Product details
Overview
R1LV0108ESA-5SI#BX from Renesas Electronics is a 1Mb (128k × 8-bit) low-power static RAM designed for battery-backed and low-voltage embedded memory applications. It operates from a single 2.7–3.6V supply, delivers 55 ns access time, supports industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C), and features ultra-low standby current of 0.6 µA at 3.0V - enabling long-term data retention in portable or energy-constrained systems.
For engineers reviewing the R1LV0108ESA-5SI#BX datasheet, R1LV0108ESA-5SI#BX pinout, R1LV0108ESA-5SI#BX application, or R1LV0108ESA-5SI#BX equivalent, this device serves as a drop-in replacement for legacy 32-pin sTSOP SRAMs requiring TTL-compatible I/O, no refresh, and dual chip select for memory expansion in industrial controllers, medical instrumentation, and real-time data loggers.
Technical Context
The R1LV0108ESA-5SI#BX implements a fully static 128k-word × 8-bit memory array using Renesas's 0.15 µm CMOS process, with integrated address decoding, sense/write amplifiers, and three-state output buffers. Its dual chip select architecture (CS1# active-low, CS2 active-high) enables seamless bank selection and memory mapping without external logic.
All control signals - WE#, OE#, CS1#, and CS2 - are TTL-compatible with VIH ≥ 2.0 V and VIL ≤ 0.6 V, and the device requires no clocks or refresh cycles. Data retention is guaranteed down to 2.0 V with sub-µA current draw when placed in standby via CS2 = low or CS1# = high with CS2 ≥ Vcc − 0.2 V.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-power SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IS61LV10248AL-10TLI | 10 ns access time, 3.3 V only, 32-pin TSOP-II; higher speed but 5× higher standby current (3 µA). | Better suited for high-throughput buffering where latency dominates over power. | Select when system clock >25 MHz and battery life is secondary to throughput. |
| AS6C1008-55PCN | 55 ns access, 2.7–5.5 V supply, 32-pin SOP; wider voltage range but larger 525-mil SOP footprint. | Preferred for legacy board upgrades where sTSOP space is unavailable. | Choose for retrofit designs requiring pin-compatible replacement without layout change. |
Compared with R1LV0108ESA-5SI#BX, IS61LV10248AL-10TLI trades ultra-low power for speed, while AS6C1008-55PCN sacrifices compact sTSOP packaging for broader voltage tolerance and SOP compatibility - making R1LV0108ESA-5SI#BX optimal for new industrial designs prioritizing size, efficiency, and temperature resilience.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by R1LV0108ESA-5SI#BX?
R1LV0108ESA-5SI#BX does not use a clock signal and has no maximum operating frequency specification. Its performance is defined by access timing: 55 ns address-to-data delay (tAA) and 55 ns read cycle time (tRC). System bus speed is determined by these parameters - for example, it supports reliable operation with microcontrollers running at up to 18 MHz when interfaced directly without wait states.
Does R1LV0108ESA-5SI#BX require external refresh circuitry?
No, R1LV0108ESA-5SI#BX is a fully static RAM and requires no refresh cycles or external refresh circuitry. Its CMOS latch-based memory cells retain data indefinitely as long as power is applied and control signals meet setup/hold requirements - eliminating timing-critical refresh overhead present in DRAMs.
Can R1LV0108ESA-5SI#BX operate at 2.5 V?
No, R1LV0108ESA-5SI#BX is specified for 2.7–3.6 V operation only. At 2.5 V, DC characteristics such as VIH (minimum input high voltage) and output drive strength fall outside guaranteed limits, and data retention is not assured. Operation below 2.7 V risks functional failure or data corruption.
What is the function of the NC pin on R1LV0108ESA-5SI#BX?
The NC (No Connection) pin on R1LV0108ESA-5SI#BX is Pin 1 in the 32-pin sTSOP package. It is internally unconnected and must remain floating - no trace, pull-up, or pull-down should be attached. Connecting it may cause unpredictable behavior or damage due to internal floating node coupling.
How does R1LV0108ESA-5SI#BX enter data retention mode?
R1LV0108ESA-5SI#BX enters data retention mode when either (1) CS2 is driven low (≤ 0.2 V), or (2) CS1# is driven high (≥ Vcc − 0.2 V) while CS2 is held ≥ Vcc − 0.2 V or ≤ 0.2 V. In this state, the device draws ≤10 µA at +85°C and retains data down to Vcc = 2.0 V - ideal for battery-backed holdover.
