16Kbit dual-port SRAM — what it does and where it fits
The CY7C136-55JXCT: 16Kbit dual-port asynchronous SRAM organized as 2K x 8 bits. Two independent ports allow simultaneous read or write from two bus masters.
55 ns access time — timing margin for the bus
55 ns access time and 55 ns write cycle time (word/page). Symmetrical read/write window simplifies timing closure in asynchronous designs.
Obsolete — last-time-buy reality
No official successor order code is published for this exact dual-port density and speed grade. The part is no longer manufactured and is not available through the factory channel. For a BOM line that requires this exact order code — for a legacy board repair, a machine-tool controller, or a telecom line card that cannot be redesigned — the only sourcing path is the independent surplus and broker market. No production-status claim is made beyond the Obsolete designation.
Commercial temperature grade — indoor use only
Not suitable for outdoor or unheated deployment without active thermal management.
