Description
The IDT71256SA is a 262,144-bit high-speed Static RAM
organized as 32K x 8. It is fabricated using high-performance, high-
reliability CMOS technology. This state-of-the-art technology, com-
bined with innovative circuit design techniques, provides a cost-
effective solution for high-speed memory needs.
The IDT71256SA has an output enable pin which operates as fast
as 6ns, with address access times as fast as 12ns. All bidirectional
inputs and outputs of the IDT71256SA are TTL-compatible and
operation is from a single 5V supply. Fully static asynchronous
circuitry is used, requiring no clocks or refresh for operation.
The IDT71256SA is packaged in 28-pin 300-mil Plastic DIP, 28-
pin 300 mil Plastic SOJ and TSOP.

Timing Wa vef orm of Write Cyc le No. 1 (WE Controlled Timing)(1,2,4)
NOTES:
1. A write occurs during the overlap of a LOW CS and a LOW WE.
2. OE is continuously HIGH. If during a WE controlled write cycle OE is LOW, tWP must be greater than or equal to tWHZ + tDW to allow the I/O drivers to turn off and data
to be placed on the bus for the required tDW. If OE is HIGH during a WE controlled write cycle, this requirement does not apply and the minimum write pulse is as
short as the specified tWP.
3. During this period, I/O pins are in the output state, and input signals must not be applied.
4. If the CS LOW transition occurs simultaneously with or after the WE LOW transition, the outputs remain in a high-impedance state.
5. Transition is measured ±200mV from steady state.
