DESCRIPTION:
The IDT72420/72200/72210/72220/72230/72240 SyncFIFO™ are very
high-speed, low-power First-In, First-Out (FIFO) memories with clocked read
and write controls. These devices have a 64, 256, 512, 1,024, 2,048, and 4,096
x 8-bit memory array, respectively. These FIFOs are applicable for a wide
variety of data buffering needs, such as graphics, Local Area Networks (LANs),
and interprocessor communication.
These FIFOs have 8-bit input and output ports. The input port is controlled
by a free-running clock (WCLK), and a Write Enable pin (WEN). Data is written
into the Synchronous FIFO on every clock when WEN is asserted. The output
port is controlled by another clock pin (RCLK) and a Read Enable pin (REN).
The Read Clock can be tied to the Write Clock for single clock operation or the
two clocks can run asynchronous of one another for dual clock operation. An
Output Enable pin (OE) is provided on the read port for three-state control of
the output.
These Synchronous FIFOs have two endpoint flags, Empty (EF) and Full
(FF). Two partial flags, Almost-Empty (AE) and Almost-Full (AF), are provided
for improved system control. The partial (AE) flags are set to Empty+7 and Full-
7 for AE and AF respectively.
These FIFOs are fabricated using high-speed submicron CMOS technol-
ogy.
