Product details
Overview
R1LV5256ESP-7SI#S0 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, used for battery-backed memory in portable instrumentation and embedded control systems.
For engineers reviewing the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#S0 datasheet, R1LV5256ESP-7SI#S0 pinout, R1LV5256ESP-7SI#S0 application, or R1LV5256ESP-7SI#S0 equivalent, key selection criteria include standby current (≤10 µA at +85°C), TTL-compatible I/O, no-refresh operation, and SOP-28 packaging for space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device implements a fully static CMOS memory array with asynchronous parallel interface logic, supporting independent chip select (CS#), output enable (OE#), and write enable (WE#) controls. Its architecture eliminates refresh circuitry and clock dependencies, enabling deterministic read/write timing across voltage and temperature extremes.
All address (A0–A14), data (DQ0–DQ7), and control inputs are TTL-compatible, with three-state outputs enabling OR-tie bus expansion. The memory core retains data down to 2.0V Vcc while drawing ≤10 µA standby current at +85°C, making it suitable for low-power backup retention modes.
Key Specifications

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature specification for the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#S0?
The R1LV5256ESP-7SI#S0 is rated for industrial temperature operation from -40°C to +85°C, as confirmed by its "I" suffix and ordering code "-7SI#S0". This rating applies to all DC and AC electrical characteristics in the official Renesas datasheet R10DS0068EJ0100, including standby current, access time, and data retention behavior across the full range.
Does the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#S0 require an external clock or refresh signal?
No, the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#S0 is a fully static RAM and requires neither an external clock nor periodic refresh cycles. Its CMOS memory array retains data indefinitely as long as power and valid control signals are maintained, simplifying system design and eliminating timing-critical refresh overhead in microcontroller-based applications using the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#S0.
What is the data retention voltage threshold for the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#S0?
The R1LV5256ESP-7SI#S0 maintains data integrity down to Vcc = 2.0 V under data retention conditions (CS# ≥ Vcc − 0.2 V), as specified in the Low Vcc Data Retention Characteristics table on page 12 of the R10DS0068EJ0100 datasheet. At this voltage, standby current remains ≤10 µA at +85°C, enabling reliable operation during brown-out events.
Can the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#S0 be used in a 5V system?
No, the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#S0 is strictly a 2.7–3.6V device. Its absolute maximum Vcc rating is +4.6V, and input high voltage (VIH) is defined up to Vcc + 0.3V - applying 5V violates both supply and input voltage limits and risks permanent damage. For 5V systems, consider alternatives like AS6C4008-70SCN, not the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#S0.
What package type does the R1LV5256ESP-7SI#S0 use, and is it RoHS compliant?
The R1LV5256ESP-7SI#S0 uses a 450-mil 28-pin plastic SOP package (JEDEC MO-012AC, Renesas PRSP0028DB-B). Per Renesas documentation and product marking, it is RoHS compliant and lead-free, meeting EU Directive 2011/65/EU requirements - confirmed in the "Environmental Matters" section of the R10DS0068EJ0100 datasheet and Renesas public compliance portal.
