Product details
Overview
R1RW0408DGE-2PR#B0 from Renesas Electronics is a 4-Mbit high-speed CMOS static RAM organized as 512-kword × 8-bit, operating at 3.3 V ± 0.3 V with 12 ns maximum access time and TTL-compatible I/O. It features center VCC/VSS pinout, low standby current (5 mA max), and is designed for cache and buffer memory in embedded systems requiring wide bit-width, high-density, and zero-clock operation.
For engineers reviewing the R1RW0408DGE-2PR#B0 datasheet, R1RW0408DGE-2PR#B0 pinout, R1RW0408DGE-2PR#B0 application, or R1RW0408DGE-2PR#B0 equivalent, key selection criteria include 36-pin SOJ package compatibility, 12 ns AC timing compliance, CMOS/TTL interface support, data retention down to 2.0 V, and industrial temperature range (0°C to +70°C) suitability.
Technical Context
The R1RW0408DGE-2PR#B0 implements a fully static 6-transistor memory cell architecture with no clock or refresh required. Its control logic uses active-low CS#, OE#, and WE# signals to manage read/write cycles, with equal access and cycle times (12 ns) ensuring deterministic timing behavior in synchronous bus environments.
It supports three power states: active operation (100 mA max ICC), TTL standby (40 mA max ISB), and CMOS standby (5 mA max ISB1), with data retention capability at VCC ≥ 2.0 V. Pinout follows center VCC/VSS configuration to minimize noise coupling and improve signal integrity in high-density PCB layouts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory density | 4 Mbit (512 kwords × 8 bits) - provides byte-wide data path for efficient CPU/cache interfacing |
| Access time | 12 ns (max) - enables direct connection to 80 MHz system buses without wait states |
| Supply voltage | 3.3 V ± 0.3 V - compatible with standard LVTTL and 3.3 V logic families |
| Standby current | 5 mA (max, CMOS mode) - reduces system power during idle periods in portable/embedded applications |
| Data retention voltage | 2.0 V (min) - maintains stored data during brown-out or controlled power-down sequences |
| Operating temperature | 0°C to +70°C - certified for commercial/industrial equipment environments |
| Package | 400-mil 36-pin plastic SOJ - surface-mount compatible with automated assembly and high board density |
Pinout & Package
Package: 400-mil 36-pin plastic SOJ (36P0K), center VCC/VSS configuration, JEDEC-standard footprint for high-density surface mounting.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A18 | Address input | 19-bit address bus supporting full 512-kword decoding; LSB-to-MSB mapping matches standard SRAM controllers |
| I/O1–I/O8 | Data input/output | Bi-directional 8-bit data bus with TTL-compatible drive strength (VOL ≤ 0.4 V @ 8 mA, VOH ≥ 2.4 V @ −4 mA) |
| CS# | Chip select | Active-low enable controlling device activation; must be stable before address setup (tAS = 0 ns) |
| OE# | Output enable | Active-low control for output buffer; tOE = 6 ns ensures fast read response after enable assertion |
| WE# | Write enable | Active-low write strobe; tWP = 8 ns minimum pulse width defines reliable write window |
| VCC / VSS | Power / Ground | Center-placed dual VCC (pins 9, 28) and dual VSS (pins 10, 27) reduce IR drop and improve noise immunity |
| NC | No connection | Pins 19 and 36 are unconnected; must remain floating per design - no external tie required |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Single 3.3 V supply operation | Eliminates need for dual-voltage rails or level shifters in modern 3.3 V system designs |
| Zero-clock static architecture | Removes timing constraints from clock distribution networks, simplifying PCB layout and reducing EMI |
| Equal access and cycle times | Enables predictable bus arbitration and eliminates variable latency in burst-mode memory access |
| TTL-compatible I/O | Direct interface with legacy and contemporary microcontrollers, FPGAs, and ASICs without external buffers |
| Low-power CMOS standby mode | Reduces quiescent current by 87.5% vs. TTL standby, critical for battery-backed or energy-sensitive systems |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IS61LV5128AL-12MLI | Same density, 3.3 V, 12 ns access; 44-pin TSOP-II vs. 36-pin SOJ; higher ICC (120 mA) and ISB (10 mA) | Requires PCB redesign due to different footprint and pinout; better thermal dissipation but larger area | Select when board space allows TSOP-II and higher active current is acceptable |
| MT55L2568R-12G:G | Same organization and speed; 36-pin SOJ package; supports 2.5 V/3.3 V dual supply; lower ISB1 (1 µA) | Compatible pinout but requires voltage translation if host uses strict 3.3 V only; superior ultra-low-power standby | Select for battery-powered or energy-harvesting systems where sub-mA standby is critical |
Compared with R1RW0408DGE-2PR#B0, the IS61LV5128AL-12MLI offers identical timing but demands mechanical redesign, while the MT55L2568R-12G:G preserves SOJ compatibility and cuts standby current by 99.8%, albeit with added supply flexibility that may complicate voltage rail management.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the R1RW0408DGE-2PR#B0?
The R1RW0408DGE-2PR#B0 does not operate on a clock signal-it is a fully static RAM. Its 12 ns access and cycle times correspond to a maximum effective bus frequency of approximately 83 MHz in continuous read/write operations. Timing margins must account for board trace delays and controller setup/hold requirements, but no internal clock limits apply.
Does the R1RW0408DGE-2PR#B0 support data retention during power loss?
Yes, the R1RW0408DGE-2PR#B0 supports data retention at VCC as low as 2.0 V (min), with guaranteed retention current ≤ 400 µA. This feature enables safe holdover during brief brown-outs or controlled power-down sequences, provided CS# remains asserted and input voltages stay within specified limits.
Is the R1RW0408DGE-2PR#B0 pin-compatible with the 10 ns version R1RW0408DGE-0PR?
Yes, the R1RW0408DGE-2PR#B0 is pin-compatible with R1RW0408DGE-0PR-both use identical 36-pin SOJ packaging and pinout. The only difference is AC timing: the -0PR variant guarantees 10 ns access, while the -2PR variant is characterized for 12 ns. No PCB changes are required for substitution where 12 ns timing suffices.
What is the meaning of "L-version" referenced in the data retention specifications for R1RW0408DGE-2PR#B0?
The "L-version" designation in the R1RW0408DGE-2PR#B0 datasheet refers to a specific process variant optimized for ultra-low standby current (5 mA max ISB1) and low-voltage data retention (2.0 V min). All R1RW0408DGE-2PR#B0 units shipped are L-version compliant, as confirmed by Renesas' ordering information and DC characteristics tables.
Can the R1RW0408DGE-2PR#B0 be used in automotive applications?
No-the R1RW0408DGE-2PR#B0 is rated for Standard quality grade (0°C to +70°C), intended for computers, office equipment, and industrial robots. It is not qualified for automotive use (−40°C to +125°C), nor does it meet AEC-Q100 stress testing requirements. Renesas explicitly restricts its use in transportation equipment without prior written consent.
