Functional Description
The CY7C42X1V are high-speed, low-power, FIFO memories
with clocked read and write interfaces. All are nine bits wide.
Programmable features include Almost Full/Almost Empty
flags. These FIFOs provide solutions for a wide variety of data
buffering needs, including high-speed data acquisition, multi-
processor interfaces, and communications buffering.
These FIFOs have 9-bit input and output ports that are
controlled by separate clock and enable signals. The input port
is controlled by a Free-Running Clock (WCLK) and two Write
Enable pins (WEN1, WEN2/LD).
When WEN1 is LOW and WEN2/LD is HIGH, data is written
into the FIFO on the rising edge of the WCLK signal. While
WEN1, WEN2/LD is held active, data is continually written into
the FIFO on each WCLK cycle. The output port is controlled in
a similar manner by a Free-Running Read Clock (RCLK) and
two Read Enable Pins (REN1, REN2). In addition, the
CY7C42X1V has an Output Enable Pin (OE). The Read
(RCLK) and Write (WCLK) clocks may be tied together for
single-clock operation or the two clocks may be run indepen-
dently for asynchronous read/write applications. Clock
frequencies up to 66 MHz are achievable.
Depth expansion is possible using one enable input for system
control, while the other enable is controlled by expansion logic
to direct the flow of data.
