Product details
Overview
R1LV5256ESP-7SI#B0 from Renesas Electronics is a 256Kb low-power static RAM organized as 32,768 × 8-bit, operating from a single 2.7–3.6V supply, with 70 ns access time and -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range, packaged in 28-pin SOP. It serves as non-volatile memory buffer in battery-backed systems requiring zero refresh, TTL-compatible interfacing, and ultra-low standby current (1 µA typical at 3.0V).
For engineers reviewing the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#B0 datasheet, R1LV5256ESP-7SI#B0 pinout, R1LV5256ESP-7SI#B0 application, or R1LV5256ESP-7SI#B0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 70 ns read timing, 1 µA standby current, 28-pin SOP package compatibility, and support for OR-tie data bus expansion without clocking circuitry.
Technical Context
The R1LV5256ESP-7SI#B0 implements a fully static CMOS memory array with asynchronous parallel interface, using address latching via A0–A14 inputs and bidirectional DQ0–DQ7 I/O lines. Chip select (CS#), write enable (WE#), and output enable (OE#) control logic enables independent read/write cycles and three-state output management.
Its architecture eliminates refresh circuitry and clocks, relying on stable DC bias for data retention down to 2.0V Vcc. Standby mode is activated by high CS#, disabling internal buffers and reducing ICC to ≤10 µA across full temperature range, while maintaining data integrity without external backup power.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 256 Kbit (32k × 8-bit) - supports byte-wide data transfers in microcontroller peripheral interfaces. |
| Access Time | 70 ns - defines maximum read latency when CS# and OE# are asserted under 3.0V/25°C conditions. |
| Supply Voltage | 2.7–3.6 V - enables direct integration with 3.3V logic domains without level-shifting. |
| Standby Current | 10 µA max at +85°C - ensures multi-year battery life in always-on backup memory applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-power parallel SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IS61LV25616AL-10TLI | 16-bit bus (DQ0–DQ15), 10 ns access, 3.3V only, 44-pin TSOP | Higher bandwidth but requires PCB redesign; unsuitable for 8-bit-only systems | Select only if system demands 16-bit data path and faster timing; not pin-compatible. |
| AS6C4008-70SCN | Same 8-bit bus, 70 ns access, 2.7–3.6V, but 28-pin SOJ package and 25 µA standby current | Higher standby draw reduces battery life in always-on applications | Acceptable for mains-powered systems where standby current is non-critical; different package footprint. |
Compared with IS61LV25616AL-10TLI and AS6C4008-70SCN, the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#B0 uniquely balances 8-bit simplicity, 1 µA standby, and industrial temperature range in a standard 28-pin SOP-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, battery-backed embedded designs where layout reuse and longevity are prioritized over raw speed or bus width.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#B0?
The R1LV5256ESP-7SI#B0 is rated for industrial operation from -40°C to +85°C, as confirmed by its "I" suffix in the ordering code and validated in the DC Operating Conditions table (page 5). This range applies to both active operation and data retention modes, making it suitable for under-hood automotive and outdoor industrial deployments where thermal cycling occurs.
Does the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#B0 require a clock signal or refresh circuitry?
No, the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#B0 is a fully static RAM and requires neither a clock nor periodic refresh. Its internal CMOS latch structure retains data indefinitely as long as Vcc remains within 2.0–3.6V and CS# is held high during standby. This eliminates timing-critical refresh interrupts in microcontroller firmware and simplifies system design.
What package type and pin count does the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#B0 use?
The R1LV5256ESP-7SI#B0 uses a 28-pin plastic SOP (small outline package) with 450-mil width, designated PRSP0028DB-B (28P2W-C). Pinout matches standard 28-pin parallel SRAM layouts, including dedicated A0–A14 address, DQ0–DQ7 data, and CS#/WE#/OE# control lines-enabling drop-in replacement in existing SOP-based designs.
How much current does the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#B0 draw in standby mode?
The R1LV5256ESP-7SI#B0 draws ≤10 µA in standby mode at +85°C and ≤1 µA typical at +25°C with Vcc = 3.0V, as specified in the DC Characteristics table (page 5). This ultra-low ISB1 current enables multi-year operation on primary lithium batteries in remote sensors and portable diagnostics equipment.
Is the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#B0 compatible with 3.3V microcontrollers?
Yes, the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#B0 is fully TTL-compatible with VIH = 2.0V min and VIL = 0.6V max, ensuring reliable interfacing with standard 3.3V microcontrollers (e.g., Renesas RL78/G13, NXP LPC1769) without level-shifting circuitry. Its 2.7–3.6V Vcc range aligns precisely with 3.3V ±10% supply rails.
