The 74F403A is an expandable fall-through type highspeed First-In First-Out (FIFO) Buffer Memory optimized
for high-speed disk or tape cont rollers a nd commu nication
buffer applications. It is organized as 16-words by 4-bits
and may be expanded to any number of words or any number of bits in multiples of four. Data may be entered or
extracted asynchronously in serial or parallel, allowing economical implementation of buffer memories.
The 74F403A has 3- STATE outputs which provide a dded
versatility and is fully compatible with all TTL families.

Functional Description
As shown in the Block Diag ram the 74F403A consists of
three sections:
1. An Input register with parallel and serial data inputs as
well as control inp uts and outputs f or input handsha king and expansion.
2. A 4-bit wide, 14-wo rd deep fall- through stack with selfcontained control logic.
3. An Output Register with parallel and serial data outputs
as well as control inputs an d outputs for output hand shaking and expansion.
Since these three sections operate asynchronously and
almost independently, they will be described separately
below.
INPUT REGISTER (DATA ENTR Y)
The Input Register can receive data in either bit-serial or in
4-bit parallel form. It stores this data un til it is sent to the
fall-through stack an d genera tes the ne cessary statu s and
control signals.

As described later, this 5-bit register is initialized by setting

“fall-through” action. If the top location of the stack is

only when it is necessary to wait for an empty next location.
In the 74F403A as in most modern FIFO designs, the MR
input only initializes the stack con trol section and do es not
clear the data.
OUTPUT REGISTER (DATA EXTRACTION)
The Output Register receives 4-bit data words from the
bottom stack location, stores it and outputs data on a 3STATE 4-bit parallel data bus or on a 3-S TATE serial data
bus. The output section generates and receives the necessary status and con trol signals. Figure 3 is a conceptual
logic diagram of the output sect ion.

FIFO are shown in Figur e 4. Using the same technique,
and FIFO of (15n + 1 )-word s by 4- bits can be constr ucted,
where n is the number of devices. Note that expansion
does not sacrifice any of the 74F403A’s flexibility for serial/
parallel input and output.

interconnections necessary to form a 31-word by 16-bit

any FIFO of (15m + 1)-words by (4n)-bits can be constructed, where m is the number of device s in a column
and n is the number of devices in a row. Figure 7 and Figure 8 show the timing d iagrams for serial data en try and

Interlocking Circuitry— Most conventional FIFO designs
provide status signal s analogous to IRF
ever, when these devices are operated in arrays, variations
in unit to unit o perating speed require externa l gating to
assure all devices have completed an operation. The
74F403A incorporate s simple but effective “master/slav e”
interlocking circuitry to elimin ate the ne ed for ext ernal gating.
In the 74F403A array of Figure 6 devices 1 and 5 are
defined as “row masters” and the other devices ar e slaves
to the master in their row. No slave in a given row will in itialize its Input Register until it ha s received LOW on its IES
input from a row master or a slave of higher priority.

The row master is estab lished by connecting its IES
to ground while a slave receives its IES
