What this synchronous SRAM is and where it fits
The Infineon CY7C1361C-100BZXET is a 9Mbit synchronous SRAM organized as 256K x 36 bits, clocked at 100 MHz with an 8.5 ns access time. It is a volatile, parallel-interface memory intended for high-throughput buffer and cache applications in networking switches, base stations, and industrial controllers where deterministic read-write latency matters. The 36-bit word width maps directly to processor buses carrying parity or ECC, eliminating the need for external byte-lane packing.
8.5 ns access time — what it means for the bus
The 8.5 ns access time at 100 MHz allows single-cycle reads from the registered address.
Temperature grade and environment
Rated for -40°C to 125°C ambient, this part suits outdoor telecom cabinets and motor-drive control boards.
Lifecycle reality — EOL hot, act now
Sourcing posture
The CY7C1361C-100BZXET is sourced to order through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time against an RFQ. Given the EOL-hot status, buyers should request a quote promptly to lock allocation before the last-time-buy window closes.
