Product details
Overview
R1LV0208BSA-5SI#S0 from Renesas Electronics is a 2Mb advanced low-power static RAM (256k × 8-bit), fabricated in 0.15µm CMOS/TFT process, operating from a single 2.7V–3.6V supply with 55 ns access time, 1 µA typical standby current at 3.0V, and TTL-compatible I/O - designed for battery-backed memory systems in portable instrumentation and industrial control.
For engineers reviewing the R1LV0208BSA-5SI#S0 datasheet, R1LV0208BSA-5SI#S0 pinout, R1LV0208BSA-5SI#S0 application, or R1LV0208BSA-5SI#S0 equivalent, key selection criteria include low-voltage data retention down to 2.0V, dual chip select architecture (CS1#/CS2) for seamless memory expansion, and sTSOP-32 packaging compatible with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The R1LV0208BSA-5SI#S0 implements a fully asynchronous SRAM architecture with no clocks or refresh required, relying on static latch-based memory cells and dual-level chip select decoding (CS1# active-low, CS2 active-high) to enable hierarchical memory mapping. Its address buffer, column/row decoders, and sense/write amplifiers are optimized for low-voltage operation across –40°C to +85°C.
It supports three-state bidirectional DQ0–DQ7 I/O with OR-tie capability and uses OE# to prevent bus contention during read cycles. Standby entry is triggered by either CS1# high or CS2 low, enabling flexible power management in multi-chip configurations without external logic.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Memory size | 262,144 × 8-bit (2 Mb); supports byte-wide data transfers without external demultiplexing |
| Supply voltage | 2.7V–3.6V; enables direct interface with 3.3V logic and compatibility with Li-ion battery discharge profiles |
| Access time | 55 ns max; guarantees timing margin for 18 MHz burst-free CPU interfaces in embedded controllers |
| Standby current | 1 µA typical at 3.0V/25°C; reduces battery drain in always-on backup mode for real-time clock subsystems |
| Data retention VCC | 2.0V min; maintains stored data during brown-out or battery swap without external capacitor hold-up |

| Package | 32-pin sTSOP (8 mm × 13.4 mm); surface-mount compatible with automated assembly and thermal relief pads |
Pinout & Package
Package: 32-pin plastic sTSOP (8 mm × 13.4 mm), JEDEC MO-153 compliant, lead-free and RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Vcc | Power supply input | Primary 2.7–3.6V supply rail; requires local 100 nF ceramic decoupling adjacent to pin |
| Vss (GND) | Ground reference | Digital ground return for all I/O and core logic; must be connected to low-impedance PCB plane |
| A0–A17 | Address inputs | 18-bit address bus supporting full 256k-word addressing; A11–A17 used for row decode, A0–A10 for column |
| DQ0–DQ7 | Bidirectional data I/O | 8-bit common data bus with three-state output drivers; supports OR-tie for shared-bus memory expansion |
| CS1# | Chip select 1 (active low) | Primary enable signal; device enters standby when high, regardless of CS2 state |
| CS2 | Chip select 2 (active high) | Secondary enable; combined with CS1# to define active window; controls data retention mode when low |
| WE# | Write enable (active low) | Initiates write cycle when CS1# low and CS2 high; latches DQ data on falling edge |
| OE# | Output enable (active low) | Controls DQ bus direction; prevents contention during read cycles when multiple devices share data lines |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-power SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISSI IS61LV25616AL-10TLI | 256K × 16-bit (512 Kb), 10 ns access, 3.3V only, 44-pin TSOP-II | Wider data bus but larger footprint; higher speed unsuitable for cost-sensitive metering where 55 ns suffices | Select when 16-bit bus alignment or sub-10 ns latency is required; not drop-in due to pin count and width mismatch |
| Cypress CY62128EV30LL-45ZSXIT | 128K × 8-bit (1 Mb), 45 ns access, 2.2–3.6V, 32-pin SOIC | Lower density and slower retention voltage (2.2V min); through-hole package incompatible with high-density SMT layouts | Consider for legacy board redesigns requiring SOIC; insufficient capacity for 256k-word firmware overlays in new designs |
Compared with IS61LV25616AL-10TLI and CY62128EV30LL-45ZSXIT, the R1LV0208BSA-5SI#S0 delivers optimal balance of 2 Mb density, 55 ns timing, 2.0V data retention, and sTSOP-32 footprint - making it the preferred choice for next-generation portable and industrial SRAM applications where space, battery life, and reliability are co-constrained.

FAQ
What is the minimum supply voltage for data retention in R1LV0208BSA-5SI#S0?
The R1LV0208BSA-5SI#S0 maintains stored data at VCC as low as 2.0V, verified per the Low Vcc Data Retention Characteristics table (Page 11). This applies under two conditions: either CS2 ≤ 0.2V or CS1# ≥ VCC−0.2V with CS2 ≥ VCC−0.2V. At 25°C, data retention current is typically 1 µA, rising to 10 µA at 85°C.
Does R1LV0208BSA-5SI#S0 require an external clock or refresh signal?
No, the R1LV0208BSA-5SI#S0 is a fully asynchronous static RAM and requires no clock, refresh, or periodic access to retain data. Its internal latch-based memory cells maintain state indefinitely as long as VCC remains within specification and appropriate chip select conditions are met - a key advantage over DRAM or pseudo-SRAM in battery-critical systems.
Can multiple R1LV0208BSA-5SI#S0 devices share the same DQ bus?
Yes, the R1LV0208BSA-5SI#S0 features three-state outputs with OR-tie capability, allowing multiple units to drive a common DQ0–DQ7 bus without external diodes or resistors. Proper sequencing of CS1#, CS2, and OE# ensures only one device drives the bus at any time, preventing contention during read operations.
What is the meaning of "sTSOP" in the R1LV0208BSA-5SI#S0 package designation?
sTSOP stands for thin shrink small outline package - a 32-pin, gull-wing surface-mount package measuring 8 mm × 13.4 mm with 0.5 mm lead pitch. It offers lower profile and improved thermal performance versus standard TSOP, and is JEDEC MO-153 compliant. The R1LV0208BSA-5SI#S0 uses this package for high-density PCB layouts in portable equipment.
How does chip select logic work in R1LV0208BSA-5SI#S0?
The R1LV0208BSA-5SI#S0 uses dual chip select signals: CS1# (active low) and CS2 (active high). The device is enabled only when CS1# = L and CS2 = H. If CS1# = H or CS2 = L, the device enters standby mode with DQ in high-impedance state. This dual-signal scheme allows flexible memory banking and eliminates false-enable risks from noise on a single select line.
