DESCRIPTION:
The IDT72511 and IDT72521 are highly integrated first-in, first-out memo-
ries that enhance processor-to-processor and processor-to-peripheral com-
munications. IDT BiFIFOs integrate two side-by-side memory arrays for data
transfers in two directions.
The BiFIFOs have two ports, A and B, that both have standard micropro-
cessor interfaces. All BiFIFO operations are controlled from the 18-bit wide
Port A. Port B is also 18 bits wide and can be connected to another processor
or a peripheral controller. The BiFIFOs have a 9-bit bypass path that allows
the device connected to Port A to pass messages directly to the Port B device.
Ten registers are accessible through Port A, Command Register, a Status
Register, and eight Configuration Registers.
The IDT BiFIFO has programmable flags. Each FIFO memory array has
four internal flags, Empty, Almost-Empty, Almost-Full and Full, for a total of
eight internal flags. The Almost-Empty and Almost-Full flag offsets can be set to
any depth through the Configuration Registers. These eight internal flags can
be assigned to any of four external flag pins (FLG
A
-FLG
D
) through one
Configuration Register.
Port B has programmable I/O, reread/rewrite and DMA functions. Six
programmable I/O pins are manipulated through two Configuration Registers.
The Reread and Rewrite controls will read or write Port B data blocks multiple
times. The BiFIFO has three pins, REQ, ACK and CLK, to control DMA
transfers from Port B devices.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
IDT’s BiFIFO family is versatile for both multiprocessor and peripheral
applications. Data can be sent through both FIFO memories concurrently,
thus freeing both processors from laborious direct memory access (DMA)
protocols and frequent interrupts.
Two full 18-bit wide FIFOs are integrated into the IDT BiFIFO, making
simultaneous data exchange possible. Each FIFO is monitored by separate
internal read and write pointers, so communication is not only bidirectional, it
is also totally independent in each direction. The processor connected to Port
A of the BiFIFO can send or receive messages directly to the Port B device
using the BiFIFO’s 9-bit bypass path.
The BiFIFO can be used in different bus configurations: 18 bits to 18
bits and 36 bits to 36 bits. One BiFIFO can be used for the 18- to 18-bit
configuration, and two BiFIFOs are required for 36- to 36-bit configuration.
This configuration can be extended to wider bus widths (54- to 54-bits, 72-
to 72-bits, …) by adding more BiFIFOs to the configuration.
The microprocessor or microcontroller connected to Port A controls all
operations of the BiFIFO. Thus, all Port A interface pins are inputs driven
by the controlling processor. Port B can be programmed to interface
either with a second processor or a peripheral device. When Port B is
programmed in processor interface mode, the Port B interface pins are
inputs driven by the second processor. If a peripheral device is connected
to the BiFIFO, Port B is programmed to peripheral interface mode and the
interface pins are outputs.
18- TO 18-BIT CONFIGURATIONS
A single BiFIFO can be configured to connect an 18-bit processor to
another 18-bit processor or an 18-bit peripheral. The upper BiFIFO shown
in each of the Figures 1 and 2 can be used in 18- to 18-bit configurations for
processor and peripheral interface modes respectively.
36- TO 36-BIT CONFIGURATIONS
In a 36- to 36-bit configuration, two BiFIFOs operate in parallel. Both
BiFIFOs are programmed simultaneously, 18 data bits to each device.
Figures 1 and 2 show multiple BiFIFOs configured for processor and
peripheral interface modes respectively.
PROCESSOR INTERFACE MODE
When a microprocessor or microcontroller is connected to Port B, all
BiFIFOs in the configuration must be programmed to processor interface
mode. In this mode, all Port B interface controls are inputs. Both REQ and
CLK pins should be pulled LOW to ensure that the setup and hold time
requirements for these pins are met during reset. Figure 1 shows the
BiFIFO in processor interface mode.
PERIPHERAL INTERFACE MODE
If Port B is connected to a peripheral controller, all BiFIFOs in the
configuration must be programmed in peripheral interface mode. In this
mode, all the Port B interface pins are all outputs. To assure fixed high
states for
R
B
and
W
B
before they are programmed into an output, these
two pins should be pulled up to V
CC
with 10K resistors. Of course, only
one set of Port B interface pins should be used to control a single
peripheral device, while the other interface pins are all ignored. Figure 2
shows a BiFIFO configuration connected to a peripheral.
