DESCRIPTION:
The IDT7200/7201/7202 are dual-port memories that load and empty data
on a first-in/first-out basis. The devices use Full and Empty flags to prevent data
overflow and underflow and expansion logic to allow for unlimited expansion
capability in both word size and depth.
The reads and writes are internally sequential through the use of ring
pointers, with no address information required to load and unload data. Data
is toggled in and out of the devices through the use of the Write (W) and Read
(R) pins.
The devices utilize a 9-bit wide data array to allow for control and parity bits
at the user’s option. This feature is especially useful in data communications
applications where it is necessary to use a parity bit for transmission/reception
error checking. It also features a Retransmit (RT) capability that allows for reset
of the read pointer to its initial position when RT is pulsed LOW to allow for
retransmission from the beginning of data. A Half-Full Flag is available in the
single device mode and width expansion modes.
These FIFOs are fabricated using high-speed CMOS technology. They
are designed for those applications requiring asynchronous and simultaneous
read/writes in multiprocessing and rate buffer applications. Military grade
product is manufactured in compliance with MIL-STD-883, Class B.

256 x 9, 512 x 9 and 1,024 x 9
Device Mode, this pin acts as the retransmit input. The Single Device Mode is
initiated by grounding the Expansion In (XI).
The IDT7200/7201A/7202A can be made to retransmit data when the
Retransmit Enable control (RT) input is pulsed LOW. A retransmit operation will
set the internal read pointer to the first location and will not affect the write pointer.
Read Enable (R) and Write Enable (W) must be in the HIGH state during
retransmit. This feature is useful when less than 256/512/1,024 writes are
performed between resets. The retransmit feature is not compatible with the
Depth Expansion Mode and will affect the Half-Full Flag (HF), depending on
the relative locations of the read and write pointers.
EXPANSION IN (XI)
This input is a dual-purpose pin. Expansion In (XI) is grounded to indicate
an operation in the single device mode. Expansion In (XI) is connected to
Expansion Out (XO) of the previous device in the Depth Expansion or Daisy
Chain Mode.
OUTPUTS:
FULL FLAG (FF)
The Full Flag (FF) will go LOW, inhibiting further write operation, when the
write pointer is one location less than the read pointer, indicating that the
device is full. If the read pointer is not moved after Reset (RS), the Full-Flag
(FF) will go LOW after 256 writes for IDT7200, 512 writes for the IDT7201A and
1,024 writes for the IDT7202A.
EMPTY FLAG (EF)
The Empty Flag (EF) will go LOW, inhibiting further read operations, when
the read pointer is equal to the write pointer, indicating that the device is
empty.
EXPANSION OUT/HALF-FULL FLAG (XO/HF)
This is a dual-purpose output. In the single device mode, when
Expansion In (XI) is grounded, this output acts as an indication of a half-full
memory.
After half of the memory is filled and at the falling edge of the next write
operation, the Half-Full Flag (HF) will be set LOW and will remain set until the
difference between the write pointer and read pointer is less than or equal
to one half of the total memory of the device. The Half-Full Flag (HF) is then
reset by using rising edge of the read operation.
In the Depth Expansion Mode, Expansion In (XI) is connected to Expansion
Out (XO) of the previous device. This output acts as a signal to the next device
in the Daisy Chain by providing a pulse to the next device when the previous
device reaches the last location of memory.
DATA OUTPUTS (Q0 – Q8)
Data outputs for 9-bit wide data. This data is in a high impedance condition
whenever Read (R) is in a HIGH state.
SIGNAL DESCRIPTIONS
INPUTS:
DATA IN (D0 – D8)
Data inputs for 9-bit wide data.
CONTROLS:
RESET (RS)
Reset is accomplished whenever the Reset (RS) input is taken to a LOW
state. During reset, both internal read and write pointers are set to the first
location. A reset is required after power up before a write operation can take
place. Both the Read Enable (R) and Write Enable (W) inputs must be
in the HIGH state during the window shown in Figure 2, (i.e., tRSS
before the rising edge of RS) and should not change until tRSR after
the rising edge of RS. Half-Full Flag (HF) will be reset to HIGH after
Reset (RS).
WRITE ENABLE (W)
A write cycle is initiated on the falling edge of this input if the Full Flag (FF)
is not set. Data set-up and hold times must be adhered to with respect to the rising
edge of the Write Enable (W). Data is stored in the RAM array sequentially and
independently of any on-going read operation.
After half of the memory is filled and at the falling edge of the next write
operation, the Half-Full Flag (HF) will be set to LOW and will remain set until the
difference between the write pointer and read pointer is less than or equal to
one half of the total memory of the device. The Half-Full Flag (HF) is then reset
by the rising edge of the read operation.
To prevent data overflow, the Full Flag (FF) will go LOW, inhibiting further
write operations. Upon the completion of a valid read operation, the Full
Flag (FF) will go HIGH after tRFF, allowing a valid write to begin. When the FIFO
is full, the internal write pointer is blocked from W, so external changes in W will
not affect the FIFO when it is full.
READ ENABLE (R)
A read cycle is initiated on the falling edge of the Read Enable (R) provided
the Empty Flag (EF) is not set. The data is accessed on a First-In/First-Out basis,
independent of any ongoing write operations. After Read Enable (R) goes
HIGH, the Data Outputs (Q0 – Q8) will return to a high impedance condition until
the next Read operation. When all data has been read from the FIFO, the Empty
Flag (EF) will go LOW, allowing the “final” read cycle but inhibiting further read
operations with the data outputs remaining in a high impedance state. Once a
valid write operation has been accomplished, the Empty Flag (EF) will go HIGH
after tWEF and a valid Read can then begin. When the FIFO is empty, the internal
read pointer is blocked from R so external changes in R will not affect the FIFO
when it is empty.
FIRST LOAD/RETRANSMIT (FL/RT)
This is a dual-purpose input. In the Depth Expansion Mode, this pin is
grounded to indicate that it is the first loaded (see Operating Modes). In the Single

OPERATING MODES:
Care must be taken to assure that the appropriate flag is monitored by
each system (i.e. FF is monitored on the device where W is used; EF is monitored
on the device where R is used). For additional information, refer to Tech Note
8: Operating FIFOs on Full and Empty Boundary Conditions and Tech Note
6: Designing with FIFOs.
SINGLE DEVICE MODE
A single IDT7200/7201A/7202A may be used when the application
requirements are for 256/512/1,024 words or less. These devices are in a
Single Device Configuration when the Expansion In (XI) control input is
grounded (see Figure 12).
DEPTH EXPANSION
The IDT7200/7201A/7202A can easily be adapted to applications when
the requirements are for greater than 256/512/1,024 words. Figure 14
demonstrates Depth Expansion using three IDT7200/7201A/7202As. Any
depth can be attained by adding additional IDT7200/7201A/7202As. These
FIFOs operate in the Depth Expansion mode when the following conditions
are met:
1. The first device must be designated by grounding the First Load (FL) control
input.
2. All other devices must have FL in the HIGH state.
3. The Expansion Out (XO) pin of each device must be tied to the Expansion
In (XI) pin of the next device. See Figure 14.
4. External logic is needed to generate a composite Full Flag (FF) and Empty
Flag (EF). This requires the ORing of all EFs and ORing of all FFs (i.e.
all must be set to generate the correct composite FF or EF). See Figure
14.
5. The Retransmit (RT) function and Half-Full Flag (HF) are not available in
the Depth Expansion Mode.
For additional information, refer to Tech Note 9: Cascading FIFOs or
FIFO Modules.

IDT7201L/7201LA/7202LA CMOS ASYNCHRONOUS FIFO
256 x 9, 512 x 9 and 1,024 x 9
USAGE MODES:
WIDTH EXPANSION
Word width may be increased simply by connecting the corresponding
input control signals of multiple devices. Status flags (EF, FF and HF) can be
detected from any one device. Figure 13 demonstrates an 18-bit word width
by using two IDT7200/7201A/7202As. Any word width can be attained by
adding additional IDT7200/7201A/7202As (Figure 13).
BIDIRECTIONAL OPERATION
Applications which require data buffering between two systems (each
system capable of Read and Write operations) can be achieved by pairing
IDT7200/7201A/7202As as shown in Figure 16. Both Depth Expansion and
Width Expansion may be used in this mode.
DATA FLOW-THROUGH
Two types of flow-through modes are permitted, a read flow-through
and write flow-through mode. For the read flow-through mode (Figure 17),
the FIFO permits a reading of a single word after writing one word of data into
an empty FIFO. The data is enabled on the bus in (tWEF + tA) ns after the rising
edge of W, called the first write edge, and it remains on the bus until the R line
is raised from LOW-to-HIGH, after which the bus would go into a three-state
mode after tRHZ ns. The EF line would have a pulse showing temporary
deassertion and then would be asserted.
In the write flow-through mode (Figure 18), the FIFO permits the writing
of a single word of data immediately after reading one word of data from a
full FIFO. The R line causes the FF to be deasserted but the W line being LOW
causes it to be asserted again in anticipation of a new data word. On the rising
edge of W, the new word is loaded in the FIFO. The W line must be toggled
when FF is not asserted to write new data in the FIFO and to increment the write
pointer.
COMPOUND EXPANSION
The two expansion techniques described above can be applied together
in a straightforward manner to achieve large FIFO arrays (see Figure 15).
