buffers data from Port A to Port B. FIFO data on Port B can output in 36-bit, 18-

bit, or 9-bit formats with a choice of Big- or Little-Endian configurations.

These devices are synchronous (clocked) FIFOs, meaning each port

employs a synchronous interface. All data transfers through a port are gated

to the LOW-to-HIGH transition of a port clock by enable signals. The clocks for

each port are independent of one another and can be asynchronous or

DESCRIPTION:

BUS-MATCHING 16,384 x 36, 32,768 x 36 and 65,536 x 36

coincident. The enables for each port are arranged to provide a simple

bidirectional interface between microprocessors and/or buses with synchro-

nous control.

Communication between each port may bypass the FIFO via two mailbox

registers. The mailbox registers' width matches the selected Port B bus width.

Each mailbox register has a flag (MBF1 and MBF2) to signal when new mail

has been stored.

Two kinds of reset are available on these FIFOs: Reset and Partial Reset.

Reset initializes the read and write pointers to the first location of the memory array

and selects serial flag programming, parallel flag programming, or one of five

possible default flag offset settings, 8, 16, 64, 256 or 1,024.

Partial Reset also sets the read and write pointers to the first location of the

memory. Unlike Reset, any settings existing prior to Partial Reset (i.e.,

programming method and partial flag default offsets) are retained. Partial Reset

is useful since it permits flushing of the FIFO memory without changing any

configuration settings.

The FIFO has Retransmit capability, a Retransmit is performed after four

clock cycles of CLKA and CLKB, by taking the Retransmit pin, RT LOW while

the Retransmit Mode pin, RTM is HIGH. When a Retransmit is performed the

read pointer is reset to the first memory location.

These devices have two modes of operation: In the IDT Standard mode,

the first word written to an empty FIFO is deposited into the memory array. A

read operation is required to access that word (along with all other words

residing in memory). In the First Word Fall Through mode (FWFT), the first

word written to an empty FIFO appears automatically on the outputs, no read

operation required (Nevertheless, accessing subsequent words does neces-

sitate a formal read request). The state of the BE/FWFT pin during Reset

determines the mode in use.

The FIFO has a combined Empty/Output Ready Flag (EF/OR ) and a

combined Full/Input Ready Flag (FF/IR). The EF and FF functions are

selected in the IDT Standard mode. EF indicates whether or not the FIFO

memory is empty. FF shows whether the memory is full or not. The IR and

OR functions are selected in the First Word Fall Through mode. IR indicates

whether or not the FIFO has available memory locations. OR shows whether

the FIFO has data available for reading or not. It marks the presence of valid

data on the outputs.

The FIFO has a programmable Almost-Empty flag (AE) and a program-

mable Almost-Full flag (AF). AE indicates when a selected number of words

remain in the FIFO memory. AF indicates when the FIFO contains more than

a selected number of words.

FF/IR and AF are two-stage synchronized to the port clock that writes data

into its array. EF/OR and AE are two-stage synchronized to the port clock that

reads data from its array. Programmable offsets for AE and AF are loaded

in parallel using Port A or in serial via the SD input. Five default offset settings

are also provided. The AE threshold can be set at 8, 16, 64, 256 or 1,024

locations from the empty boundary and the AF threshold can be set at 8, 16,

64, 256 or 1,024 locations from the full boundary. All these choices are made

using the FS0, FS1 and FS2 inputs during Reset.

Interspersed Parity is available and can be selected during a Master Reset

of the FIFO. If Interspersed Parity is selected then during parallel programming

of the flag offset values, the device will ignore data line A8. If Non-Interspersed

Parity is selected then data line A8 will become a valid bit.

Two or more devices may be used in parallel to create wider data paths.

In First Word Fall Through mode, more than one device may be connected in

series to create greater word depths. The addition of external components is

unnecessary.

If, at any time, the FIFO is not actively performing a function, the chip will

automatically power down. During the power down state, supply current

consumption (ICC) is at a minimum. Initiating any operation (by activating control

inputs) will immediately take the device out of the Power Down state.

The IDT72V3683/72V3693/72V36103 are characterized for operation

from 0°C to 70°C. Industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) is available

by special order. They are fabricated using IDT’s high speed, submicron

CMOS technology.

PIN DESCRIPTIONS

Symbol Name I/O Description

A0-A35 Port A Data I/O 36-bit bidirectional data port for side A.

AE Almost-Empty Flag O Programmable Almost-Empty flag synchronized to CLKB. It is LOW when the number of words in

(Port B) the FIFO is less than or equal to the value in the Almost-Empty B offset register, X.

AF Almost-Full Flag O Programmable Almost-Full flag synchronized to CLKA. It is LOW when the number of empty

(Port A) locations in the FIFO is less than or equal to the value in the Almost-Full A offset register, Y.

B0-B35 Port B Data I/O 36-bit bidirectional data port for side B.

BE/FWFT Big-Endian/ I This is a dual purpose pin. During Master Reset, a HIGH on BE will select Big-Endian operation.

First Word In this case, depending on the bus size, the most significant byte or word written to Port A is read

Fall Through from Port B first. A LOW on BE will select Little-Endian operation. In this case, the least significant

byte or word written to Port A is read from Port B first. After Master Reset, this pin selects the timing

mode. A HIGH on FWFT selects IDT Standard mode, a LOW selects First Word Fall Through

mode. Once the timing mode has been selected, the level on FWFT must be static throughout

device operation.

BM(1) Bus-Match Select I A HIGH on this pin enables either byte or word bus width on Port B, depending on the state of

(Port B) SIZE. A LOW selects long word operation. BM works with SIZE and BE to select the bus size and

endian arrangement for Port B. The level of BM must be static throughout device operation.

CLKA Port A Clock I CLKA is a continuous clock that synchronizes all data transfers through Port A and can be

asynchronous or coincident to CLKB. FF/IR and AF are synchronized 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 can be

asynchronous or coincident to CLKA. EF/OR and AE are synchronized to the LOW-to-HIGH

transition of CLKB.

CSA Port A Chip I CSA must be LOW to enable to LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA to read or write on Port A. The

Select A0-A35 outputs are in the 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.

Select The B0-B35 outputs are in the high-impedance state when CSB is HIGH.

EF/OR Empty/Output O This is a dual function pin. In the IDT Standard mode, the EF function is selected. EF indicates

Ready Flag whether or not the FIFO memory is empty. In the FWFT mode, the OR function is selected. OR indicates

(Port B) the presence of valid data on the B0-B35 outputs, available for reading. EF/OR is synchronized to the

LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKB.

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.

FF/IR Full/Input O This is a dual function pin. In the IDT Standard mode, the FF function is selected. FF indicates

Ready Flag whether or not the FIFO memory is full. In the FWFT mode, the IR function is selected. IR

(Port A) indicates whether or not there is space available for writing to the FIFO memory. FF/IR is

synchronized to the LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA.

FS0/SD Flag Offset Select 0/ I FS1/SEN and FS0/SD are dual-purpose inputs used for flag offset register programming. During

Serial Data, Reset, FS1/SEN and FS0/SD, together with FS2 select the flag offset programming method.

Three offset register programming methods are available: automatically load one of five preset

values (8, 16, 64, 256 or 1,024), parallel load from Port A, and serial load.

FS1/SEN Flag Offset Select 1/ I

Serial Enable When serial load is selected for flag offset register programming, FS1/SEN is used as an enable

synchronous to the LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA. When FS1/SEN is LOW, a rising edge on

FS2(1) Flag Offset Select 2 I 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 28 for the 72V3683, 30 for the 72V3693, and 32 for the 72V36103.

The first bit write stores the Y-register MSB and the last bit write stores the X-register LSB.

MB A Port A Mailbox I A HIGH level on MBA chooses a mailbox register for a Port A read or write operation.

Select

MB B Port B Mailbox I A HIGH level on MBB chooses a mailbox register for a Port B read or write operation. When the

Select B0-B35 outputs are active, a HIGH level on MBB selects data from the mail1 register for output and

a LOW level selects FIFO data for output.

PIN DESCRIPTIONS (Continued)

MBF1 Mail1 Register Flag O MBF1 is set LOW by a LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA that writes data to the mail1 register.

Writes to the mail1 register are inhibited while MBF1 is LOW. MBF1 is set HIGH by a LOW-to-

HIGH transition of CLKB when a Port B read is selected and MBB is HIGH. MBF1 is set HIGH

following either a Reset (RS1) or Partial Reset (PRS).

MBF2 Mail2 Register Flag O MBF2 is set LOW by a LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKB that writes data to the mail2 register.

Writes to the mail2 register are inhibited while MBF2 is LOW. MBF2 is set HIGH by a LOW-to-

HIGH transition of CLKA when a Port A read is selected and MBA is HIGH. MBF2 is set HIGH

following either a Reset (RS2) or Partial Reset (PRS).

RS1, RS2 Resets I

A LOW on both pins initializes the FIFO read and write pointers to the first locationof memory and

sets the Port B output register to all zeroes. A LOW-to-HIGH transition

on RS1 selects the programming

method (serial or parallel) and one of five programmable flag default offsets. It also configures Port

B for bus size and endian arrangement. Four LOW-to-HIGH transitions of CLKA and four LOW-to-

HIGH transitions of CLKB must occur while RS1 is LOW.

PRS/ Partial Reset/ I This pin muxed for both Partial Reset and Retransmit operations, it is used in conjunction with the RTM

RT Retransmit pin. If RTM is LOW, then a LOW on this pin initializes the FIFO read and write pointers to the first location

of memory and sets the Port B output register to all zeroes. During Partial Reset, the currently

selected bus size, endian arrangement, programming method (serial or parallel), and programmable

flag settings are all retained. If RTM is HIGH, then a LOW on this pin performs a Retransmit and initializes

the read pointer only, to the first memory location.

RTM Retransmit Mode I This pin is used in conjunction with the RT pin. When RTM is HIGH a Retransmit is performed when

RT is taken HIGH.

SIZE(1) Bus Size Select I A HIGH on this pin when BM is HIGH selects byte bus (9-bit) size on Port B. A LOW on this pin

(Port B) when BM is HIGH selects word (18-bit) bus size. SIZE works with BM and BE to select the bus size

and endian arrangement for Port B. The level of SIZE must be static throughout device operation.

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

Read Select transition of CLKA. The A0-A35 outputs are in the HIGHimpedance 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

Read Select transition of CLKB. The B0-B35 outputs are in the HIGH impedance state when W/RB is LOW.

DETERMINING ACTIVE CURRENT CONSUMPTION AND POWER DISSIPATION

The ICC(f) current for the graph in Figure 1 was taken while simultaneously reading and writing a FIFO on the IDT72V3683/72V3693/72V36103 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 IDT72V3683/72V3693/72V36103

inputs driven by TTL HIGH levels are known, the power dissipation can be calculated with the equation below.

CALCULATING POWER DISSIPATION

With ICC(f) taken from Figure 1, the maximum power dissipation (PT) of these FIFOs may be calculated by:

PT = VCC x ICC(f) + Σ(CL x VCC2 x fo)

where:

N = number of used outputs (36-bit (long word), 18-bit (word) or 9-bit (byte) bus size)

CL= output capacitance load

fo= switching frequency of an output

BUS-MATCHING 16,384 x 36, 32,768 x 36 and 65,536 x 36

BIG-ENDIAN/FIRST WORD FALL THROUGH (BE/FWFT)

— ENDIAN SELECTION

This is a dual purpose pin. At the time of Reset, the BE select function is

active, permitting a choice of Big- or Little-Endian byte arrangement for data read

from Port B. This selection determines the order by which bytes (or words) of

data are transferred through this port. For the following illustrations, assume

that a byte (or word) bus size has been selected for Port B. (Note that when

Port B is configured for a long word size, the Big-Endian function has no

application and the BE input is a “don’t care”1.)

A HIGH on the BE/FWFT input when the Reset (RS1) input goes from

LOW to HIGH will select a Big-Endian arrangement. In this case, the most

significant byte (word) of the long word written to Port A will be read from Port

B first; the least significant byte (word) of the long word written to Port A will be

read from Port B last.

A LOW on the BE/FWFT input when the Reset (RS1) input goes from

LOW to HIGH will select a Little-Endian arrangement. In this case, the least

significant byte (word) of the long word written to Port A will be read from Port

B first; the most significant byte (word) of the long word written to Port A will be

read from Port B last. Refer to Figure 2 for an illustration of the BE function. See

Figure 3 (Reset) for an Endian select timing diagram.

— TIMING MODE SELECTION

After Reset, the FWFT select function is active, permitting a choice between

two possible timing modes: IDT Standard mode or First Word Fall Through

(FWFT) mode. Once the Reset (RS1) input is HIGH, a HIGH on the BE/FWFT

input during the next LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA and CLKB will select

IDT Standard mode. This mode uses the Empty Flag function (EF) to indicate

whether or not there are any words present in the FIFO memory. It uses the

Full Flag function (FF) to indicate whether or not the FIFO memory has any

free space for writing. In IDT Standard mode, every word read from the FIFO,

including the first, must be requested using a formal read operation.

Once the Reset (RS1) input is HIGH, a LOW on the BE/FWFT input

during the next LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA and CLKB will select FWFT

mode. This mode uses the Output Ready function (OR) to indicate whether or

not there is valid data at the data outputs (B0-B35). It also uses the Input Ready

function (IR) to indicate whether or not the FIFO memory has any free space

for writing. In the FWFT mode, the first word written to an empty FIFO goes

directly to data outputs, no read request necessary. Subsequent words must

be accessed by performing a formal read operation.

Following Reset, the level applied to the BE/FWFT input to choose the

desired timing mode must remain static throughout FIFO operation. Refer to

Figure 3 (Reset) for a First Word Fall Through select timing diagram.

PROGRAMMING THE ALMOST-EMPTY AND ALMOST-FULL FLAGS

Two registers in the IDT72V3683/72V3693/72V36103 are used to hold

the offset values for the Almost-Empty and Almost-Full flags. The Almost-Empty

flag (AE) Offset register is labeled X and Almost-Full flag (AF) Offset register is

labeled Y. The offset registers can be loaded with preset values during the reset

of the FIFO, programmed in parallel using the FIFO’s Port A data inputs, or

programmed in serial using the Serial Data (SD) input (see Table 1). FS2 FS0/

SD, and FS1/SEN function the same way in both IDT Standard and FWFT

modes.

SIGNAL DESCRIPTION

RESET (RS1, RS2)

After power up, a Reset operation must be performed by providing a LOW

pulse to RS1 and RS2 simultaneously. Afterwards, the FIFO memory of the

IDT72V3683/72V3693/72V36103 undergoes a complete reset by taking its

Reset (RS1 and RS2) input LOW for at least four Port A clock (CLKA) and four

Port B clock (CLKB) LOW-to-HIGH transitions. The Reset inputs can switch

asynchronously to the clocks. A Reset initializes the internal read and write

pointers and forces the Full/Input Ready flag (FF/IR) LOW, the Empty/Output

Ready flag (EF/OR) LOW, the Almost-Empty flag (AE) LOW, and the Almost-

Full flag (AF) HIGH. A Reset (RS1) also forces the Mailbox flag (MBF1) of

the parallel mailbox register HIGH, and at the same time the RS2 and MBF2

operate likewise. After a Reset, the FIFO’s Full/Input Ready flag is set HIGH

after two write clock cycles to begin normal operation.

A LOW-to-HIGH transition on the FlFO Reset (RS1) input latches the

value of the Big-Endian (BE) input for determining the order by which bytes are

transferred through Port B.

A LOW-to-HIGH transition on the FlFO Reset (RS1) input also latches the

values of the Flag Select (FS0, FS1 and FS2) inputs for choosing the Almost-

Full and Almost-Empty offset programming method ( for details see Table 1, Flag

Programming, and Almost-Empty and Almost-Full flag offset programming

section). The relevant Reset timing diagram can be found in Figure 3.

PARTIAL RESET (PRS)

The FIFO memory of the IDT72V3683/72V3693/72V36103 undergoes

a limited reset by taking its Partial Reset (PRS) input LOW for at least four Port

A clock (CLKA) and four Port B clock (CLKB) LOW-to-HIGH transitions. The

RTM pin must be LOW during the time of Partial Reset. The Partial Reset input

can switch asynchronously to the clocks. A Partial Reset initializes the internal

read and write pointers and forces the Full/Input Ready flag (FF/IR) LOW, the

Empty/Output Ready flag (EF/OR) LOW, the Almost-Empty flag (AE) LOW,

and the Almost-Full flag (AF) HIGH. A Partial Reset also forces the Mailbox

flag (MBF1, MBF2) of the parallel mailbox register HIGH. After a Partial Reset,

the FIFO’s Full/Input Ready flag is set HIGH after two Write Clock cycles to begin

normal operation. See Figure 4, Partial Reset (IDT Standard and FWFT

Modes) for the relevant timing diagram.

Whatever flag offsets, programming method (parallel or serial), and timing

mode (FWFT or IDT Standard mode) are currently selected at the time a Partial

Reset is initiated, those settings will be remain unchanged upon completion of

the reset operation. A Partial Reset may be useful in the case where

reprogramming a FIFO following a Reset would be inconvenient.

RETRANSMIT (RT)

The FIFO memory of these devices undergoes a Retransmit by taking its

associated Retransmit (RT) input LOW for at least four Port A Clock (CLKA)

and four Port B Clock (CLKB) LOW-to-HIGH transitions. The Retransmit

initializes the read pointer of FIFO to the first memory location.

The RTM pin must be HIGH during the time of Retransmit. Note that the RT

input is muxed with the PRS input, the state of the RTM pin determining whether

this pin performs a Retransmit or a Partial Reset. See Figure 19 for Retransmit

(Standard IDT mode) and figure 20 for Retransmit (FWFT mode) timing

diagrams.

NOTE:

1. Either a HIGH or LOW can be applied to a “don’t care” input with no change to the logical operation of the FIFO. Nevertheless, inputs that are temporarily “don’t care” (along with unused

inputs) must not be left open, rather they must be either HIGH or LOW.

BUS-MATCHING 16,384 x 36, 32,768 x 36 and 65,536 x 36

NOTE:

1. X register holds the offset for AE; Y register holds the offset for AF.

2. When this method of parallel programming is selected, Port A will assume Non-Interspersed Parity.

3. When IP Mode is selected, only parallel programming of the offset values via Port A, can be performed and Port A will assume Interspersed Parity.

4. IF parallel programming is selected during a Master Reset, then FS0 & FS1 must remain LOW during FIFO operation.

— PRESET VALUES

To load a FIFO’s Almost-Empty flag and Almost-Full flag Offset registers

with one of the five preset values listed in Table 1, the flag select inputs must be

HIGH or LOW during a reset. For example, to load the preset value of 64 into

X and Y, FS0, FS1 and FS2 must be HIGH when RS1 returns HIGH. For

the relevant preset value loading timing diagram, see Figure 3.

— PARALLEL LOAD FROM PORT A

To program the X and Y registers from Port A, perform a Reset with FS2

HIGH or LOW and FS0 and FS1 LOW during the LOW-to-HIGH transition of

RS1. The state of FS2 at this point of reset will determine whether the parallel

programming method has Interspersed Parity or Non-Interspersed Parity.

Refer to Table 1 for Flag Programming Flag Offset setup. It is important to note

that once parallel programming has been selected during a Master Reset by

holding both FS0 & FS1 LOW, these inputs must remain LOW during all

subsequent FIFO operation. They can only be toggled HIGH when future

Master Resets are performed and other programming methods are desired.

After this reset is complete, the first two writes to the FIFO do not store data

in RAM. The first two write cycles load the offset registers in the order Y, X. On

the third write cycle the FIFO is ready to be loaded with a data word. See Figure

5, Parallel Programming of the Almost-Full Flag and Almost-Empty Flag

Offset Values after Reset (IDT Standard and FWFT modes), for a detailed

timing diagram. For Non-Interspersed Parity mode the Port A data inputs used

by the Offset registers are (A13-A0), (A14-A0), or (A15-A0) for the IDT72V3683,

IDT72V3693, or IDT72V36103, respectively. For Interspersed Parity mode

the Port A data inputs used by the Offset registers are (A14-A9, A7-A0), (A15-

A9, A7-A0), or (A16-A9, A7-A0) for the IDT72V3683, IDT72V3693, or

IDT72V36103, respectively. The highest numbered input is used as the most

significant bit of the binary number in each case. Valid programming values for

the registers range from 1 to 16,380 for the IDT72V3683; 1 to 32,764 for the

IDT72V3693; and 1 to 65,532 for the IDT72V36103. After all the offset registers

are programmed from Port A, the FIFO begins normal operation.

INTERSPERSED PARITY

Interspersed Parity is selected during a Master Reset of the FIFO. Refer

to Table 1 for the set-up configuration of Interspersed Parity. The Interspersed

Parity function allows the user to select the location of the parity bits in the word

loaded into the parallel port (A0-An) during programming of the flag offset

values. If Interspersed Parity is selected then during parallel programming of

the flag offset values, the device will ignore data line A8. If Non-Interspersed

Parity is selected then data line A8 will become a valid bit. If Interspersed Parity

is selected serial programming of the offset values is not permitted, only parallel

programming can be done.

— SERIAL LOAD

To program the X and Y registers serially, initiate a Reset with FS2 LOW,

FS0/SD LOW and FS1/SEN HIGH during the LOW-to-HIGH transition of RS1.

After this reset is complete, the X and Y register values are loaded bit-wise

through the FS0/SD input on each LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA that the

FS1/SEN input is LOW. There are 28-, 30- or 32-bit writes needed to complete

the programming for the IDT72V3683, IDT72V3693 or the IDT72V36103,

respectively. The two registers are written in the order Y, X. Each register value

can be programmed from 1 to 16,380 (IDT72V3683), 1 to 32,764 (IDT72V3693)

or 1 to 65,532 (IDT72V36103).

When the option to program the offset registers serially is chosen, the Full/

Input Ready (FF/IR) flag remains LOW until all register bits are written. FF/

IR is set HIGH by the LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA after the last bit is loaded

to allow normal FIFO operation.

See Figure 6, Serial Programming of the Almost-Full Flag and Almost-

Empty Flag Offset Values after Reset (IDT Standard and FWFT Modes).

FIFO WRITE/READ OPERATION

The state of the Port A data (A0-A35) lines is controlled by Port A Chip Select

(CSA) and Port A Write/Read select (W/RA). The A0-A35 lines are in the High-

impedance state when either CSA or W/RA is HIGH. The A0-A35 lines are

active outputs 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 is LOW, W/RA is HIGH, ENA is HIGH, MBA is

LOW, and FF/IR is HIGH (see Table 2). FIFO writes on Port A are independent

of any concurrent reads on Port B.

The Port B control signals are identical to those of Port A with the exception

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) lines is controlled by the

Port B Chip Select (CSB) and Port B Write/Read select (W/RB). The B0-B35

lines are in the high-impedance state when either CSB is HIGH or W/RB is

LOW. The B0-B35 lines are active outputs when CSB is LOW and W/RB is

HIGH.

Data is read from the FIFO to the B0-B35 outputs by a LOW-to-HIGH

transition of CLKB when CSB is LOW, W/RB is HIGH, ENB is HIGH, MBB is

LOW, and EF/OR is HIGH (see Table 3). FIFO reads on Port B are

independent of any concurrent writes on Port A.

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 operations

and are not related to high-impedance control of the data outputs. If a port enable

is LOW during a clock cycle, the port’s Chip Select and Write/Read select may

change states during the setup and hold time window of the cycle.

When operating the FIFO in FWFT mode and the Output Ready flag is

LOW, the next word written is automatically sent to the FIFO’s output register

by the LOW-to-HIGH transition of the port clock that sets the Output Ready flag

HIGH. When the Output Ready flag is HIGH, data residing in the FIFO’s memory

array is clocked to the output register only when a read is selected using the

port’s Chip Select, Write/Read select, Enable, and Mailbox select.

When operating the FIFO in IDT Standard mode, regardless of whether

the Empty Flag is LOW or HIGH, data residing in the FIFO’s memory array is

clocked to the output register only when a read is selected using the port’s

Chip Select, Write/Read select, Enable, and Mailbox select. Port A Write

timing diagram can be found in Figure 7. Relevant Port B Read timing

diagrams together with Bus-Matching and Endian select can be found in

NOTES:

1. When a word loaded to an empty FIFO is shifted to the output register, its previous FIFO memory location is free.

2. Data in the output register does not count as a "word in FIFO memory". Since in FWFT mode, the first word written to an empty FIFO goes unrequested to the output register (no

read operation necessary), it is not included in the memory count.

3. X is the Almost-Empty offset used by AE. Y is the Almost-Full offset used by AF. Both X and Y are selected during a FIFO reset or Port A programming.

SYNCHRONIZED FIFO FLAGS

Each FIFO is synchronized to its port clock through at least two flip-flop

stages. This is done to improve flag-signal reliability by reducing the probability

of metastable events when CLKA and CLKB operate asynchronously to one

another. FF/IR, and AF are synchronized to CLKA. EF/OR and AE are

synchronized to CLKB. Table 4 shows the relationship of each port flag to the

number of words stored in memory.

EMPTY/OUTPUT READY FLAGS (EF/OR)

These are dual purpose flags. In the FWFT mode, the Output Ready

(OR) function is selected. When the Output-Ready flag is HIGH, new data is

present in the FIFO output register. When the Output Ready flag is LOW, the

previous data word is present in the FIFO output register and attempted FIFO

reads are ignored.

In the IDT Standard mode, the Empty Flag (EF) function is selected. When

the Empty Flag is HIGH, data is available in the FIFO’s memory for reading to

the output register. When the Empty Flag is LOW, the previous data word is

present in the FIFO output register and attempted FIFO reads are ignored.

The Empty/Output Ready flag of a FIFO is synchronized to the port clock

that reads data from its array (CLKB). For both the FWFT and IDT Standard

modes, the FIFO read pointer is incremented each time a new word is clocked

to its output register. The state machine that controls an Output Ready flag

monitors a write pointer and read pointer comparator that indicates when the

FIFO memory status is empty, empty+1, or empty+2.

In FWFT mode, 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 the Output Ready flag

synchronizing clock. Therefore, an Output Ready flag is LOW if a word in

memory is the next data to be sent to the FlFO output register and three cycles

of the port Clock that reads data from the FIFO have not elapsed since the time

the word was written. The Output Ready flag of the FIFO remains LOW until the

third LOW-to-HIGH transition of the synchronizing clock occurs, simultaneously

forcing the Output Ready flag HIGH and shifting the word to the FIFO output

In IDT Standard mode, from the time a word is written to a FIFO, the Empty

Flag will indicate the presence of data available for reading in a minimum of two

cycles of the Empty Flag synchronizing clock. Therefore, an Empty Flag is LOW

if a word in memory is the next data to be sent to the FlFO output register and

two cycles of the port Clock that reads data from the FIFO have not elapsed since

the time the word was written. The Empty Flag of the FIFO remains LOW until

the second LOW-to-HIGH transition of the synchronizing clock occurs, forcing

the Empty Flag HIGH; only then can data be read.

A LOW-to-HIGH transition on an Empty/Output Ready flag synchronizing

clock begins the first synchronization cycle of a write if the clock transition occurs

at time tSKEW1 or greater after the write. Otherwise, the subsequent clock cycle

can be the first synchronization cycle (see Figures 11 and 12).

FULL/INPUT READY FLAGS (FF/IR)

This is a dual purpose flag. In FWFT mode, the Input Ready (IR) function

is selected. In IDT Standard mode, the Full Flag (FF) function is selected. For

both timing modes, when the Full/Input Ready flag is HIGH, a memory location

is free in the FIFO to receive new data. No memory locations are free when

the Full/Input Ready flag is LOW and attempted writes to the FIFO are ignored.

The Full/Input Ready flag of a FlFO is synchronized to the port clock that

writes data to its array (CLKA). For both FWFT and IDT Standard modes, each

time a word is written to a FIFO, its write pointer is incremented. The state machine

that controls a Full/Input Ready flag monitors a write pointer and read pointer

comparator that indicates when the FlFO memory 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 to in a minimum of two cycles of the Full/Input Ready flag

synchronizing clock. Therefore, an Full/Input Ready flag is LOW if less than

two cycles of the Full/Input Ready flag synchronizing clock have elapsed since

the next memory write location has been read. The second LOW-to-HIGH

transition on the Full/Input Ready flag synchronizing clock after the read sets

the Full/Input Ready flag HIGH.

A LOW-to-HIGH transition on a Full/Input Ready flag synchronizing clock

begins the first synchronization cycle of a read if the clock transition occurs at

time tSKEW1 or greater after the read. Otherwise, the subsequent clock cycle

can be the first synchronization cycle (see Figures 13 and 14).

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 Almost-

Empty flag monitors a write pointer and read pointer comparator that indicates

when the FIFO memory status is almost-empty, almost-empty+1, or almost-

empty+2. The Almost-Empty state is defined by the contents of register X. These

registers are loaded with preset values during a FIFO reset, programmed from

Port A, or programmed serially (see Almost-Empty flag and Almost-Full flag

offset programming section). An Almost-Empty flag is LOW when its FIFO

contains X or less words and is HIGH when its FIFO contains (X+1) or more

words. Note that a data word present in the FIFO output register has been read

from memory.

Two LOW-to-HIGH transitions of the Almost-Empty flag synchronizing

clock are required after a FIFO write for its Almost-Empty flag to reflect the new

level of fill. Therefore, the Almost-Empty flag of a FIFO containing (X+1) or more

words remains LOW if two cycles of its synchronizing clock have not elapsed

since the write that filled the memory to the (X+1) level. An Almost-Empty flag

is set HIGH by the second LOW-to-HIGH transition of its synchronizing clock

after the FIFO write that fills memory to the (X+1) level. A LOW-to-HIGH

transition of an Almost-Empty flag synchronizing clock begins the first synchro-

nization cycle if it occurs at time tSKEW2 or greater after the write that fills the FIFO

to (X+1) words. Otherwise, the subsequent synchronizing clock cycle may be

the first synchronization cycle. (See Figure 15).

ALMOST-FULL FLAG (AF)

The Almost-Full flag of a FIFO is synchronized to the port clock that writes

data to its array. The state machine that controls an Almost-Full flag monitors

a write pointer and read pointer comparator that indicates when the FIFO

memory status is almost-full, almost-full-1, or almost-full-2. The Almost-Full state

is defined by the contents of register Y. These registers are loaded with preset

values during a FlFO reset or, programmed from Port A, or programmed

serially (see Almost-Empty flag and Almost-Full flag offset programming

section). An Almost-Full flag is LOW when the number of words in its FIFO is

greater than or equal to (16,384-Y), (32,768-Y), or (65,536-Y) for the

IDT72V3683, IDT72V3693, or IDT72V36103 respectively. An Almost-Full

flag is HIGH when the number of words in its FIFO is less than or equal to

[16,384-(Y+1)], [32,768-(Y+1)], or [65,536-(Y+1)] for the IDT72V3683,

IDT72V3693, or IDT72V36103 respectively. Note that a data word present

in the FIFO output register has been read from memory.

Two LOW-to-HIGH transitions of the Almost-Full flag synchronizing clock

are required after a FIFO read for its Almost-Full flag to reflect the new level

of fill. Therefore, the Almost-Full flag of a FIFO containing [16,384/32,768/

65,536-(Y+1)] or less words remains LOW if two cycles of its synchronizing

clock have not elapsed since the read that reduced the number of words in

memory to [16,384/32,768/65,536-(Y+1)]. An Almost-Full flag is set HIGH by

the second LOW-to-HIGH transition of its synchronizing clock after the FIFO

read that reduces the number of words in memory to

[16,384/32,768/65,536-(Y+1)]. A LOW-to-HIGH transition of an Almost-Full

flag synchronizing clock begins the first synchronization cycle if it occurs at time

to [16,384/32,768/65,536-(Y+1)]. Otherwise, the subsequent synchronizing

clock cycle may be the first synchronization cycle (see Figure 16).

MAILBOX REGISTERS

Two 36-bit bypass registers are on the IDT72V3683/72V3693/72V36103

to pass command and control information between Port A and Port B without

putting it in queue. The Mailbox select (MBA, MBB) inputs choose between

a mail register and a FIFO for a port data transfer operation. The usable width

of both the Mail1 and Mail2 Registers matches the selected bus size for Port B.

A LOW-to-HIGH transition on CLKA writes data to the Mail1 Register when

a Port A write is selected by CSA, W/RA, and ENA with MBA HIGH. If the

selected Port B bus size is 36 bits, the usable width of the Mail1 Register employs

data lines A0-A35. If the selected Port B bus size is 18 bits, then the usable width

of the Mail1 Register employs data lines A0-A17. (In this case, A18-A35 are

don’t care inputs.) If the selected Port B bus size is 9 bits, then the usable width

of the Mail1 Register employs data lines A0-A8. (In this case, A9-A35 are don’t

care inputs.)

A LOW-to-HIGH transition on CLKB writes B0-B35 data to the Mail2

HIGH. If the selected Port B bus size is 36 bits, the usable width of the Mail2

employs data lines B0-B35. If the selected Port B bus size is 18 bits, then the

usable width of the Mail2 Register employs data lines B0-B17. (In this case,

B18-B35 are don’t care inputs.) If the selected Port B bus size is 9 bits, then

the usable width of the Mail2 Register employs data lines B0-B8. (In this case,

B9-B35 are don’t care inputs.)

Writing data to a mail register sets its corresponding flag (MBF1 or

MBF2) LOW. Attempted writes to a mail register are ignored while the mail

flag is LOW.

When data outputs of a port are active, the data on the bus comes from

the FIFO output register when the port Mailbox select input is LOW and from

the mail register when the port Mailbox select input is HIGH.

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. For a 36-bit bus size, 36 bits of mailbox data are placed on

B0-B35. For an 18-bit bus size, 18 bits of mailbox data are placed on B0-B17.

(In this case, B18-B35 are indeterminate.) For a 9-bit bus size, 9 bits of mailbox

data are placed on B0-B8. (In this case, B9-B35 are indeterminate.)

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.

For a 36-bit bus size, 36 bits of mailbox data are placed on A0-A35. For

an 18-bit bus size, 18 bits of mailbox data are placed on A0-A17. (In this case,

A18-A35 are indeterminate.) For a 9-bit bus size, 9 bits of mailbox data are

placed on A0-A8. (In this case, A9-A35 are indeterminate.)

The data in a mail register remains intact after it is read and changes only

when new data is written to the register. The Endian select feature has no effect

on mailbox data. For mail register and mail register flag timing diagrams, see

Figure 17 and 18.

BUS SIZING

The Port B bus can be configured in a 36-bit long word, 18-bit word, or

9-bit byte format for data read from the FIFO. The levels applied to the Port B

Bus Size select (SIZE) and the Bus-Match select (BM) determine the Port B bus

size. These levels should be static throughout FIFO operation. Both bus size

selections are implemented at the completion of Reset, by the time the Full/Input

Ready flag is set HIGH, as shown in Figure 2.

Two different methods for sequencing data transfer are available for Port

B when the bus size selection is either byte-or word-size. They are referred

to as Big-Endian (most significant byte first) and Little-Endian (least significant

byte first). The level applied to the Big-Endian select (BE) input during the LOW-

to-HIGH transition of RS1 selects the endian method that will be active during

FIFO operation. BE is a don’t care input when the bus size selected for Port

B is long word. The endian method is implemented at the completion of Reset,

by the time the Full/Input Ready flag is set HIGH, as shown in Figure 2.

Only 36-bit long word data is written to or read from the FIFO memory on

the IDT72V3683/72V3693/72V36103. Bus-matching operations are done

after data is read from the FIFO RAM. These bus-matching operations are not

available when transferring data via mailbox registers. Furthermore, both the

word- and byte-size bus selections limit the width of the data bus that can be used

for mail register operations. In this case, only those byte lanes belonging to the

selected word- or byte-size bus can carry mailbox data. The remaining data

outputs will be indeterminate. The remaining data inputs will be don’t care inputs.

For example, when a word-size bus is selected, then mailbox data can be

transmitted only between A0-A17 and B0-B17. When a byte-size bus is

selected, then mailbox data can be transmitted only between A0-A8 and B0-

B8. (See Figures 17 and 18).

BUS-MATCHING FIFO READS

Data is read from the FIFO RAM in 36-bit long word increments. If a long

word bus size is implemented, the entire long word immediately shifts to the FIFO

output register. If byte or word size is implemented on Port B, only the first one

or two bytes appear on the selected portion of the FIFO output register, with the

rest of the long word stored in auxiliary registers. In this case, subsequent FIFO

reads output the rest of the long word to the FIFO output register in the order

shown by Figure 2.

When reading data from FIFO in byte or word format, the unused B0-B35

outputs are indeterminate.
