72 Mbit synchronous SRAM — what it is and where it fits
The CY7C1480V33-167AXC is a 72 Mbit synchronous SRAM organized as 2M x 36 bits, clocked at 167 MHz with a 3.4 ns access time. It uses a parallel interface and operates from a 3.135 V to 3.6 V supply.
167 MHz clock and 3.4 ns access — what they mean for the bus
At 167 MHz the part sustains 167 million transfers per second on the data bus. The 3.4 ns access time means the first read word appears 3.4 ns after the address is latched.
EOL hot — sourcing reality for this part
The CY7C1480V33-167AXC carries an EOL hot lifecycle flag, meaning Cypress (now Infineon) is actively phasing it out. No official successor is listed in the available records. For a BOM that needs this exact order code, the practical path is last-time-buy or surplus-channel procurement. We source and quote it to order against an RFQ through independent distribution; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time. If you are qualifying a new design, look at current-generation synchronous SRAMs in the same 100-LQFP footprint — but verify pin compatibility against the datasheet before committing.
