DESCRIPTION:
The IDT723631/723641/723651 is a monolithic high-speed, low-power,
CMOS clocked FIFO memory. It supports clock frequencies up to 67 MHz
and has read access times as fast as 12ns. The 512/1,024/2,048 x 36
dual-port SRAM FIFO buffers data from port A to Port B. The FIFO memory
has retransmit capability, which allows previously read data to be ac-
cessed again. The FIFO has flags to indicate empty and full conditions and
two programmable flags (Almost-Full and Almost-Empty) to indicate when a
selected number of words is stored in memory. Communication between
each port may take place with two 36-bit mailbox registers. Each mailbox

register has a flag to signal when new mail has been stored. Two or more
devices may be used in parallel to create wider data paths. Expansion is
also possible in word depth.
These devices are a clocked FIFO, which means each port employs a
synchronous interface. All data transfers through a port are gated to the
LOW-to-HIGH transition of a continuous (free-running) port clock by en-
able signals. The continuous clocks for each port are independent of one
another and can be asynchronous or coincident. The enables for each
port are arranged to provide a simple interface between microprocessors
and/or buses with synchronous control.
The Input Ready (IR) flag and Almost-Full (AF) flag of the FIFO are
two-stage synchronized to CLKA. The Output Ready (OR) flag and Al-
most-Empty (AE) flag of the FIFO are two-stage synchronized to CLKB.
Offset values for the Almost-Full and Almost-Empty flags of the FIFO can be
programmed from port A or through a serial input.

PIN DESCRIPTION
Symbol Name I/O Description
A0-A35 Port-A Data I/O 36-bit bidirectional data port for side A.
AE Almost-Empty O Programmable flag synchronized to CLKB. It is LOW when the number of words in the FIFO is less than or equal to the value in
Flag the Almost-Empty register (X).
AF Almost-Full O Programmable flag synchronized to CLKA. It is LOW when the number of empty locations in FIFO is less than or equal to the
Flag value in the Almost-Full Offset register (Y).
B0-B35 Port-B Data I/O 36-bit bidirectional data port for side B.
CLKA Port-A Clock I CLKA is a continuous clock that synchronizes all data transfers through port-A and may be asynchronous or coincident to CLKB.
IR and AF are synchronous to the LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA.
CLKB Port-B Clock I CLKB is a continuous clock that synchronizes all data transfers through port-B and may be asynchronous or coincident to CLKA.
OR and AE are synchronous to the LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKB.
CSA Port-A Chip I CSA must be LOW to enable a LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA to read or write data on port-A. The A0-A35 outputs are in the
Select high-impedance state when CSA is HIGH.
CSB Port-B Chip I CSB must be LOW to enable a LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKB to read or write data on port-B. The B0-B35 outputs are in the
Select high-impedance state when CSB is HIGH.
ENA Port-A Enable I ENA must be HIGH to enable a LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA to read or write data on port-A.
ENB Port-B Enable I ENB must be HIGH to enable a LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKB to read or write data on port-B.
FS1/ Flag-Offset I FS1/SEN and FS0/SD are dual-purpose inputs used for flag Offset register programming. During a device reset, FS1/SEN and
SEN, Select 1/ FS0/SD selects the flag offset programming method. Three Offset register programming methods are available: automatically
Serial Enable load one of two preset values, parallel load from port A, and serial load.
FS0/SD Flag Offset 0/ When serial load is selected for flag Offset register programming, FS1/SEN is used as an enable synchronous to the LOW-to-
Serial Data HIGH transition of CLKA. When FS1/SEN is LOW, a rising edge on CLKA load the bit present on FS0/SD into the X and Y
registers. The number of bit writes required to program the Offset registers is 18/20/22. The first bit write stores the Y-register
MSB and the last bit write stores the X-register LSB.
IR Input Ready O IR is synchronized to the LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA. When IR is LOW, the FIFO is full and writes to its array are
Flag disabled. When the FIFO is in retransmit mode, IR indicates when the memory has been filled to the point of the retransmit
data and prevents further writes. IR is set LOW during reset and is set HIGH after reset.
MBA Port-A Mailbox I A HIGH level chooses a mailbox register for a port-A read or write operation.
Select
MBB Port-B Mailbox I A HIGH level chooses a mailbox register for a port-B read or write operation. When the B0-B35 outputs are active, a HIGH
Select level on MBB selects data from the mail1 register for output and a LOW level selects FIFO data for output.
MBF1 Mail1 Register O MBF1 is set LOW by the LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA that writes data to the mail1 register. MBF1 is set HIGH by a
Flag LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKB when a port-B readis selected and MBB is HIGH. MBF1 is set HIGH by a reset.
MBF2 Mail2 Register O MBF2 is set LOW by the LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKB that writes data to the mail2 register. MBF2 is set HIGH by a
Flag LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA when a port-A read is selected and MBA is HIGH. MBF2 is set HIGH by a reset.
OR Output Ready O OR is synchronized to the LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKB. When OR is LOW, the FIFO is empty and reads are disabled.
Flag Ready data is present in the output register of the FIFO when OR is HIGH. OR is forced LOW during the reset and goes
HIGH on the third LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKB after a word is loaded to empty memory.
RFM Read From I When the FIFO is in retransmit mode, a HIGH on RFM enables a LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKB to reset the read pointer
Mark to the beginning retransmit location and output the first selected retransmit data.
RST Reset I To reset the device, four LOW-to-HIGH transitions of CLKA and four LOW-to-HIGH transitions of CLKB must occur while RST
is LOW. The LOW-to-HIGH transition of RST latches the status of FS0 and FS1 for AF and AE offset selection.
RTM Retransmit I When RTM is HIGH and valid data is present in the FIFO output register (OR is HIGH), a LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKB
Mode selects the data for the beginning of a retransmit and puts the FIFO in retransmit mode. The selected word remains the initial
retransmit point until a LOW- to-HIGH transition of CLKB occurs while RTM is LOW, taking the FIFO out of retransmit mode.
W/RA Port-A Write/ I A HIGH selects a write operation and a LOW selects a read operation on port A for a LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA. The
Read Select A0-A35 outputs are in the high-impedance state when W/RA is HIGH.
W/RB Port-B Write/ I A LOW selects a write operation and a HIGH selects a read operation on port B for a LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKB. The
Read Select B0-B35 outputs are in the high-impedance state when W/RB is LOW.

Figure 1. Typical Characteristics: Supply vs Clock Frequency
CALCULATING POWER DISSIPATION
The ICC(f) current for the graph in Figure 1 was taken while simultaneously reading and writing the FIFO on the IDT723641 with CLKA and CLKB set
to fS. All data inputs and data outputs change state during each clock cycle to consume the highest supply current. Data outputs were disconnected to
normalize the graph to a zero-capacitance load. Once the capacitance load per data-output channel and the number of IDT723631/723641/723651
inputs driven by TTL HIGH levels are known, the power dissipation can be calculated with the equation below.
With ICC(f) taken from Figure 1, the maximum power dissipation (PT) of these FIFOs may be calculated by:
PT = VCC x [ICC(f) + (N x ICC x dc)] + Σ(CL x VCC2 x fO)
where: N = number of inputs driven by TTL levels
ICC = increase in power supply current for each input at a TTL HIGH level
dc = duty cycle of inputs at a TTL HIGH level of 3.4
CL= output capacitance load
fO= switching frequency of an output
When no reads or writes are occurring on these devices, the power dissipated by a single clock (CLKA or CLKB) input running at frequency fS is
calculated by: PT = VCC x fS x 0.209 mA/MHz

When the option to program the Offset registers serially is chosen, the
Input Ready (IR) flag remains LOW until all register bits are written. The IR
flag is set HIGH by the LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA after the last bit is
loaded to allow normal FIFO operation. Timing diagrams for the serial load
of offset registers can be found in Figure 4.
FIFO WRITE/READ OPERATION
The state of the port-A data (A0-A35) outputs is controlled by the port-A
Chip Select (CSA) and the port-A Write/Read select (W/RA). The A0-A35
outputs are in the high-impedance state when either CSA or W/RA is
HIGH. The A0-A35 outputs are active when both CSA and W/RA are
LOW.
Data is loaded into the FIFO from the A0-A35 inputs on a LOW-to-HIGH
transition of CLKA when CSA and the port-A Mailbox select (MBA) are
LOW, W/RA, the port-A Enable (ENA), and the Input Ready (IR) flag are
HIGH (see Table 2). Writes to the FIFO are independent of any concur-
rent FIFO read (see Figure 5).
The port-B control signals are identical to those of port-A with the excep-
tion that the port-B Write/Read select (W/RB) is the inverse of the port-A
Write/Read select (W/RA). The state of the port-B data (B0-B35) outputs is
controlled by the port-B Chip Select (CSB) and the port-B Write/Read
select (W/RB). The B0-B35 outputs are in the high-impedance state when
either CSB is HIGH or W/RB is LOW. The B0-B35 outputs are active
when CSB is LOW and W/RB is HIGH.
Data is read from the FIFO to its output register on a LOW-to-HIGH
transition of CLKB when CSB and the port-B Mailbox select (MBB) are
LOW, W/RB, the port-B Enable (ENB), and the Output Ready (OR) flag
are HIGH (see Table 3). Reads from the FIFO are independent of any
concurrent FIFO writes (see Figure 6).
The setup- and hold-time constraints to the port clocks for the port Chip
Selects and Write/Read selects are only for enabling write and read op-
erations and are not related to high-impedance control of the data outputs.
If a port Enable is LOW during a clock cycle, the port Chip Select and
Write/Read select may change states during the setup- and hold time
window of the cycle.
When the OR flag is LOW, the next data word is sent to the FIFO output
register automatically by the CLKB LOW-to-HIGH transition that sets the
OR flag HIGH. When OR is HIGH, an available data word is clocked to the
FIFO output register only when a FIFO read is selected by the port-B
Chip Select (CSB), Write/Read select (W/RB), Enable (ENB), and Mailbox
select (MBB).
SYNCHRONIZED FIFO FLAGS
Each IDT723631/723641/723651 FIFO flag is synchronized to its port
Clock through at least two flip-flop stages. This is done to improve the flags’
reliability by reducing the probability of metastable events on their outputs
SIGNAL DESCRIPTION
RESET
The IDT723631/723641/723651 is reset by taking the Reset (RST)
input LOW for at least four port-A Clock (CLKA) and four port-B (CLKB)
LOW-to-HIGH transitions. The Reset input may switch asynchronously to
the clocks. A reset initializes the memory read and write pointers and
forces the Input Ready (IR) flag LOW, the Output Ready (OR) flag LOW,
the Almost-Empty (AE) flag LOW, and the Almost-Full (AF) flag HIGH.
Resetting the device also forces the Mailbox Flags (MBF1, MBF2) HIGH.
After a FIFO is reset, its Input Ready flag is set HIGH after at least two
clock cycles to begin normal operation. A FIFO must be reset after power
up before data is written to its memory.
ALMOST-EMPTY FLAG AND ALMOST-FULL FLAG OFFSET
PROGRAMMING
Two registers in these devices are used to hold the offset values for the
Almost-Empty and Almost-Full flags. The Almost-Empty (AE) flag Offset
register is labeled X, and the Almost-Full (AF) flag Offset register is labeled
Y. The Offset register can be loaded with a value in three ways: one of two
preset values are loaded into the Offset registers, parallel load from port A,
or serial load. The Offset register programming mode is chosen by the flag
select (FS1, FS0) inputs during a LOW-to-HIGH transition on the RST
input (See Table 1).
PRESET VALUES
If the preset value of 8 or 64 is chosen by the FS1 and FS0 inputs at the
time of a RST LOW-to-HIGH transition according to Table 1, the preset
value is automatically loaded into the X and Y registers. No other device
initialization is necessary to begin normal operation, and the IR flag is set
HIGH after two LOW-to-HIGH transitions on CLKA. For relevant Reset and
Preset value loading timing diagrams, see Figure 2.
PARALLEL LOAD FROM PORT A
To program the X and Y registers from port A, the device is reset with
FS0 and FS1 LOW during the LOW-to-HIGH transition of RST. After this
reset is complete, the IR flag is set HIGH after two LOW-to-HIGH transitions
on CLKA. The first two writes to the FIFO do not store data in its memory
but load the Offset registers in the order Y, X. Each Offset register of the
IDT723631, IDT723641, and IDT723651 uses port-A inputs (A8-A0), (A9-
A0), and (A10-A0), respectively. The highest number input is used as the
most significant bit of the binary number in each case. Each register value
can be programmed from 1 to 508 (IDT723631), 1 to 1,020 (IDT723641),
and 1 to 2,044 (IDT723651). After both Offset registers are programmed
from port A, subsequent FIFO writes store data in the SRAM. Timing
diagrams for the parallel load of offset registers can be found in Figure 3.
SERIAL LOAD
To program the X and Y registers serially, the device is reset with FS0/
SD and FS1/SEN HIGH during the LOW-to-HIGH transition of RST. After
this reset is complete, the X and Y register values are loaded bitwise
through the FS0/SD input on each LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA that
the FS1/SEN input is LOW. There are 18-, 20-, or 22-bit writes needed to
complete the programming for the IDT723631, IDT723641, or IDT723651,
respectively. The first-bit write stores the most significant bit of the Y regis-
ter, and the last-bit write stores the least significant bit of the X register.
Each register value can be programmed from 1 to 508 (IDT723631), 1 to
1,020 (IDT723641), or 1 to 2,044 (IDT723651). NOTE:
1 . X register holds the offset for AE; Y register holds the offset for AF.

when CLKA and CLKB operate asynchronously to one another. OR and
AE are synchronized to CLKB. IR and AF are synchronized to CLKA.
Table 4 shows the relationship of each flag to the number of words stored
in memory.
OUTPUT READY FLAG (OR)
The Output Ready flag of a FIFO is synchronized to the port Clock that
reads data from its array (CLKB). When the OR flag is HIGH, new data is
present in the FIFO output register. When the OR flag is LOW, the previ-
ous data word is present in the FIFO output register and attempted FIFO
reads are ignored.
A FIFO read pointer is incremented each time a new word is clocked to
its output register. The state machine that controls an OR flag monitors a
write-pointer and read-pointer comparator that indicates when the FIFO
SRAM status is empty, empty+1, or empty+2. From the time a word is
written to a FIFO, it can be shifted to the FIFO output register in a minimum
of three cycles of CLKB. Therefore, an OR flag is LOW if a word in
memory is the next data to be sent to the FIFO output register and three
CLKB cycles have not elapsed since the time the word was written. The
OR flag of the FIFO remains LOW until the third LOW-to-HIGH transition of
CLKB occurs, simultaneously forcing the OR flag HIGH and shifting the
word to the FIFO output register.
A LOW-to-HIGH transition on CLKB begins the first synchronization cycle
of a write if the clock transition occurs at time tSKEW1 or greater after the
write. Otherwise, the subsequent CLKB cycle may be the first synchroniza-
tion cycle (see Figure 7).
INPUT READY FLAG (IR)
The Input Ready flag of a FIFO is synchronized to the port Clock that
writes data to its array (CLKA). When the IR flag is HIGH, a memory
location is free in the SRAM to write new data. No memory locations are
free when the IR flag is LOW and attempted writes to the FIFO are ignored.
Each time a word is written to a FIFO, its write pointer is incremented.
The state machine that controls an IR flag monitors a write-pointer and
read pointer comparator that indicates when the FIFO SRAM status is full,
full-1, or full-2. From the time a word is read from a FIFO, its previous
memory location is ready to be written in a minimum of three cycles of
CLKA. Therefore, an IR flag is LOW if less than two cycles of CLKA have
elapsed since the next memory write location has been read. The second
LOW-to-HIGH transition on CLKA after the read sets the Input Ready flag
HIGH, and data can be written in the following cycle.
A LOW-to-HIGH transition on CLKA begins the first synchronization cycle
of a read if the clock transition occurs at time tSKEW1 or greater after the
read. Otherwise, the subsequent CLKA cycle may be the first synchroniza-
tion cycle (see Figure 8).
ALMOST-EMPTY FLAG (AE)
The Almost-Empty flag of a FIFO is synchronized to the port Clock that
reads data from its array (CLKB). The state machine that controls an AE
flag monitors a write-pointer and read-pointer comparator that indicates
when the FIFO SRAM status is almost-empty, almost-empty+1, or almost-
empty+2. The almost-empty state is defined by the contents of register X.

LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA begins the first synchronization cycle if it
occurs at time tSKEW2 or greater after the read that reduces the number of
words in memory to [512/1,024/2,048-(Y+1)]. Otherwise, the subsequent
CLKA cycle may be the first synchronization cycle (see Figure 10).
SYNCHRONOUS RETRANSMIT
The synchronous retransmit feature of these devices allow FIFO data to
be read repeatedly starting at a user-selected position. The FIFO is first
put into retransmit mode to select a beginning word and prevent ongoing
FIFO write operations from destroying retransmit data. Data vectors with a
minimum length of three words can retransmit repeatedly starting at the
selected word. The FIFO can be taken out of retransmit mode at any time
and allow normal device operation.
The FIFO is put in retransmit mode by a LOW-to-HIGH transition on
CLKB when the retransmit mode (RTM) input is HIGH and OR is HIGH.
The rising CLKB edge marks the data present in the FIFO output register
as the first retransmit data. The FIFO remains in retransmit mode until a
LOW-to-HIGH transition occurs while RTM is LOW.
When two or more reads have been done past the initial retransmit
word, a retransmit is initiated by a LOW-to-HIGH transition on CLKB when
the read-from-mark (RFM) input is HIGH. This rising CLKB edge shifts the
first retransmit word to the FIFO output register and subsequent reads can
begin immediately. Retransmit loops can be done endlessly while the FIFO
is in retransmit mode. RFM must be LOW during the CLKB rising edge that
takes the FIFO out of retransmit mode.
When the FIFO is put into retransmit mode, it operates with two read
pointers. The current read pointer operates normally, incrementing each
time a new word is shifted to the FIFO output register and used by the OR
and AE flags. The shadow read pointer stores the memory location at the
time the device is put into retransmit mode and does not change until the
device is taken out of retransmit mode. The shadow read pointer is used
by the IR and AF flags. Data writes can proceed while the FIFO is in
retransmit mode, but AF is set LOW by the write that stores (512-Y), (1,024
- Y), or (2,048 - Y) words after the first retransmit word for the IDT723631,
IDT723641, or IDT723651, respectively. The IR flag is set LOW by the
512th, 1,024th, or 2,048th write after the first retransmit word for the
IDT723631, IDT723641, or IDT723651, respectively.
NOTES:
1. X is the Almost-Empty Offset for AE. Y is the Almost-Full Offset for AF.
2. When a word is present in the FIFO output register, its previous memory location is free.
3 . Data in the output register does not count as a "word i n FIFO memory". Since in FWFT mode, the first words written to an empty FIFO goes unrequested to the output register
(no read operation necessary), it is not included in the memory count.
TABLE 4 — FIFO FLAG OPERATION
grammed from port A, or programmed serially (see Almost-Empty flag and
Almost-Full flag offset programming above). The AE flag is LOW when the
FIFO contains X or less words and is HIGH when the FIFO contains (X+1)
or more words. A data word present in the FIFO output register has been
read from memory.
Two LOW-to-HIGH transitions of CLKB are required after a FIFO write
for the AE flag to reflect the new level of fill; therefore, the AE flag of a FIFO
containing (X+1) or more words remains LOW if two cycles of CLKB have
not elapsed since the write that filled the memory to the (X+1) level. An AE
flag is set HIGH by the second LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKB after the
FIFO write that fills memory to the (X+1) level. A LOW-to-HIGH transition of
CLKB begins the first synchronization cycle if it occurs at time tSKEW2 or
greater after the write that fills the FIFO to (X+1) words. Otherwise, the
subsequent CLKB cycle may be the first synchronization cycle (see Figure
9).
ALMOST-FULL FLAG (AF)
The Almost-Full flag of a FIFO is synchronized to the port Clock that
writes data to its array (CLKA). The state machine that controls an AF flag
monitors a write-pointer and read-pointer comparator that indicates when
the FIFO SRAM status is almost-full, almost-full-1, or almost-full-2. The
almost-full state is defined by the contents of register Y. This register is
loaded with a preset value during a FIFO reset, programmed from port A,
or programmed serially (see Almost-Empty flag and Almost-Full flag offset
programming). The AF flag is LOW when the number of words in the FIFO
is greater than or equal to (512-Y), (1,024-Y), OR (2,048-Y) for the
IDT723631, IDT723641, or IDT723651, respectively. The AF flag is HIGH
when the number of words in the FIFO is less than or equal to [512-(Y+1)],
[1,024-(Y+1)], or [2,048-(Y+1)] for the IDT723631, IDT723641, or
IDT723651, respectively. A data word present in the FIFO output register
has been read from memory.
Two LOW-to-HIGH transitions of CLKA are required after a FIFO read
for its AF flag to reflect the new level of fill. Therefore, the AF flag of a FIFO
containing [512/1,024/2,048-(Y+1)] or less words remains LOW if two cycles
of CLKA have not elapsed since the read that reduced the number of
words in memory to [512/1,024/2,048-(Y+1)]. An AF flag is set HIGH by
the second LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA after the FIFO read that
reduces the number of words in memory to [512/1,024/2,048-(Y+1)]. A

When the FIFO is in retransmit mode and RFM is HIGH, a rising CLKB
edge loads the current read pointer with the shadow read-pointer value
and the OR flag reflects the new level of fill immediately. If the retransmit
changes the FIFO status out of the almost-empty range, up to two CLKB
rising edges after the retransmit cycle are needed to switch AE high (see
Figure 12). The rising CLKB edge that takes the FIFO out of retransmit
mode shifts the read pointer used by the IR and AF flags from the shadow
to the current read pointer. If the change of read pointer used by IR and
AF should cause one or both flags to transmit HIGH, at least two CLKA
synchronizing cycles are needed before the flags reflect the change. A
rising CLKA edge after the FIFO is taken out of retransmit mode is the first
synchronizing cycle of IR if it occurs at time tSKEW1 or greater after the
rising CLKB edge (see Figure 13). A rising CLKA edge after the FIFO is
taken out of retransmit mode is the first synchronizing cycle of AF if it occurs
at time tSKEW2 or greater after the rising CLKB edge (see Figure 14).
MAILBOX REGISTERS
Two 36-bit bypass registers are on the IDT723631/723641/723651 to
pass command and control information between port A and port B. The
Mailbox select (MBA, MBB) inputs choose between a mail register and a
FIFO for a port data transfer operation. A LOW-to-HIGH transition on
CLKA writes A0-A35 data to the mail1 register when a port-A Write is
selected by CSA, W/RA, and ENA with MBA HIGH. A LOW-to-HIGH
transition on CLKB writes B0-B35 data to the mail2 register when a port-B
Write is selected by CSB, W/RB, and ENB with MBB HIGH. Writing data to
a mail register sets its corresponding flag (MBF1 or MBF2) LOW.
Attempted writes to a mail register are ignored while its mail flag is LOW.
When the port-B data (B0-B35) outputs are active, the data on the bus
comes from the FIFO output register when the port-B Mailbox select (MBB)
input is LOW and from the Mail1 register when MBB is HIGH. Mail2 data is
always present on the port-A data (A0-A35) outputs when they are active.
The Mail1 register Flag (MBF1) is set HIGH by a LOW-to-HIGH transition
on CLKB when a port-B Read is selected by CSB, W/RB, and ENB with
MBB HIGH. The Mail2 register Flag (MBF2) is set HIGH by a LOW-to-
HIGH transition on CLKA when a port-A Read is selected by CSA, W/RA,
and ENA with MBA HIGH. The data in a mail register remains intact after it
is read and changes only when new data is written to the register. Mail
Register and Mail Register Flag timing can be found in Figure 15
and 16.

NOTES:
1. tSKEW2 is the minimum time between a rising CLKA edge and a rising CLKB edge for AF to transition HIGH in the next CLKA cycle. If the time between the rising CLKB edge
and rising CLKA edge is less than tSKEW2, then AF may transition HIGH one CLKA cycle later than shown.
2. Depth is 512 for the IDT723631, 1,024 for the IDT723641, and 2,048 for the IDT723651.
3. FIFO write (CSA = LOW, W/RA = HIGH, MBA = LOW), FIFO read ( CSB = LOW, W/RB = HIGH, MBB = LOW).

Figure 17. Block Diagram of 512 x 36, 1,024 x 36, 2,048 x 36 Synchronous FIFO Memory with
Programmable Flags used in Depth Expansion Configuration
NOTES:
1. Mailbox feature is not supported in depth expansion applications. (MBA + MBB tie to GND)
2. Transfer clock should be set either to the Write Port Clock (CLKA) or the Read Port Clock (CLKB), whichever is faster.
3. Retransmit feature is not supported in depth expansion applications.
4. The amount of time it takes for OR of the last FIFO in the chain to go HIGH (i.e. valid data to appear on the last FIFO’s outputs) after a word has been written to the first FIFO is the
sum of the delays for each individual FIFO: (N - 1)*(4*transfer clock) + 3*TRCLK, where N is the number of FIFOs in the expansion and TRCLK is the CLKB period.
5. The amount of time is takes for IR of the first FIFO in the chain to go HIGH after a word has been read from the last FIFO is the sum of the delays for each individual FIFO:
(N - 1)*(3*transfer clock) + 2*TWCLK, where N is the number of FIFOs in the expansion and TWCLK is the CLKA period.
