DESCRIPTION:
The IDT72V281/72V291 are exceptionally deep, high speed, CMOS
First-In-First-Out (FIFO) memories with clocked read and write controls.
These FIFOs offer numerous improvements over previous SuperSync
FIFOs, including the following:
• The limitation of the frequency of one clock input with respect to the other has
been removed. The Frequency Select pin (FS) has been removed, thus
it is no longer necessary to select which of the two clock inputs, RCLK or
WCLK, is running at the higher frequency.
• The period required by the retransmit operation is now fixed and short.
• The first word data latency period, from the time the first word is written to an
empty FIFO to the time it can be read, is now fixed and short. (The variable
clock cycle counting delay associated with the latency period found on
previous SuperSync devices has been eliminated on this SuperSync family.)

DESCRIPTION (Continued)
The frequencies of both the RCLK and the WCLK signals may vary from 0
to fMAX with complete independence. There are no restrictions on the frequency
of the one clock input with respect to the other.
There are two possible timing modes of operation with these devices:
IDT Standard mode and First Word Fall Through (FWFT) mode.
In IDT Standard mode, the first word written to an empty FIFO will not
appear on the data output lines unless a specific read operation is
performed. A read operation, which consists of activating REN and
enabling a rising RCLK edge, will shift the word from internal memory to the
data output lines.
SuperSync FIFOs are particularly appropriate for network, video, telecommunications, data communications and other applications that need to buffer large
amounts of data.
The input port is controlled by a Write Clock (WCLK) input and a Write
Enable (WEN) input. Data is written into the FIFO on every rising edge of
WCLK when WEN is asserted. The output port is controlled by a Read
Clock (RCLK) input and Read Enable (REN) input. Data is read from the
FIFO on every rising edge of RCLK when REN is asserted. An Output
Enable (OE) input is provided for three-state control of the outputs.

DESCRIPTION (Continued)
WCLK, are used to load the offset registers via Dn. REN together with LD on
each rising edge of RCLK can be used to read the offsets in parallel from Qn
regardless of whether serial or parallel offset loading has been selected.
During Master Reset (MRS) the following events occur: The read and
write pointers are set to the first location of the FIFO. The FWFT pin selects
IDT Standard mode or FWFT mode. The LD pin selects either a partial flag
default setting of 127 with parallel programming or a partial flag default
setting of 1,023 with serial programming. The flags are updated according
to the timing mode and default offsets selected.
The Partial Reset (PRS) also sets the read and write pointers to the first
location of the memory. However, the timing mode, partial flag programming method, and default or programmed offset settings existing before
Partial Reset remain unchanged. The flags are updated according to the
timing mode and offsets in effect. PRS is useful for resetting a device in
mid-operation, when reprogramming partial flags would be undesirable.
The Retransmit function allows data to be reread from the FIFO more
than once. A LOW on the RT input during a rising RCLK edge initiates a
retransmit operation by setting the read pointer to the first location of the
memory array.
If, at any time, the FIFO is not actively performing an operation, the chip
will automatically power down. Once in the power down state, the standby
supply current consumption is minimized. Initiating any operation (by
activating control inputs) will immediately take the device out of the power
down state.
The IDT72V281/72V291 are fabricated using IDT’s high speed submicron CMOS technology.
In FWFT mode, the first word written to an empty FIFO is clocked directly
to the data output lines after three transitions of the RCLK signal. A REN does
not have to be asserted for accessing the first word. However, subsequent
words written to the FIFO do require a LOW on REN for access. The state of
the FWFT/SI input during Master Reset determines the timing mode in use.
For applications requiring more data storage capacity than a single FIFO
can provide, the FWFT timing mode permits depth expansion by chaining
FIFOs in series (i.e. the data outputs of one FIFO are connected to the
corresponding data inputs of the next). No external logic is required.
These FIFOs have five flag pins, EF/OR (Empty Flag or Output
Ready), FF/IR (Full Flag or Input Ready), HF (Half-full Flag), PAE
(Programmable Almost-Empty flag) and PAF (Programmable Almost-Full
flag). The EF and FF functions are selected in IDT Standard mode. The
IR and OR functions are selected in FWFT mode. HF, PAE and PAF are
always available for use, irrespective of timing mode.
PAE and PAF can be programmed independently to switch at any
point in memory. (See Table 1 and Table 2.) Programmable offsets
determine the flag switching threshold and can be loaded by two methods:
parallel or serial. Two default offset settings are also provided, so that PAE
can be set to switch at 127 or 1,023 locations from the empty boundary and
the PAF threshold can be set at 127 or 1,023 locations from the full
boundary. These choices are made with the LD pin during Master Reset.
For serial programming, SEN together with LD on each rising edge
of WCLK, are used to load the offset registers via the Serial Input (SI). For
parallel programming, WEN together with LD on each rising edge of

Description
Data inputs for a 9-bit bus.
MRS initializes the read and write pointers to zero and sets the output register to
all zeroes. During Master Reset, the FIFO is configured for either FWFT or IDT
Standard mode, one of two programmable flag default settings, and serial or
parallel programming of the offset settings.
PRS initializes the read and write pointers to zero and sets the output register to
all zeroes. During Partial Reset, the existing mode (IDT or FWFT), programming
method (serial or parallel), and programmable flag settings are all retained.
RT asserted on the rising edge of RCLK initializes the READ pointer to zero, sets
the EF flag to LOW (OR to HIGH in FWFT mode) temporarily and does not disturb
the write pointer, programming method, existing timing mode or programmable flag
settings. RT is useful to reread data from the first physical location of the FIFO.
During Master Reset, selects First Word Fall Through or IDT Standard mode.
After Master Reset, this pin functions as a serial input for loading offset registers
When enabled by WEN, the rising edge of WCLK writes data into the FIFO and
offsets into the programmable registers for parallel programming, and when
enabled by SEN, the rising edge of WCLK writes one bit of data into the
programmable register for serial programming.
WEN enables WCLK for writing data into the FIFO memory and offset registers.
When enabled by REN, the rising edge of RCLK reads data from the FIFO
memory and offsets from the programmable registers.
REN enables RCLK for reading data from the FIFO memory and offset registers.
OE controls the output impedance of Qn.
SEN enables serial loading of programmable flag offsets.
During Master Reset, LD selects one of two partial flag default offsets (127 or 1,023
and determines the flag offset programming method, serial or parallel. After
Master Reset, this pin enables writing to and reading from the offset registers.
This pin must be tied to either VCC or GND and must not toggle after Master
Reset.
In the IDT Standard mode, the FF function is selected. FF indicates whether or
not the FIFO memory is full. In the FWFT mode, the IR function is selected. IR
indicates whether or not there is space available for writing to the FIFO memory.
In the IDT Standard mode, the EF function is selected. EF indicates whether or
not the FIFO memory is empty. In FWFT mode, the OR function is selected.
OR indicates whether or not there is valid data available at the outputs.
PAF goes LOW if the number of words in the FIFO memory is more than
total word capacity of the FIFO minus the full offset value m, which is stored in the
Full Offset register. There are two possible default values for m: 127 or 1,023.
PAE goes LOW if the number of words in the FIFO memory is less than offset n,
which is stored in the Empty Offset register. There are two possible default values
for n: 127 or 1,023. Other values for n can be programmed into the device.
HF indicates whether the FIFO memory is more or less than half-full.

TEMPERATURE RANGES
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
When configured in IDT Standard mode, the EF and FF outputs are
double register-buffered outputs.
Relevant timing diagrams for IDT Standard mode can be found in Figure
7, 8 and 11.
TIMING MODES: IDT STANDARD vs FIRST WORD FALL THROUGH
(FWFT) MODE
The IDT72V281/72V291 support two different timing modes of operation: IDT Standard mode or First Word Fall Through (FWFT) mode. The
selection of which mode will operate is determined during Master Reset,
by the state of the FWFT/SI input.
If, at the time of Master Reset, FWFT/SI is LOW, then IDT Standard
mode will be selected. This mode uses the Empty Flag (EF) to indicate
whether or not there are any words present in the FIFO. It also uses the Full
Flag function (FF) to indicate whether or not the FIFO has any free space
for writing. In IDT Standard mode, every word read from the FIFO, including
the first, must be requested using the Read Enable (REN) and RCLK.
If, at the time of Master Reset, FWFT/SI is HIGH, then FWFT mode will
be selected. This mode uses Output Ready (OR) to indicate whether or not
there is valid data at the data outputs (Qn). It also uses Input Ready (IR)
to indicate whether or not the FIFO has any free space for writing. In the
FWFT mode, the first word written to an empty FIFO goes directly to Qn after
three RCLK rising edges, REN = LOW is not necessary. Subsequent
words must be accessed using the Read Enable (REN) and RCLK.
Various signals, both input and output signals operate differently depending on which timing mode is in effect.
FIRST WORD FALL THROUGH MODE (FWFT)
In this mode, the status flags, IR, PAF, HF, PAE, and OR operate in
the manner outlined in Table 2. To write data into to the FIFO, WEN must
be LOW. Data presented to the DATA IN lines will be clocked into the FIFO
on subsequent transitions of WCLK. After the first write is performed, the
Output Ready (OR) flag will go LOW. Subsequent writes will continue to fill
up the FIFO. PAE will go HIGH after n + 2 words have been loaded into the
FIFO, where n is the empty offset value. The default setting for this value
is stated in the footnote of Table 2. This parameter is also user programmable. See section on Programmable Flag Offset Loading.
If one continued to write data into the FIFO, and we assumed no read
operations were taking place, the HF would toggle to LOW once the
32,770th word for the IDT72V281 and 65,538th word for the IDT72V291,
respectively was written into the FIFO. Continuing to write data into the
FIFO will cause the PAF to go LOW. Again, if no reads are performed, the
PAF will go LOW after (65,537-m) writes for the IDT72V281 and (131,073-m)
writes for the IDT72V291, where m is the full offset value. The default setting
for this value is stated in the footnote of Table 2.
When the FIFO is full, the Input Ready (IR) flag will go HIGH, inhibiting
further write operations. If no reads are performed after a reset, IR will go
HIGH after D writes to the FIFO. D = 65,537 writes for the IDT72V281 and
131,073 writes for the IDT72V291, respectively. Note that the additional
word in FWFT mode is due to the capacity of the memory plus output
register.
If the FIFO is full, the first read operation will cause the IR flag to go LOW.
Subsequent read operations will cause the PAF and HF to go HIGH at the
conditions described in Table 2. If further read operations occur, without
write operations, the PAE will go LOW when there are n + 1 words in the
FIFO, where n is the empty offset value. Continuing read operations will
cause the FIFO to become empty. When the last word has been read from
the FIFO, OR will go HIGH inhibiting further read operations. REN is
ignored when the FIFO is empty.
When configured in FWFT mode, the OR flag output is triple registerbuffered, and the IR flag output is double register-buffered.
Relevant timing diagrams for FWFT mode can be found in Figure 9, 10
and 12.
IDT STANDARD MODE
In this mode, the status flags, FF, PAF, HF, PAE, and EF operate in
the manner outlined in Table 1. To write data into to the FIFO, Write Enable
(WEN) must be LOW. Data presented to the DATA IN lines will be clocked
into the FIFO on subsequent transitions of the Write Clock (WCLK). After the
first write is performed, the Empty Flag (EF) will go HIGH. Subsequent
writes will continue to fill up the FIFO. The Programmable Almost-Empty
flag (PAE) will go HIGH after n + 1 words have been loaded into the FIFO,
where n is the empty offset value. The default setting for this value is stated
in the footnote of Table 1. This parameter is also user programmable. See
section on Programmable Flag Offset Loading.
If one continued to write data into the FIFO, and we assumed no read
operations were taking place, the Half-Full flag (HF) would toggle to LOW
once the 32,769th word for IDT72V281 and 65,537th word for IDT72V291
respectively was written into the FIFO. Continuing to write data into the
FIFO will cause the Programmable Almost-Full flag (PAF) to go LOW.
Again, if no reads are performed, the PAF will go LOW after (65,536-m)
writes for the IDT72V281 and (131,072-m) writes for the IDT72V291. The
offset “m” is the full offset value. The default setting for this value is stated
in the footnote of Table 1. This parameter is also user programmable. See
section on Programmable Flag Offset Loading.
When the FIFO is full, the Full Flag (FF) will go LOW, inhibiting further
write operations. If no reads are performed after a reset, FF will go LOW
after D writes to the FIFO. D = 65,536 writes for the IDT72V281 and
131,072 for the IDT72V291, respectively.
If the FIFO is full, the first read operation will cause FF to go HIGH.
Subsequent read operations will cause PAF and HF to go HIGH at the
conditions described in Table 1. If further read operations occur, without
write operations, PAE will go LOW when there are n words in the FIFO,
where n is the empty offset value. Continuing read operations will cause the
FIFO to become empty. When the last word has been read from the FIFO,
the EF will go LOW inhibiting further read operations. REN is ignored when
the FIFO is empty.
PROGRAMMING FLAG OFFSETS
Full and Empty Flag offset values are user programmable. The
IDT72V281/72V291 has internal registers for these offsets. Default settings
are stated in the footnotes of Table 1 and Table 2. Offset values can be
programmed into the FIFO in one of two ways; serial or parallel loading
method. The selection of the loading method is done using the LD (Load)
pin. During Master Reset, the state of the LD input determines whether
serial or parallel flag offset programming is enabled. A HIGH on LD during
Master Reset selects serial loading of offset values and in addition, sets a
default PAE offset value of 3FFH (a threshold 1,023 words from the empty
boundary), and a default PAF offset value of 3FFH (a threshold 1,023
words from the full boundary). A LOW on LD during Master Reset selects
parallel loading of offset values, and in addition, sets a default PAE offset
value of 07FH (a threshold 127 words from the empty boundary), and a
default PAF offset value of 07FH (a threshold 127 words from the full
boundary). See Figure 3, Offset Register Location and Default Values.

In addition to loading offset values into the FIFO, it also possible to read the

modes. For a more detailed description, see discussion that follows.
The offset registers may be programmed (and reprogrammed) any time
after Master Reset, regardless of whether serial or parallel programming
has been selected.

SERIAL PROGRAMMING MODE
If Serial Programming mode has been selected, as described above,
then programming of PAE and PAF values can be achieved by using a
combination of the LD, SEN, WCLK and SI input pins. Programming PAE
and PAF proceeds as follows: when LD and SEN are set LOW, data on
the SI input are written, one bit for each WCLK rising edge, starting with the
Empty Offset LSB and ending with the Full Offset MSB. A total of 32 bits
for the IDT72V281 and 34 bits for the IDT72V291. See Figure 13, Serial
Loading of Programmable Flag Registers, for the timing diagram for this
mode.
Using the serial method, individual registers cannot be programmed
selectively. PAE and PAF can show a valid status only after the complete
set of bits (for all offset registers) has been entered. The registers can be
reprogrammed as long as the complete set of new offset bits is entered.
When LD is LOW and SEN is HIGH, no serial write to the registers can
occur.
Write operations to the FIFO are allowed before and during the serial
programming sequence. In this case, the programming of all offset bits
does not have to occur at once. A select number of bits can be written to
the SI input and then, by bringing LD and SEN HIGH, data can be written
to FIFO memory via Dn by toggling WEN. When WEN is brought HIGH
with LD and SEN restored to a LOW, the next offset bit in sequence is
written to the registers via SI. If an interruption of serial programming is
desired, it is sufficient either to set LD LOW and deactivate SEN or to set
SEN LOW and deactivate LD. Once LD and SEN are both restored to
a LOW level, serial offset programming continues.
From the time serial programming has begun, neither partial flag will be
valid until the full set of bits required to fill all the offset registers has been
written. Measuring from the rising WCLK edge that achieves the above
criteria; PAF will be valid after two more rising WCLK edges plus tPAF,
PAE will be valid after the next two rising RCLK edges plus tPAE plus
tSKEW2.
It is not possible to read the flag offset values in a serial mode.
PARALLEL MODE
If Parallel Programming mode has been selected, as described above,
then programming of PAE and PAF values can be achieved by using a
combination of the LD, WCLK , WEN and Dn input pins. For the
IDT72V281, programming PAE and PAF proceeds as follows: when LD
and WEN are set LOW, data on the inputs Dn are written into the Empty
Offset LSB Register on the first LOW-to-HIGH transition of WCLK. Upon the
second LOW-to-HIGH transition of WCLK, data are written into the Empty
Offset MSB Register. Upon the third LOW-to-HIGH transition of WCLK,
data are written into the Full Offset LSB Register. Upon the fourth LOWto-HIGH transition of WCLK, data are written into the Full Offset MSB
Register. The fifth transition of WCLK writes, once again, to the Empty
Offset LSB Register. See Figure 14, Parallel Loading of Programmable
Flag Registers for the IDT72V281, for the timing diagram for this mode.
For the IDT72V291, programming PAE and PAF proceeds as
follows: when LD and WEN are set LOW, data on the inputs Dn are written
into the Empty Offset LSB Register on the first LOW-to-HIGH transition of
WCLK. Upon the second LOW-to-HIGH transition of WCLK, data are
written into the Empty Offset Mid-Byte Register. Upon the third LOW-toHIGH transition of WCLK, data are written into the Empty Offset MSB
Register. Upon the fourth LOW-to-HIGH transition of WCLK, data are
written into the Full Offset LSB Register. Upon the fifth LOW-to-HIGH
transition of WCLK, data are written into the Full Offset Mid-Byte Register.
COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL
TEMPERATURE RANGES
Upon the sixth LOW-to-HIGH transition of WCLK, data are written into the
Full Offset MSB Register. The seventh transition of WCLK writes, once
again, into the Empty Offset LSB Register. See Figure 15, Parallel Loading
of Programmable Flag Registers for the IDT72V291, for the timing diagram
for this mode.
The act of writing offsets in parallel employs a dedicated write offset
register pointer. The act of reading offsets employs a dedicated read offset
register pointer. The two pointers operate independently; however, a read
and a write should not be performed simultaneously to the offset registers.
A Master Reset initializes both pointers to the Empty Offset (LSB) register.
A Partial Reset has no effect on the position of these pointers.
Write operations to the FIFO are allowed before and during the parallel
programming sequence. In this case, the programming of all offset registers
does not have to occur at one time. One, two or more offset registers can
be written and then by bringing LD HIGH, write operations can be
redirected to the FIFO memory. When LD is set LOW again, and WEN is
LOW, the next offset register in sequence is written to. As an alternative to
holding WEN LOW and toggling LD, parallel programming can also be
interrupted by setting LD LOW and toggling WEN.
Note that the status of a partial flag (PAE or PAF) output is invalid
during the programming process. From the time parallel programming has
begun, a partial flag output will not be valid until the appropriate offset word
has been written to the register(s) pertaining to that flag. Measuring from the
rising WCLK edge that achieves the above criteria; PAF will be valid after
two more rising WCLK edges plus tPAF, PAE will be valid after the next two
rising RCLK edges plus tPAE plus tSKEW2.
The act of reading the offset registers employs a dedicated read offset
register pointer. The contents of the offset registers can be read on the Q0Qn pins when LD is set LOW and REN is set LOW. For the IDT72V281,
data are read via Qn from the Empty Offset LSB Register on the first LOWto-HIGH transition of RCLK. Upon the second LOW-to-HIGH transition of
RCLK, data are read from the Empty Offset MSB Register. Upon the third
LOW-to-HIGH transition of RCLK, data are read from the Full Offset LSB
Register. Upon the fourth LOW-to-HIGH transition of RCLK, data are read
from the Full Offset MSB Register. The fifth transition of RCLK reads, once
again, from the Empty Offset LSB Register. See Figure 16, Parallel Read
of Programmable Flag Registers for the IDT72V281, for the timing diagram
for this mode.
For the IDT72V291, data is read via Qn from the Empty Offset LSB
Register on the first LOW-to-HIGH transition of RCLK. Upon the second
LOW-to-HIGH transition of RCLK, data are read from the Empty Offset MidByte Register. Upon the third LOW-to-HIGH transition of RCLK, data are
read from the Empty Offset MSB Register. Upon the fourth LOW-to-HIGH
transition of RCLK, data are read from the Full Offset LSB Register. Upon
the fifth LOW-to-HIGH transition of RCLK, data are read from the Full Offset
Mid-Byte Register. Upon the sixth LOW-to-HIGH transition of RCLK, data
are read from the Full Offset MSB Register. The seventh transition of RCLK
reads, once again, from the Empty Offset LSB Register. See Figure 17,
Parallel Read of Programmable Flag Registers for the IDT72V291, for the
timing diagram for this mode.
It is permissible to interrupt the offset register read sequence with reads
or writes to the FIFO. The interruption is accomplished by deasserting
REN, LD, or both together. When REN and LD are restored to a LOW
level, reading of the offset registers continues where it left off. It should be
noted, and care should be taken from the fact that when a parallel read of
the flag offsets is performed, the data word that was present on the output
lines Qn will be overwritten.

Standard mode is selected, every word read including the first word
following Retransmit setup requires a LOW on REN to enable the rising
edge of RCLK. See Figure 11, Retransmit Timing (IDT Standard Mode), for
the relevant timing diagram.
If FWFT mode is selected, the FIFO will mark the beginning of the
Retransmit setup by setting OR HIGH. During this period, the internal read
pointer is set to the first location of the RAM array.
When OR goes LOW, Retransmit setup is complete; at the same time,
the contents of the first location appear on the outputs. Since FWFT mode
is selected, the first word appears on the outputs, no LOW on REN is
necessary. Reading all subsequent words requires a LOW on REN to
enable the rising edge of RCLK. See Figure 12, Retransmit Timing (FWFT
Mode), for the relevant timing diagram.
For either IDT Standard mode or FWFT mode, updating of the PAE,
HF and PAF flags begin with the rising edge of RCLK that RT is setup.
PAE is synchronized to RCLK, thus on the second rising edge of RCLK
after RT is setup, the PAE flag will be updated. HF is asynchronous, thus
the rising edge of RCLK that RT is setup will update HF. PAF is
synchronized to WCLK, thus the second rising edge of WCLK that occurs
tSKEW after the rising edge of RCLK that RT is setup will update PAF. RT
is synchronized to RCLK.
Parallel reading of the offset registers is always permitted regardless of
which timing mode (IDT Standard or FWFT modes) has been selected.
RETRANSMIT OPERATION
The Retransmit operation allows data that has already been read to be
accessed again. There are two stages: first, a setup procedure that resets
the read pointer to the first location of memory, then the actual retransmit,
which consists of reading out the memory contents, starting at the beginning
of memory.
Retransmit setup is initiated by holding RT LOW during a rising RCLK
edge. REN and WEN must be HIGH before bringing RT LOW. At least
one word, but no more than D - 2 words should have been written into the
FIFO between Reset (Master or Partial) and the time of Retransmit setup.
D = 65,536 for the IDT72V281 and D = 131,072 for the IDT72V291 in IDT
Standard mode. In FWFT mode, D = 65,537 for the IDT72V281 and
D = 131,073 for the IDT72V291.
If IDT Standard mode is selected, the FIFO will mark the beginning of
the Retransmit setup by setting EF LOW. The change in level will only be
noticeable if EF was HIGH before setup. During this period, the internal
read pointer is initialized to the first location of the RAM array.
When EF goes HIGH, Retransmit setup is complete and read operations may begin starting with the first location in memory. Since IDT

CONTROLS:
MRS
MASTER RESET (MRS
MRS)
A Master Reset is accomplished whenever the MRS input is taken to
a LOW state. This operation sets the internal read and write pointers to the
first location of the RAM array. PAE will go LOW, PAF will go HIGH, and
HF will go HIGH.
If FWFT is LOW during Master Reset then the IDT Standard mode,
along with EF and FF are selected. EF will go LOW and FF will go HIGH.
If FWFT is HIGH, then the First Word Fall Through mode (FWFT), along with
IR and OR, are selected. OR will go HIGH and IR will go LOW.
If LD is LOW during Master Reset, then PAE is assigned a threshold
127 words from the empty boundary and PAF is assigned a threshold 127
words from the full boundary; 127 words corresponds to an offset value of
07FH. Following Master Reset, parallel loading of the offsets is permitted,
but not serial loading.
If LD is HIGH during Master Reset, then PAE is assigned a threshold
1,023 words from the empty boundary and PAF is assigned a threshold
1,023 words from the full boundary; 1,023 words corresponds to an offset
value of 3FFH. Following Master Reset, serial loading of the offsets is
permitted, but not parallel loading.
Parallel reading of the registers is always permitted. (See section
describing the LD pin for further details.)
During a Master Reset, the output register is initialized to all zeroes. A
Master Reset is required after power up, before a write operation can take
place. MRS is asynchronous.
See Figure 5, Master Reset Timing, for the relevant timing diagram.
PRS
PARTIAL RESET (PRS
PRS)
A Partial Reset is accomplished whenever the PRS input is taken to a LOW
state. As in the case of the Master Reset, the internal read and write pointers are
set to the first location of the RAM array, PAE goes LOW, PAF goes HIGH, and
HF goes HIGH.
Whichever mode is active at the time of Partial Reset, IDT Standard mode
or First Word Fall Through, that mode will remain selected. If the IDT Standard
mode is active, then FF will go HIGH and EF will go LOW. If the First Word
Fall Through mode is active, then OR will go HIGH, and IR will go LOW.
Following Partial Reset, all values held in the offset registers remain
unchanged. The programming method (parallel or serial) currently active
at the time of Partial Reset is also retained. The output register is initialized
to all zeroes. PRS is asynchronous.
A Partial Reset is useful for resetting the device during the course of
operation, when reprogramming partial flag offset settings may not be
convenient.
See Figure 6, Partial Reset Timing, for the relevant timing diagram.
RT
RETRANSMIT (RT
RT)
The Retransmit operation allows data that has already been read to be
accessed again. There are two stages: first, a setup procedure that resets the
read pointer to the first location of memory, then the actual retransmit, which
consists of reading out the memory contents, starting at the beginning of the
memory.
COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL
TEMPERATURE RANGES
Retransmit setup is initiated by holding RT LOW during a rising RCLK
edge. REN and WEN must be HIGH before bringing RT LOW.
If IDT Standard mode is selected, the FIFO will mark the beginning of
the Retransmit setup by setting EF LOW. The change in level will only be
noticeable if EF was HIGH before setup. During this period, the internal
read pointer is initialized to the first location of the RAM array.
When EF goes HIGH, Retransmit setup is complete and read operations may begin starting with the first location in memory. Since IDT
Standard mode is selected, every word read including the first word
following Retransmit setup requires a LOW on REN to enable the rising
edge of RCLK. See Figure 11, Retransmit Timing (IDT Standard Mode), for
the relevant timing diagram.
If FWFT mode is selected, the FIFO will mark the beginning of the Retransmit
setup by setting OR HIGH. During this period, the internal read pointer is set to
the first location of the RAM array.
When OR goes LOW, Retransmit setup is complete; at the same time,
the contents of the first location appear on the outputs. Since FWFT mode
is selected, the first word appears on the outputs, no LOW on REN is
necessary. Reading all subsequent words requires a LOW on REN to
enable the rising edge of RCLK. See Figure 12, Retransmit Timing (FWFT
Mode), for the relevant timing diagram.
FIRST WORD FALL THROUGH/SERIAL IN (FWFT/SI)
This is a dual purpose pin. During Master Reset, the state of the FWFT/SI
input determines whether the device will operate in IDT Standard mode or First
Word Fall Through (FWFT) mode.
If, at the time of Master Reset, FWFT/SI is LOW, then IDT Standard
mode will be selected. This mode uses the Empty Flag (EF) to indicate
whether or not there are any words present in the FIFO memory. It also 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 the Read Enable (REN)
and RCLK.
If, at the time of Master Reset, FWFT/SI is HIGH, then FWFT mode will
be selected. This mode uses Output Ready (OR) to indicate whether or not
there is valid data at the data outputs (Qn). It also uses Input Ready (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
Qn after three RCLK rising edges, REN = LOW is not necessary. Subsequent words must be accessed using the Read Enable (REN) and RCLK.
After Master Reset, FWFT/SI acts as a serial input for loading PAE and
PAF offsets into the programmable registers. The serial input function can
only be used when the serial loading method has been selected during
Master Reset. Serial programming using the FWFT/SI pin functions the
same way in both IDT Standard and FWFT modes.
WRITE CLOCK (WCLK)
A write cycle is initiated on the rising edge of the WCLK input. Data setup
and hold times must be met with respect to the LOW-to-HIGH transition of
the WCLK. It is permissible to stop the WCLK. Note that while WCLK is idle,
the FF/IR, PAF and HF flags will not be updated. (Note that WCLK is only
capable of updating HF flag to LOW.) The Write and Read Clocks can
either be independent or coincident.
WEN
WRITE ENABLE (WEN
WEN)
When the WEN input is LOW, data may be loaded into the FIFO RAM
array on the rising edge of every WCLK cycle if the device is not full. Data
is stored in the RAM array sequentially and independently of any ongoing
read operation.

COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL
TEMPERATURE RANGES
When WEN is HIGH, no new data is written in the RAM array on each
WCLK cycle.
To prevent data overflow in the IDT Standard mode, FF will go LOW,
inhibiting further write operations. Upon the completion of a valid read cycle,
FF will go HIGH allowing a write to occur. The FF is updated by two WCLK
cycles + tSKEW after the RCLK cycle.
To prevent data overflow in the FWFT mode, IR will go HIGH, inhibiting
further write operations. Upon the completion of a valid read cycle, IR will
go LOW allowing a write to occur. The IR flag is updated by two WCLK
cycles + tSKEW after the valid RCLK cycle.
WEN is ignored when the FIFO is full in either FWFT or IDT Standard
mode.
PAF flags, along with the method by which these offset registers can be
programmed, parallel or serial. After Master Reset, LD enables write
operations to and read operations from the offset registers. Only the offset
loading method currently selected can be used to write to the registers.
Offset registers can be read only in parallel. A LOW on LD during Master
Reset selects a default PAE offset value of 07FH (a threshold 127 words
from the empty boundary), a default PAF offset value of 07FH (a threshold
127 words from the full boundary), and parallel loading of other offset
values. A HIGH on LD during Master Reset selects a default PAE offset
value of 3FFH (a threshold 1,023 words from the empty boundary), a default
PAF offset value of 3FFH (a threshold 1,023 words from the full boundary),
and serial loading of other offset values.
After Master Reset, the LD pin is used to activate the programming
process of the flag offset values PAE and PAF. Pulling LD LOW will begin
a serial loading or parallel load or read of these offset values. See Figure 4,
Programmable Flag Offset Programming Sequence.
READ CLOCK (RCLK)
A read cycle is initiated on the rising edge of the RCLK input. Data can be
read on the outputs, on the rising edge of the RCLK input. It is permissible to
stop the RCLK. Note that while RCLK is idle, the EF/OR, PAE and HF flags
will not be updated. (Note that RCLK is only capable of updating the HF flag
to HIGH.) The Write and Read Clocks can be independent or coincident.
OUTPUTS:
FF
IR
FULL FLAG (FF
FF/IR
IR)
This is a dual purpose pin. In IDT Standard mode, the Full Flag (FF)
function is selected. When the FIFO is full, FF will go LOW, inhibiting further
write operations. When FF is HIGH, the FIFO is not full. If no reads are
performed after a reset (either MRS or PRS), FF will go LOW after D
writes to the FIFO (D = 65,536 for the IDT72V281 and 131,072 for the
IDT72V291). See Figure 7, Write Cycle and Full Flag Timing (IDT Standard
Mode), for the relevant timing information.
In FWFT mode, the Input Ready (IR) function is selected. IR goes
LOW when memory space is available for writing in data. When there is no
longer any free space left, IR goes HIGH, inhibiting further write operations.
If no reads are performed after a reset (either MRS or PRS), IR will go
HIGH after D writes to the FIFO (D = 65,537 for the IDT72V281 and
131,073 for the IDT72V291) See Figure 9, Write Timing (FWFT Mode), for
the relevant timing information.
The IR status not only measures the contents of the FIFO memory, but
also counts the presence of a word in the output register. Thus, in FWFT
mode, the total number of writes necessary to deassert IR is one greater
than needed to assert FF in IDT Standard mode.
FF/IR is synchronous and updated on the rising edge of WCLK. FF/IR
are double register-buffered outputs.
REN
READ ENABLE (REN
REN)
When Read Enable is LOW, data is loaded from the RAM array into the
output register on the rising edge of every RCLK cycle if the device is not empty.
When the REN input is HIGH, the output register holds the previous data
and no new data is loaded into the output register. The data outputs Q0-Qn
maintain the previous data value.
In the IDT Standard mode, every word accessed at Qn, including the first
word written to an empty FIFO, must be requested using REN. When the
last word has been read from the FIFO, the Empty Flag (EF) will go LOW,
inhibiting further read operations. REN is ignored when the FIFO is empty.
Once a write is performed, EF will go HIGH allowing a read to occur. The
EF flag is updated by two RCLK cycles + tSKEW after the valid WCLK cycle.
In the FWFT mode, the first word written to an empty FIFO automatically
goes to the outputs Qn, on the third valid LOW to HIGH transition of RCLK+ tSKEW
after the first write. REN does not need to be asserted LOW. In order to access
all other words, a read must be executed using REN. The RCLK LOW to HIGH
transition after the last word has been read from the FIFO, Output Ready (OR)
will go HIGH with a true read (RCLK with REN = LOW), inhibiting further read
operations. REN is ignored when the FIFO is empty.
SEN
SERIAL ENABLE (SEN
SEN)
The SEN input is an enable used only for serial programming of the
offset registers. The serial programming method must be selected during
Master Reset. SEN is always used in conjunction with LD. When these
lines are both LOW, data at the SI input can be loaded into the program
register one bit for each LOW-to-HIGH transition of WCLK. (See Figure 4.)
When SEN is HIGH, the programmable registers retains the previous
settings and no offsets are loaded. SEN functions the same way in both
IDT Standard and FWFT modes.
EF
OR
EMPTY FLAG (EF
EF/OR
OR)
This is a dual purpose pin. In the IDT Standard mode, the Empty Flag
(EF) function is selected. When the FIFO is empty, EF will go LOW,
inhibiting further read operations. When EF is HIGH, the FIFO is not empty.
See Figure 8, Read Cycle, Empty Flag and First Word Latency Timing (IDT
Standard Mode), for the relevant timing information.
In FWFT mode, the Output Ready (OR) function is selected. OR goes
LOW at the same time that the first word written to an empty FIFO appears
valid on the outputs. OR stays LOW after the RCLK LOW to HIGH
transition that shifts the last word from the FIFO memory to the outputs. OR
goes HIGH only with a true read (RCLK with REN = LOW). The previous
data stays at the outputs, indicating the last word was read. Further data
reads are inhibited until OR goes LOW again. See Figure 10, Read Timing
(FWFT Mode), for the relevant timing information.
EF/OR is synchronous and updated on the rising edge of RCLK.
In IDT Standard mode, EF is a double register-buffered output. In FWFT
mode, OR is a triple register-buffered output.
OE
OUTPUT ENABLE (OE
OE)
When Output Enable is enabled (LOW), the parallel output buffers receive
data from the output register. When OE is HIGH, the output data bus (Qn) goes
into a high impedance state.
LD
LOAD (LD
LD)
This is a dual purpose pin. During Master Reset, the state of the LD input
determines one of two default offset values (127 or 1,023) for the PAE and

65,536 x 9 and 131,072 x 9
PAF
PROGRAMMABLE ALMOST-FULL FLAG (PAF
PAF)
The Programmable Almost-Full flag (PAF) will go LOW when the FIFO
reaches the almost-full condition. In IDT Standard mode, if no reads are
performed after reset (MRS), PAF will go LOW after (D - m) words are
written to the FIFO. The PAF will go LOW after (65,536-m) writes for the
IDT72V281 and (131,072-m) writes for the IDT72V291. The offset “m” is the
full offset value. The default setting for this value is stated in the footnote of
Table 1.
In FWFT mode, the PAF will go LOW after (65,537-m) writes for the
IDT72V281 and (131,073-m) writes for the IDT72V291, where m is the full
offset value. The default setting for this value is stated in the footnote of
Table 2.
See Figure 18, Programmable Almost-Full Flag Timing (IDT Standard
and FWFT Mode), for the relevant timing information.
PAF is synchronous and updated on the rising edge of WCLK.
PAE
PROGRAMMABLE ALMOST-EMPTY FLAG (PAE
PAE)
The Programmable Almost-Empty flag (PAE) will go LOW when the
FIFO reaches the almost-empty condition. In IDT Standard mode, PAE will
go LOW when there are n words or less in the FIFO. The offset “n” is the
empty offset value. The default setting for this value is stated in the footnote
of Table 1.
In FWFT mode, the PAE will go LOW when there are n+1 words or less in
the FIFO. The default setting for this value is stated in the footnote of Table 2.
COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL
TEMPERATURE RANGES
See Figure 19, Programmable Almost-Empty Flag Timing (IDT Standard and FWFT Mode), for the relevant timing information.
PAE is synchronous and updated on the rising edge of RCLK.
HF
HALF-FULL FLAG (HF
HF)
This output indicates a half-full FIFO. The rising WCLK edge that fills the
FIFO beyond half-full sets HF LOW. The flag remains LOW until the
difference between the write and read pointers becomes less than or equal
to half of the total depth of the device; the rising RCLK edge that accomplishes this condition sets HF HIGH.
In IDT Standard mode, if no reads are performed after reset (MRS or
PRS), HF will go LOW after (D/2 + 1) writes to the FIFO, where D = 65,536
for the IDT72V281 and 131,072 for the IDT72V291.
In FWFT mode, if no reads are performed after reset (MRS or PRS),
HF will go LOW after (D-1/2 + 2) writes to the FIFO, where D = 65,537 for
the IDT72V281 and 131,073 for the IDT72V291.
See Figure 20, Half-Full Flag Timing (IDT Standard and FWFT Modes),
for the relevant timing information. Because HF is updated by both RCLK
and WCLK, it is considered asynchronous.
DATA OUTPUTS (Q0-Q8)
(Q0 - Q8) are data outputs for 9-bit wide data.

OPTIONAL CONFIGURATIONS
such problems can be avoided by creating composite flags, that is, ANDing
EF of every FIFO, and separately ANDing FF of every FIFO. In FWFT
mode, composite flags can be created by ORing OR of every FIFO, and
separately ORing IR of every FIFO.
Figure 21 demonstrates a width expansion using two IDT72V281/
72V291 devices. D0 - D8 from each device form a 18-bit wide input bus and
Q0-Q8 from each device form a 18-bit wide output bus. Any word width can
be attained by adding additional IDT72V281/72V291 devices.
WIDTH EXPANSION CONFIGURATION
Word width may be increased simply by connecting together the control
signals of multiple devices. Status flags can be detected from any one
device. The exceptions are the EF and FF functions in IDT Standard mode
and the IR and OR functions in FWFT mode. Because of variations in skew
between RCLK and WCLK, it is possible for EF/FF deassertion and IR/
OR assertion to vary by one cycle between FIFOs. In IDT Standard mode,

NOTES:
1. Use an AND gate in IDT Standard mode, an OR gate in FWFT mode.
2. Do not connect any output control signals directly together.
3. FIFO #1 and FIFO #2 must be the same depth, but may be different word widths.

DEPTH EXPANSION CONFIGURATION (FWFT MODE ONLY)
The IDT72V281 can easily be adapted to applications requiring depths
greater than 65,536 and 131,072 for the IDT72V291 with a 9-bit bus width.
In FWFT mode, the FIFOs can be connected in series (the data outputs of
one FIFO connected to the data inputs of the next) with no external logic
necessary. The resulting configuration provides a total depth equivalent to
the sum of the depths associated with each single FIFO. Figure 22 shows
a depth expansion using two IDT72V281/72V291 devices.
Care should be taken to select FWFT mode during Master Reset for all
FIFOs in the depth expansion configuration. The first word written to an
empty configuration will pass from one FIFO to the next ("ripple down") until
it finally appears at the outputs of the last FIFO in the chain–no read
operation is necessary but the RCLK of each FIFO must be free-running.
Each time the data word appears at the outputs of one FIFO, that device's
OR line goes LOW, enabling a write to the next FIFO in line.
For an empty expansion configuration, the amount of time it takes for OR
of the last FIFO in the chain to go LOW (i.e. valid data to appear on the last
FIFO's outputs) after a word has been written to the first FIFO is the sum of the
delays for each individual FIFO:
(N – 1)*(4*transfer clock) + 3*TRCLK
where N is the number of FIFOs in the expansion and TRCLK is the RCLK period.
Note that extra cycles should be added for the possibility that the tSKEW3
specification is not met between WCLK and transfer clock, or RCLK and transfer
clock, for the OR flag.
The "ripple down" delay is only noticeable for the first word written to an
empty depth expansion configuration. There will be no delay evident for
subsequent words written to the configuration.
The first free location created by reading from a full depth expansion
configuration will "bubble up" from the last FIFO to the previous one until it
finally moves into the first FIFO of the chain. Each time a free location is
created in one FIFO of the chain, that FIFO's IR line goes LOW, enabling
the preceding FIFO to write a word to fill it.

Figure 22. Block Diagram of 131,072 x 9 and 262,144 x 9 Depth Expansion
For a full expansion configuration, the amount of time it takes for IR of the first
FIFO in the chain to go LOW after a word has been read from the last FIFO is
the sum of the delays for each individual FIFO:
(N – 1)*(3*transfer clock) + 2 TWCLK
where N is the number of FIFOs in the expansion and TWCLK is the WCLK
period. Note that extra cycles should be added for the possibility that the
25
tSKEW1 specification is not met between RCLK and transfer clock, or WCLK and
transfer clock, for the IR flag.
The Transfer Clock line should be tied to either WCLK or RCLK,
whichever is faster. Both these actions result in data moving, as quickly as
possible, to the end of the chain and free locations to the beginning of the
chain.
