What this SRAM does in the system
The Infineon CY7C1010DV33-10VXI is a 2 Mbit asynchronous SRAM organised as 256K x 8 bits. It talks over a parallel memory interface and delivers a 10 ns access time, which means the bus can run at 100 MHz without wait states if the controller's timing budget allows. It comes in a 36-pin SOJ package (36-BSOJ, 0.400" body width) for surface-mount assembly.
For a system architect, that translates to zero-wait-state reads from a 100 MHz bus clock, or relaxed timing margins at slower clock rates.
Infineon has marked the CY7C1010DV33-10VXI as Last Buy. That means the manufacturer is winding down production and there is a finite window to place final orders. If this part is on your BOM, the procurement decision is time-sensitive: secure your lifetime buy quantity now, or qualify a replacement before the last-time-buy deadline passes.
The 36-SOJ package is a surface-mount footprint with J-bend leads — it takes a standard reflow profile and is inspectable post-solder. No exposed pad, so the thermal path is through the leads; keep the PCB copper pour under the part for a little extra heat spreading.
