Functional Description
The CY7C460A, CY7C462A, CY7C4 64A, and CY7C46 6A are
respectivel y , 8K , 16K, 32K, and 64K words b y 9-bit wi de first-in
first-out (FIFO) memories. Each FIFO memory is organized
such that the data is read in the same sequential order that it
was written. Full and Empty flags are provi ded to pre ven t over run and underrun. Three additional pins are also provided to
facilitate unlimited expansion in width, depth, or both. The
depth expansi on technique st eers the cont rol signals fr om one
device to another by passing tokens.
The read and write operations may be asynchronous; each
can occur at a rate of up to 50 M Hz. The write ope ration o ccurs
when the Write (W
) signal is LOW. Read occurs when Read
(R
) goes LOW. The nine data outputs go to the high-imped-
ance state when R
is HIGH.
A Half Full (HF
) output flag is pr ovi ded that i s val id in th e standalone (single device) and width expansion configurations. In
the depth expan sion configur ation, this pin pro vides the expan sion out (XO
) info rmation tha t is used t o tell the ne xt FIFO tha t
it will be activated.
In the standalone and width expansion configur ati ons, a LOW
on the Retransmit (RT
) input causes the FIFOs to retransmit
the data. Read Enab le ( R
) and Write Enab le (W) must bot h be
HIGH during a retransmit cycle, and then R
is used to access
the data.
The CY7C460A, CY7C462A, CY7C4 64A, and CY7C46 6A are
fabricated usi ng Cy press’s adv anced 0.5µ RAM3 CMOS tech nology. Input ESD protection is greater than 2000V and
latch-up is prevented by careful layout and the use of guard
rings.
