly site revision code, indicating a specific manufacturing location and process iteration per Renesas's internal tracking. It does not affect electrical specifications, timing, or package dimensions - all R1LP5256ESA-5SI#B* variants share identical functional and parametric behavior.
How does the R1LP5256ESA-5SI#B1 achieve data retention at 2.0V?
The R1LP5256ESA-5SI#B1 enters data retention mode when CS# is held high and Vcc drops to ≥2.0V. In this state, internal buffers are disabled, leakage paths minimized, and the memory array maintained in static hold - drawing only 0.6 µA typical at 25°C while preserving all 256Kb of stored data without external intervention.
