description

The SN74ALVC7803, SN74ALVC7805, and SN74ALVC7813 are FIFOs suited for buffering asynchronous data paths at 50-MHz clock rates and 13-ns access times. These devices are designed for 3-V to 3.6-V V_CC operation. The 56-pin shrink small-outline (DL) package offers greatly reduced board space over DIP, PLCC, and conventional SOIC packages. Two devices can be configured for bidirectional data buffering without additional logic.

The write clock (WRTCLK) and read clock (RDCLK) should be free running and can be asynchronous or coincident. Data is written to memory on the rising edge of WRTCLK when WRTEN1 is high, is low, and IR is high. Data is read from memory on the rising edge of RDCLK when,, and are low and OR is high. The first word written to memory is clocked through to the output buffer regardless of the,, and levels. The OR flag indicates that valid data is present on the output buffer.

The FIFO can be reset asynchronously to WRTCLK and RDCLK. must be asserted while at least four WRTCLK and four RDCLK rising edges occur to clear the synchronizing registers. Resetting the FIFO initializes the IR, OR, and HF flags low and the AF/AE flag high. The FIFO must be reset upon power up.

The SN74ALVC7803, SN74ALVC7805, and SN74ALVC7813 are characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C.
