FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The L7C185 is a high-performance,
low-power CMOS static RAM. The
storage circuitry is organized as 8,192
as 2 V. The L7C185 and L7CL185-L
consume only 30 µW and 15 µW
(typical) respectively at 3 V, allowing

Inputs and outputs are TTL compat-
ible. Operation is from a single +5 V
power supply. Power consumption
for the L7C185 is 425 mW (typical) at
25 ns. Dissipation drops to 60 mW
(typical) for the L7C185 and 50 mW

q Data Retention at 2 V for Battery
Backup Operation
Memory locations are specified on
address pins A0 through A12. Read-
ing from a designated location is
accomplished by presenting an
address and driving CE1 and OE
LOW, and CE2 and WE HIGH. The
data in the addressed memory
location will then appear on the Data
Out pins within one access time. The
output pins stay in a high-impedance
state when CE1 or OE is HIGH, or CE2
or WE is LOW.
q DESC SMD No. 5962-38294
q Available 100% Screened to
MIL-STD-883, Class B
Two standby modes are available.
Proprietary Auto-Powerdown™
circuitry reduces power consumption
automatically during read or write
accesses which are longer than the
minimum access time, or when the
memory is deselected. In addition,
data may be retained in inactive
storage with a supply voltage as low

• 28-pin Plastic DIP
• 28-pin Ceramic DIP
• 28-pin Plastic SOJ
• 28-pin Ceramic Flatpack
• 28-pin Ceramic LCC
• 32-pin Ceramic LCC
Writing to an addressed location is
accomplished when the active-low
CE1 and WE inputs are both LOW,
and CE2 is HIGH. Any of these
signals may be used to terminate the
write operation. Data In and Data Out
signals have the same polarity.
