DESCRIPTION:
The IDT72423/72203/72213 SyncFIFO
™
are very high-
speed, low-power First-In, First-Out (FIFO) memories with a
word width of 1 and clocked read and write controls. The
IDT72423/72203/72213 have a 64, 256, and 512 x 1-bit
memory arrays, respectively. These FIFOs are appropriate
for a wide variety of serial data buffering needs, especially
telecommunications applications such as networks, modems,
signal processing, and serial interfaces.
These single-bit FIFOs have 1-bit input (D) and output ports
(Q).The input port is controlled by a free-running clock (WCLK),
and two write enable pins (
WEN1
, WEN2). Data is written into
the Synchronous FIFO on every rising clock edge when the
write enable pins are 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.
The Synchronous FIFOs have two fixed flags, Empty (
EF
)
and Full (
FF
). Two programmable flags, Almost-Empty (
PAE
)
and Almost-Full (
PAF
), are provided for improved system
control. The programmable flags default to Empty+7 and Full-
7 for
PAE
and
PAF
, respectively. The programmable flag
offset is loaded via the Program Inputs (P0 - P7), on the rising
WCLK when the load pin (
LD
) is asserted.
The IDT72423/72203/72213/ are fabricated using IDT’s
high-speed submicron CMOS technology. Military grade prod-
uct is manufactured in compliance with the latest revision of
MIL-STD-883, Class B.

Description
I
Input for serial data.
I
When
RS
is set LOW, internal read and write pointers are set to the first location of the RAM array,
FF
and
PAF
go HIGH, and
PAE
and
EF
go LOW. A reset is required before an initial WRITE after
power-up.
I
Data is written into the FIFO on a LOW-to-HIGH transition of WCLK when the Write
Enable(s) are asserted.
I
If the FIFO is configured to have programmable flags,
WEN1
is the only write enable pin.
When
WEN1
is LOW, data is written into the FIFO on every LOW-to-HIGH transition WCLK. If
the FIFO is configured to have two write enables,
WEN1
must be LOW and WEN2 must be
HIGH to write data into the FIFO. Data will not be written into the FIFO if the
FF
is LOW.
I
The FIFO is configured at reset to have either two write enables or programmable flags. If WEN2/
LD
is HIGH at reset, this pin operates as a second write enable. If WEN2/
LD
is LOW at reset,
this pin operates as a control to load and read the programmable flag offsets. If the FIFO is
configured to have two write enables,
WEN1
must be LOW and WEN2 must be HIGH to write
data into the FIFO. Data will not be written into the FIFO if the
FF
is LOW. If the FIFO is config-
ured to have programmable flags, WEN2/
LD
is held LOW to write or read the programmable flag
offsets.
I
Offsets for the programmable flag registers are entered at these inputs on the rising edge of
WCLK when
LD
and
WEN
are LOW
O Output for serial data.
I
Data is read from the FIFO on a LOW-to-HIGH transition of RCLK when
REN
is asserted.
I
When
REN
is LOW, data is read from the FIFO on every LOW-to-HIGH transition
of RCLK. Data will not be read from the FIFO if the
EF
is LOW.
I
When
OE
is LOW, the data output bus is active. If
OE
is HIGH, the output data bus will be in a
high impedance state.
O When
EF
is LOW, the FIFO is empty and further data reads from the output are inhibited. When
EF
is HIGH, the FIFO is not empty.
EF
is synchronized to RCLK.
O When
PAE
is LOW, the FIFO is almost empty based on the offset programmed into the FIFO.
The default offset at reset is Empty+7.
PAE
is synchronized to RCLK.
When
PAF
is LOW, the FIFO is almost full based on the offset programmed into the FIFO. The
default offset at reset is Full-7.
PAF
is synchronized to WCLK.
When
FF
is LOW, the FIFO is full and further data writes into the input are inhibited. When
FF
is
HIGH, the FIFO is not full.
FF
is synchronized to WCLK.

MILITARY AND COMMERCIAL TEMPERATURE RANGES
SIGNAL DESCRIPTIONS
INPUTS
:
Data In (D)
— Input for serial data.
CONTROLS:
Reset (
RS
)—Reset
is accomplished whenever the Reset
(
RS
) input is taken to a LOW state. During reset, both internal
read and write pointers are set to the first location. A reset is
required after power-up before a write operation can take
place. The Full Flag (
FF
) and Programmable Almost-Full Flag
(
PAF
) will be reset to HIGH after t
RSF
. The Empty Flag (
EF
) and
Programmable Almost-Empty Flag (
PAE
) will be reset to low
after t
RSF
. During reset, the output register is initialized to all
zeros and the offset registers are initialized to their default
values.
Write Clock (WCLK)—A
write cycle is initiated on the
LOW-to-HIGH transition of the write clock (WCLK). Data set-
up and hold times must be met in respect to the LOW-to-HIGH
transition of the write clock (WCLK). The Full Flag (
FF
) and
Programmable Almost-Full Flag (
PAF
) are synchronized with
respect to the LOW-to-HIGH transition of the write clock
(WCLK).
The write and read clocks can be asynchronous or coinci-
dent.
Write Enable 1 (
WEN1
)—If
the FIFO is configured for
programmable flags, Write Enable 1 (
WEN1
) is the only
enable control pin. In this configuration, when Write Enable 1
(
WEN1
) is LOW, data can be loaded into the input register and
RAM array on the LOW-to-HIGH transition of every write clock
(WCLK). Data is stored in the RAM array sequentially and
independently of any on-going read operation.
In this configuration, when Write Enable 1 (
WEN1
) is HIGH,
the input register holds the previous data and no new data is
allowed to be loaded into the register.
If the FIFO is configured to have two write enables, which
allows for depth expansion, there are two enable control pins.
See Write Enable 2 paragraph below for operation in this
configuration.
To prevent data overflow, the Full Flag (
FF
) will go LOW,
inhibiting further write operations. Upon the completion of a
valid read cycle, the Full Flag (
FF
) will go high after tWFF,
allowing a valid write to begin. Write Enable 1 (
WEN1
) is
ignored when the FIFO is full.
Read Clock (RCLK)
— Data can be read on the outputs on
the LOW-to-HIGH transition of the read clock (RCLK). The
Empty Flag (
EF
) and Programmable Almost-Empty Flag (
PAE
)
are synchronized with respect to the LOW-to-HIGH transition
of the read clock (RCLK).
The write and read clocks can be asynchronous or coinci-
dent.
Read Enables (
REN
)—When
the Read Enable (
REN
) is
LOW, data is read from the RAM array to the output register
on the LOW-to-HIGH transition of the read clock (RCLK).
When the Read Enable (
REN
) is HIGH, the output register
holds the previous data and no new data is allowed to be
loaded into the register.
When all the data has been read from the FIFO, the Empty
Flag (
EF
) will go LOW, inhibiting further read operations. Once
a valid write operation has been accomplished, the Empty
Flag (
EF
) will go HIGH after t
REF
and a valid read can begin.
The Read Enable (
REN
) is ignored when the FIFO is empty.
Output Enable (
OE
)—When
Output Enable (
OE
) is en-
abled (LOW), the output buffer receives data from the output
register. When Output Enable (
OE
) is disabled (HIGH), the Q
data output is in a high-impedance state.
Write Enable 2/Load (WEN2/
LD
)—This
is a dual-purpose
pin. The FIFO is configured at Reset to have programmable
flags or to have two write enables, which allows depth expan-
sion. If Write Enable 2/Load (WEN2/
LD
) is set HIGH at Reset
(
RS
= LOW), this pin operates as a second write enable pin.
If the FIFO is configured to have two write enables, when
Write Enable (
WEN1
) is LOW and Write Enable 2/Load
(WEN2/
LD
) is HIGH, data can be loaded into the input register
and RAM array on the LOW-to-HIGH transition of every write
clock (WCLK). Data is stored in the RAM array sequentially
and independently of any on-going read operation.
In this configuration, when Write Enable (
WEN1
) is HIGH
and/or Write Enable 2/Load (WEN2/
LD
) is LOW, the input
register holds the previous data and no new data is allowed to
be loaded into the register.
To prevent data overflow, the Full Flag (
FF
) will go LOW,
inhibiting further write operations. Upon the completion of a
valid read cycle, the Full Flag (
FF
) will go HIGH after t
WFF
,
allowing a valid write to begin. Write Enable 1 (
WEN1
) and
Write Enable 2/Load (WEN2/
LD
) are ignored when the FIFO
is full.
The FIFO is configured to have programmable flags when
the Write Enable 2/Load (WEN2/
LD
) is set LOW at Reset (
RS
= LOW). The IDT72423/72203/72213 devices contain four 8-
bit offset registers which can be loaded with data on the
Program Inputs (P
0
- P
7
). See Figure 3 for details of the size
of the registers and the default values.
If the FIFO is configured to have programmable flags when
the Write Enable 1 (
WEN1
) and Write Enable 2/Load (WEN2/
LD
) are set LOW, data on the Program Inputs (P
0
- P
7
) are
written into the Empty (Least Significant Bit) offset register on
the first LOW-to-HIGH transition of the write clock (WCLK).
Data is written into the Empty (Most Significant Bit) offset
register on the second LOW-to-HIGH transition of the write
clock (WCLK), into the Full (Least Significant Bit) offset
register on the third transition, and into the Full (Most Signifi-
cant Bit) offset register on the fourth transition. The fifth
transition of the write clock (WCLK) again writes to the Empty
(Least Significant Bit) offset register.
