Functional Description
THe CY7C42X1 are high-speed, low-power, first-in first-out
(FIFO) memories with clocked read and write interfaces. All
are 9 bits wide. The CY7C42X1 are pin-compatible to
IDT722X1. Programmable features include Almost Full/Almost
Empty flags. These FIFOs provide solutions for a wide variety
of data buffering needs, including high-speed data acquisition,
multiprocessor interfaces, and communications buffering.
These FIFOs have 9-bit input and output ports that are con-
trolled by separate clock and enable signals. The input port is
controlled by a free-running clock (WCLK) and two write-en-
able 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 CY7C42X1
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 100 MHz are
achievable.
Depth expansion is possible using one enable input for system
control, while the other enable is controlled by expansion logic
to direct the flow of data.

Functional Description
(continued)
The CY7C42X1 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, i.e., 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 0.65µ
N-Well CMOS technology. Input ESD protection is greater than
2001V, and latch-up is prevented by the use of guard rings.

Data Inputs for 9-bit bus

The only write enable when device is configured to have programmable flags. Data is
written on a LOW-to-HIGH transition of WCLK when WEN1 is asserted and FF is HIGH.
If the FIFO is configured to have two write enables, data is written on a LOW-to-HIGH transition
of WCLK when WEN1 is LOW and WEN2/LD and FF are HIGH.
If HIGH at reset, this pin operates as a second write enable. If LOW at reset, this pin
operates as a control to write or read the programmable flag offsets. WEN1 must be
LOW and WEN2 must be HIGH to write data into the FIFO. Data will not be written into the FIFO
if the FF is LOW. If the FIFO is configured to have programmable flags, WEN2/LD is held LOW
to write or read the programmable flag offsets.
Enables the device for Read operation.
The rising edge clocks data into the FIFO when WEN1 is LOW and WEN2/LD is HIGH
and the FIFO is not Full. When LD is asserted, WCLK writes data into the programmable flag-off-
set register.
The rising edge clocks data out of the FIFO when REN1 and REN2 are LOW and the FIFO
is not Empty. When WEN2/LD is LOW, RCLK reads data out of the programmable flag-offset
register.
When EF is LOW, the FIFO is empty. EF is synchronized to RCLK.
When FF is LOW, the FIFO is full. FF is synchronized to WCLK.
When PAE is LOW, the FIFO is almost empty based on the almost empty offset value pro-
grammed into the FIFO.
When PAF is LOW, the FIFO is almost full based on the almost full offset value programmed
into the FIFO.
Resets device to empty condition. A reset is required before an initial read or write
operation after power-up.
When OE is LOW, the FIFO’s data outputs drive the bus to which they are connected. If OE is
HIGH, the FIFO’s outputs are in High Z (high-impedance) state.
