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 independently for asynchronous read/write
applications. Clock frequencies up to 66 MHz are achievable.

Architecture
The CY7C42X1V consists of an array of 64 to 8K words of nine
bits each (implemented by a dual-port array of SRAM cells),
a read pointer, a write pointer, control signals (RCLK, WCLK,
REN1, REN2, WEN1, WEN2, RS), and flags (EF, PAE, PAF, FF.)
Functional Overview
The CY7C42X1V provides four status pins: Empty, Full, Almost Empty,
Almost Full. The Almost Empty/Almost Full flags are programmable to
single word granularity. The programmable flags default to Empty-7 and
Full-7.
The flags are synchronous, that is, they change state relative to
either the Read Clock (RCLK) or the Write Clock (WCLK). When
entering or exiting the Empty and Almost Empty states, the flags
are updated exclusively by the RCLK. The flags denoting Almost
Full and Full states are updated exclusively by WCLK. The
synchronous flag architecture guarantees that the flags maintain
their status for at least one cycle
All configurations are fabricated using an advanced 0.65 P-Well
CMOS technology. Input ESD protection is greater than 2001 V, and
latch-up is prevented by the use of guard rings.
Resetting the FIFO
Upon power-up, the FIFO must be reset with a Reset (RS) cycle.
This causes the FIFO to enter the Empty condition signified by
EF being LOW. All data outputs (Q0-8) go LOW tRSF after the
rising edge of RS. In order for the FIFO to reset to its default
state, a falling edge must occur on RS and the user must not read
or write while RS is LOW. All flags are guaranteed to be valid tRSF
after RS is taken LOW.
FIFO Operation
Commercial
rising edge of the WCLK signal. Similarly, when the REN1 and
REN2 signals are active LOW, data in the FIFO memory will be
presented on the Q0-8 outputs. New data will be presented on
each rising edge of RCLK while REN1 and REN2 are active.
REN1 and REN2 must set up tENS before RCLK for it to be a valid
read function. WEN1 and WEN2 must occur tENS before WCLK
for it to be a valid write function.
An Output Enable (OE) pin is provided to three-state the Q0-8
outputs when OE is asserted. When OE is enabled (LOW), data in
the output register will be available to the Q0-8 outputs after tOE.
The FIFO contains overflow circuitry to disallow additional writes
when the FIFO is full, and underflow circuitry to disallow
additional reads when the FIFO is empty. An empty FIFO
maintains the data of the last valid read on its Q0-8 outputs even
after additional reads occur.
Write Enable 1 (WEN1). If the FIFO is configured for programmable flags, Write Enable 1 (WEN1) is the only write enable
control pin. In this configuration, when Write Enable 1 (WEN1) is
LOW, data can be loaded into the input register and RAM array
on the LOW-to-HIGH transition of every write clock (WCLK).
Data is stored is the RAM array sequentially and independently
of any on-going read operation.
Write Enable 2/Load (WEN2/LD). This is a dual-purpose pin.
The FIFO is configured at Reset to have programmable flags or
to have two write enables, which allows for depth expansion. If
Write Enable 2/Load (WEN2/LD) is set active HIGH at Reset
(RS=LOW), this pin operates as a second write enable pin.
If the FIFO is configured to have two write enables, when Write
Enable (WEN1) is LOW and Write Enable 2/Load (WEN2/LD) is
HIGH, data can be loaded into the input register and RAM array
on the LOW-to-HIGH transition of every write clock (WCLK.)
Data is stored in the RAM array sequentially and independently
of any on-going read operation.
When the WEN1 signal is active LOW and WEN2 is active HIGH,
data present on the D0-8 pins is written into the FIFO on each

Programming
WEN2/LD and WEN1 are LOW writes data to the empty LSB
register again. Figure 2 shows the register sizes and default
values for the various device types.
When WEN2/LD is held LOW during Reset, this pin is the load
(LD) enable for flag offset programming. In this configuration,
WEN2/LD can be used to access the four 8-bit offset registers
contained in the CY7C42X1V for writing or reading data to these
registers.
It is not necessary to write to all the offset registers at one time.
A subset of the offset registers can be written; then by bringing
the WEN2/LD input HIGH, the FIFO is returned to normal read
and write operation. The next time WEN2/LD is brought LOW, a
write operation stores data in the next offset register in
sequence.
When the device is configured for programmable flags and both
WEN2/LD and WEN1 are LOW, the first LOW-to-HIGH transition
of WCLK writes data from the data inputs to the empty offset
Least Significant Bit (LSB) register. The second, third, and fourth
LOW-to-HIGH transitions of WCLK store data in the empty offset
Most Significant Bit (MSB) register, full offset LSB register, and
full offset MSB register, respectively, when WEN2/LD and WEN1
are LOW. The fifth LOW-to-HIGH transition of WCLK while
The contents of the offset registers can be read to the data
outputs when WEN2/LD is LOW and both REN1 and REN2 are
LOW. LOW-to-HIGH transitions of RCLK read register contents
to the data outputs. Writes and reads should not be performed
simultaneously on the offset registers.

Programmable Flag (PAE, PAF) Operation
Whether the flag offset registers are programmed as described
in Table 1 or the default values are used, the programmable
Almost Empty Flag (PAE) and programmable Almost Full Flag
(PAF) states are determined by their corresponding offset
registers and the difference between the read and write pointers.

LOW when the FIFO contains n or fewer unread words. PAE is
set HIGH by the LOW-to-HIGH transition of RCLK when the
FIFO contains (n+1) or greater unread words.
The number formed by the full offset least significant bit register
and full offset most significant bit register is referred to as m and
determines the operation of PAF. PAF is synchronized to the
LOW-to-HIGH transition of WCLK by one flip-flop and is set LOW
when the number of unread words in the FIFO is greater than or
equal to CY7C4201V (256 – m) and CY7C4211V (512 – m). PAF
is set HIGH by the LOW-to-HIGH transition of WCLK when the
number of available memory locations is greater than m.
The number formed by the empty offset least significant bit
register and empty offset most significant register is referred to
as n and determines the operation of PAE. PAE is synchronized

Width Expansion Configuration
Word width may be increased simply by connecting the corresponding input control signals of multiple devices. A composite
flag should be created for each of the end-point status flags (EF
and FF). The partial status flags (PAE and PAF) can be detected
from any one device. Figure 3 demonstrates a 18-bit word width
by using two CY7C42X1Vs. Any word width can be attained by
adding additional CY7C42X1Vs.
When the CY7C42X1V is in a width expansion configuration, the
Read Enable (REN2) control input can be grounded (see
Figure 3). In this configuration, the Write Enable 2/Load
(WEN2/LD) pin is set to LOW at Reset so that the pin operates
as a control to load and read the programmable flag offsets.

19. tSKEW1 is the minimum time between a rising RCLK edge and a rising WCLK edge to guarantee that FF will go HIGH during the current clock cycle. If the time
between the rising edge of RCLK and the rising edge of WCLK is less than tSKEW1, then FF may not change state until the next WCLK rising edge.

20. PAE offset = n.
21. tSKEW2 is the minimum time between a rising WCLK and a rising RCLK edge for PAE to change state during that clock cycle. If the time between the edge of
WCLK and the rising RCLK is less than tSKEW2, then PAE may not change state until the next RCLK.
22. If a read is performed on this rising edge of the read clock, there will be Empty + (n1) words in the FIFO when PAE goes LOW.
23. If a write is performed on this rising edge of the write clock, there will be Full– (m–1) words of the FIFO when PAF goes LOW.
24. PAF offset = m.
25. 256-m words in FIFO for CY7C4201V, 512–m words for CY7C4211V
26. tSKEW2 is the minimum time between a rising RCLK edge and a rising WCLK edge for PAF to change during that clock cycle. If the time between the rising edge
of RCLK and the rising edge of WCLK is less than tSKEW2, then PAF may not change state until the next WCLK.
