Product details
Overview
R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 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-designed for battery-backed memory systems in industrial controllers and portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 datasheet, R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 pinout, R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 application, or R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 equivalent, key selection criteria include data retention down to 2.0V, no-refresh operation, OR-tie capable three-state outputs, and TSOP-28 packaging for space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 implements a fully static memory architecture with no internal clocks or refresh circuitry, relying on CMOS latch-based cells fabricated in 0.15 µm process. Its address decoding uses separate row/column decoders feeding a 32k-word × 8-bit memory array, with dedicated sense/write amplifiers and clock generator for timing control.
All control inputs (CS#, WE#, OE#) are active-low and TTL-compatible, enabling direct interfacing with legacy microcontrollers and FPGAs. The common DQ0–DQ7 bidirectional bus supports easy memory expansion via chip select chaining, while output enable prevents bus contention during shared-data-bus operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory size | 256 Kbit (32,768 words × 8 bits) - supports byte-wide data paths without external multiplexing |
| Access time | 55 ns - enables compatibility with 12–15 MHz system buses in legacy embedded designs |
| Supply voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - operates across standard 5V rail tolerances without regulation |
| Standby current | 0.6 µA typical at 5.0V/25°C - extends battery life in always-on backup mode |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IS61LV25616AL-10TLI | 16-bit bus width (256K × 16), 10 ns access, 3.3V only, 44-pin TSOP | Requires PCB redesign for wider data bus and different voltage rail; higher speed but incompatible pinout | Select only if migrating to 3.3V systems and requiring faster access or wider word size |
| AS6C4008-55ZIN | 256K × 16 organization, 55 ns access, 5V supply, 44-pin SOJ | Larger package footprint and 16-bit interface necessitate layout changes; same voltage and timing but not drop-in | Prefer when existing design uses SOJ sockets or requires dual-byte parallel access |
Compared with IS61LV25616AL-10TLI and AS6C4008-55ZIN, the R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 offers pin-compatible 8-bit operation in compact 28-pin TSOP, lower standby current, and proven data retention below 2.5V-making it optimal for space- and power-constrained 5V legacy systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0?
The R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 is rated for continuous operation from –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature. This industrial-grade temperature range ensures reliable performance in harsh environments such as factory automation panels, outdoor telemetry units, and automotive under-hood modules. The device maintains specified timing and leakage parameters across this full range, with standby current rising predictably to 10 µA at +85°C.
Does the R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 require an external clock or refresh signal?
No, the R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 is a fully static RAM with no internal clock and zero refresh requirement. Its memory cells retain data indefinitely as long as power is applied and CS# remains asserted or VCC stays above 2.0V. This eliminates timing-critical refresh cycles, simplifies system design, and removes potential sources of data corruption in interrupt-driven or low-power applications using the R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0.
Can the R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 be used in a 3.3V system?
No, the R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 is specified only for 4.5V to 5.5V operation and is not compatible with 3.3V logic levels or supply rails. Its input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.2V, VIL ≤ 0.8V) and output drive strength (VOH ≥ 2.4V at –1mA) are designed for 5V TTL compatibility. Using it in a 3.3V system risks undervoltage lockout, marginal timing margins, and potential data corruption-R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 must be deployed in properly regulated 5V environments.
What is the meaning of "-7SR" in the R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 part number?
The "-7SR" suffix in R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 indicates a specific revision and assembly variant: "7" denotes the product revision level per Renesas internal change control, and "SR" identifies the manufacturing site and process lot configuration. This suffix does not affect electrical specifications or pinout-it reflects traceability and quality control metadata. All R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 units meet the full R1LP5256E Series specification including 55 ns access time and 0.6 µA standby current.
How does the R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 handle bus contention during multi-device sharing?
The R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 prevents bus contention through its active-low OE# (output enable) and CS# (chip select) controls. When OE# is high, all DQ0–DQ7 pins enter high-impedance state regardless of CS# status. Combined with three-state outputs and OR-tie capability, this allows multiple R1LP5256ESA-7SR#S0 devices to safely share a common data bus without external bus transceivers or arbitration logic.
