The TC55NEM216ASTV is a 4,194,304-bit static random access memory (SRAM) organized as 262,144 words by 16 bits. Fabricated using Toshiba's CMOS Silicon gate process technology, this device operates from a single 2.7 to 5.5 V power supply. Advanced circuit technology provides both high speed and low power at an operating current of 3 mA/MHz (typ) and a minimum cycle time of 55 ns. It is automatically placed in low-power mode at 1 A standby current (typ) when chip enable ( CE ) is asserted high or chip select (CS) is asserted low. There are three control inputs. CE is used to select the device and for data retention control, and output enable ( OE ) provides fast memory access. Data byte control pin ( LB , UB ) provides lower and upper byte access. This device is well suited to various microprocessor system applications where high speed, low power and battery backup are required. And, with a guaranteed operating extreme temperature range of -40 to 85C, the TC55NEM216ASTV can be used in environments exhibiting extreme temperature conditions. The TC55NEM216ASTV is available in a plastic 44-pin thin-small-outline package (TSOP).
