Product details
Overview
R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 from Renesas Electronics is a 1Mb (128k × 8-bit) low-power static RAM IC operating from 2.7V to 3.6V, featuring 55 ns access time, 0.6 µA typical standby current at 3.0V, and TTL-compatible I/O - designed for battery-backed memory applications in portable instrumentation and industrial control systems.
For engineers reviewing the R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 datasheet, R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 pinout, R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 application, or R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 equivalent, key selection criteria include single-supply operation, no-refresh architecture, dual chip select (CS1#/CS2) for memory expansion, and sTSOP-32 packaging with verified 32-pin pinout and timing compliance across -40°C to +85°C.
Technical Context
The R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 implements a fully static 128k-word × 8-bit memory array using Renesas' 0.15 µm CMOS/TFT process, eliminating refresh circuitry and clock inputs. Its dual chip-select logic (CS1# active-low, CS2 active-high) enables hierarchical memory mapping without external decoding logic.
Read and write operations are controlled via independent OE# and WE# signals with three-state outputs supporting OR-tie bus architectures. Standby mode is entered when CS2 is low or both CS1# is high and CS2 is high, achieving sub-1 µA retention current under Vcc ≥ 2.0V with validated data hold at 85°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory size | 1 Mb (131,072 × 8-bit), enabling compact code/data storage in space-constrained embedded controllers |
| Access time | 55 ns max - supports interface with 12–15 MHz microcontrollers without wait states |
| Supply voltage | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - compatible with Li-ion battery rails and 3.3 V system domains |
| Standby current | 0.6 µA typical at 3.0 V/25°C - extends battery life in always-on backup memory applications |
| Operating temperature | -40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade deployment in harsh environments |
| Data retention Vcc | 2.0 V min - maintains stored data during brown-out or battery-switchover events |

| CS1#, CS2 | Chip select inputs | CS1# active-low + CS2 active-high enable hierarchical memory banking and seamless expansion |
| WE#, OE# | Write and output enable | Independent control of write cycles and output driver state - prevents bus contention during read/write transitions |
| Vcc, GND | Power supply | Single 2.7–3.6 V supply; no separate Vss/Vdd decoupling needed beyond standard 0.1 µF ceramic per power pin |
| NC | No connection | Pin 9 is unconnected - must remain floating; no PCB trace or solder mask required |

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 faster access (45 ns), higher ICC1 (28 mA typ), same 32-pin TSOP package | Better suited for high-speed MCU interfaces but draws more active current | Select when system clock >18 MHz requires zero-wait-state access; verify thermal budget for sustained writes |
| AS6C4008-55TIN | Same 55 ns speed, 1.8 V–3.6 V supply range, 32-pin SOP package (wider 525-mil body) | Broader voltage flexibility but larger PCB footprint; slightly higher ISB (1.5 µA typ) | Choose for designs needing wider Vcc margin or legacy SOP assembly lines; confirm board clearance for 525-mil width |
Compared with IS61LV10248AL-10TLI and AS6C4008-55TIN, the R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 delivers the lowest standby current (0.6 µA) in sTSOP-32, making it optimal for battery-critical applications where active speed is secondary to energy efficiency and compact packaging.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1?
The R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 does not use a clock signal and has no maximum operating frequency specification. Instead, its 55 ns access time defines the minimum read/write cycle period - supporting effective interface rates up to ~12 MHz with appropriate setup/hold timing margins. The R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 relies on asynchronous control signals (CS1#, WE#, OE#) rather than synchronous clocking.
Does the R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 require an external refresh controller?
No, the R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 is a true static RAM and requires no external refresh controller or periodic access. Its CMOS/TFT-based memory cells retain data indefinitely as long as power is applied and standby conditions are met. This eliminates firmware overhead and timing-critical refresh scheduling - a core advantage of the R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 over DRAM or pseudo-SRAM solutions.
Can the R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 be used with a 5 V microcontroller?
The R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 is not 5 V tolerant: its absolute maximum input voltage is Vcc + 0.3 V (≤3.9 V at 3.6 V supply), and VIH is specified at 2.0 V minimum. Direct connection to 5 V logic will damage the device. To interface with 5 V MCUs, use bidirectional level translators (e.g., TXB0108) or ensure the host uses 3.3 V I/O banks. The R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 is designed for 3.3 V system integration.
What is the function of the NC pin on the R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1?
Pin 9 on the R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 is marked NC (No Connection) and must remain unconnected - neither tied to Vcc, GND, nor routed on the PCB. It serves no electrical function and is reserved for future product variants or manufacturing test purposes. Leaving the NC pin floating is mandatory; connecting it may cause undefined behavior or latch-up per Renesas' datasheet guidance.
How does the R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 enter data retention mode?
The R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 enters data retention mode when either (1) CS2 is driven ≤0.2 V, or (2) CS1# is driven ≥Vcc−0.2 V while CS2 is held ≥Vcc−0.2 V or ≤0.2 V. In this state, internal buffers are disabled and ICCDR drops to ≤0.6 µA at 25°C, preserving memory contents down to Vcc = 2.0 V. The R1LV0108ESN-5SI#S1 requires no additional control signals - retention is purely pin-driven.
