Description

IDT72801 are dual synchronous (clocked) FIFOs. The device is functionally equivalent to two 72201/72211/72221/72231/72241 FIFOs in a single package with all associated control, data, and flag lines assigned to separate pins.

Each of the two FIFOs (designated FIFO A and FIFO B) contained in the IDT72801 has a 9- bit input data port (DA0 - DA8), DB0 - DB8) and a 9-bit output data port (QA0 - QA8, QB0 - QB8). Each input port is controlled by a free-running clock(WCLKA, WCLKB), and two write enable pins ( WENA1 , WENA2, WENB1, WENB2). Data is written into each of the two arrays on every rising clock edge of the write clock (WCLKA WCLKB) when the appropriate write enable pins are asserted.

The output port of each FIFO bank of the IDT72801 is controlled by its associated clock pin (RCLKA, RCLKB) and two read enable pins ( RENA1, RENA2 , RENB1 , RENB2 ). 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 ( OEA , OEB ) is provided on the read port of each FIFO for three-state output control .

Each of the two FIFOs of the IDT72801 has two fixed flags, empty ( EFA , EFB ) and full ( FFA , FFB ). Two programmable flags, almost-empty ( PAEA , PAEB ) and almost-full ( PAFA , PAFB ), are provided for each FIFO bank to improve memory utilization. If not programmed, the programmable flags default to empty+7 for PAEA and PAEB , and full-7 for PAFA and PAFB .

The IDT72801 architecture lends itself to many flexible configurations such as:
• 2-level priority data buffering
• Bidirectional operation
• Width expansion
• Depth expansion

This FIFO is fabricated using IDTs high-performance submicron CMOS technology.
