These FIFOs have 18-bit input and output ports that are
controlled by separate clock and enable signals. The input port
is controlled by a Free-Running Clock (WCLK) and a Write
Enable pin (WEN).
When WEN is asserted, data is written into the FIFO on the rising
edge of the WCLK signal. While WEN is held active, data is
continually written into the FIFO on each cycle. The output port
is controlled in a similar manner by a Free-Running Read Clock
(RCLK) and a Read Enable pin (REN). In addition, the
CY7C42X5V have an Output Enable pin (OE). The read and
write 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 66 MHz are
achievable.
Retransmit and Synchronous Almost Full/Almost Empty flag
features are available on these devices.
Depth expansion is possible using the Cascade Input (WXI,
RXI), Cascade Output (WXO, RXO), and First Load (FL) pins.
The WXO and RXO pins are connected to the WXI and RXI pins
of the next device, and the WXO and RXO pins of the last device
should be connected to the WXI and RXI pins of the first device.
The FL pin of the first device is tied to VSS and the FL pin of all
the remaining devices should be tied to VCC.
The CY7C42X5V provides five status pins. These pins are
decoded to determine one of five states: Empty, Almost Empty,
Half Full, Almost Full, and Full (see Table 2). The Half Full flag
shares the WXO pin. This flag is valid in the stand-alone and
width-expansion configurations. In the depth expansion, this pin
provides the expansion out (WXO) information that is used to
signal the next FIFO when it will be activated.
The Empty and Full 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 states, the flag is
updated exclusively by the RCLK. The flag denoting Full states
is updated exclusively by WCLK. The synchronous flag architecture guarantees that the flags will remain valid from one clock
cycle to the next. As mentioned previously, the Almost
Empty/Almost Full flags become synchronous if the
VCC/SMODE is tied to VSS. All configurations are fabricated
using an advanced 0.65μ P-Well CMOS technology. Input ESD
protection is greater than 2001V, and latch-up is prevented by
the use of guard rings.

CY7C4225V/4215V
CY7C4235V/4245V
Architecture
Programming
The CY7C42X5V consists of an array of 64 to 4K words of 18
bits each (implemented by a dual-port array of SRAM cells), a
read pointer, a write pointer, control signals (RCLK, WCLK, REN,
WEN, RS), and flags (EF, PAE, HF, PAF, FF). The CY7C42X5V
also includes the control signals WXI, RXI, WXO, RXO for depth
expansion.
The CY7C42X5V devices contain two 12-bit offset registers.
Data present on D0–11 during a program write will determine the
distance from Empty (Full) that the Almost Empty (Almost Full)
flags become active. If the user elects not to program the FIFO’s
flags, the default offset values are used (see Table 2). When the
Load LD pin is set LOW and WEN is set LOW, data on the inputs
D0–11 is written into the Empty offset register on the first
LOW-to-HIGH transition of the write clock (WCLK). When the LD
pin and WEN are held LOW then data is written into the Full offset
register on the second LOW-to-HIGH transition of the Write
Clock (WCLK). The third transition of the Write Clock (WCLK)
again writes to the Empty offset register (see Table 1). Writing all
offset registers does not have to occur at one time. One or two
offset registers can be written and then, by bringing the LD pin
HIGH, the FIFO is returned to normal read/write operation. When
the LD pin is set LOW, and WEN is LOW, the next offset register
in sequence is written.
Resetting the FIFO
Upon power-up, the FIFO must be reset with a Reset (RS) cycle.
This causes the FIFO to enter the Empty condition signified by
EF being LOW. All data outputs go LOW after the falling edge of
RS only if OE is asserted. In order for the FIFO to reset to its
default state, a falling edge must occur on RS and the user must
not read or write while RS is LOW.
FIFO Operation
When the WEN signal is active (LOW), data present on the D0-17
pins is written into the FIFO on each rising edge of the WCLK
signal. Similarly, when the REN signal is active LOW, data in the
FIFO memory will be presented on the Q0−17 outputs. New data
will be presented on each rising edge of RCLK while REN is
active LOW and OE is LOW. REN must set up tENS before RCLK
for it to be a valid read function. WEN must occur tENS before
WCLK for it to be a valid write function.
An Output Enable (OE) pin is provided to three-state the Q0–17
outputs when OE is deasserted. When OE is enabled (LOW),
data in the output register will be available to the Q0−17 outputs
after tOE. If devices are cascaded, the OE function will only
output data on the FIFO that is read enabled.
The FIFO contains overflow circuitry to disallow additional writes
when the FIFO is full, and underflow circuitry to disallow
additional reads when the FIFO is empty. An empty FIFO
maintains the data of the last valid read on its Q0−17 outputs even
after additional reads occur.
The contents of the offset registers can be read on the output
lines when the LD pin is set LOW and REN is set LOW; then,
data can be read on the LOW-to-HIGH transition of the Read
Clock (RCLK).

Flag Operation
that the FIFO is either Almost Full or Almost Empty. See Table 2
for a description of programmable flags.
The CY7C42X5V devices provide five flag pins to indicate the
condition of the FIFO contents. Empty and Full are synchronous.
PAE and PAF are synchronous if VCC/SMODE is tied to VSS.
When the SMODE pin is tied LOW, the PAF flag signal transition
is caused by the rising edge of the write clock and the PAE flag
transition is caused by the rising edge of the read clock.
Full Flag
Retransmit
The Full Flag (FF) will go LOW when device is Full. Write operations are inhibited whenever FF is LOW regardless of the state
of WEN. FF is synchronized to WCLK, i.e., it is exclusively
updated by each rising edge of WCLK.
The retransmit feature is beneficial when transferring packets of
data. It enables the receipt of data to be acknowledged by the
receiver and retransmitted if necessary.
Empty Flag
The Empty Flag (EF) will go LOW when the device is empty.
Read operations are inhibited whenever EF is LOW, regardless
of the state of REN. EF is synchronized to RCLK, i.e., it is exclusively updated by each rising edge of RCLK.
Programmable Almost Empty/Almost Full Flag
The CY7C42X5V features programmable Almost Empty and
Almost Full Flags. Each flag can be programmed (described in
the Programming section) a specific distance from the corresponding boundary flags (Empty or Full). When the FIFO
contains the number of words or fewer for which the flags have
been programmed, the PAF or PAE will be asserted, signifying
The Retransmit (RT) input is active in the standalone and width
expansion modes. The retransmit feature is intended for use
when a number of writes equal to or less than the depth of the
FIFO have occurred since the last RS cycle. A HIGH pulse on
RT resets the internal read pointer to the first physical location of
the FIFO. WCLK and RCLK may be free running but must be
disabled during and tRTR after the retransmit pulse. With every
valid read cycle after retransmit, previously accessed data is
read and the read pointer is incremented until it is equal to the
write pointer. Flags are governed by the relative locations of the
read and write pointers and are updated during a retransmit
cycle. Data written to the FIFO after activation of RT are transmitted also.
The full depth of the FIFO can be repeatedly retransmitted.

Width Expansion Configuration
The CY7C42X5V can be expanded in width to provide word widths greater than 18 in increments of 18. During width expansion mode
all control line inputs are common and all flags are available. Empty (Full) flags should be created by ANDing the Empty (Full) flags
of every FIFO. This technique will avoid ready data from the FIFO that is “staggered” by one clock cycle due to the variations in skew
between RCLK and WCLK. Figure demonstrates a 36-word width by using two CY7C42X5V.

Depth Expansion Configuration (with Programmable Flags)
The CY7C42X5V can easily be adapted to applications requiring more than 64/256/512/1024/2048/4096 words of buffering. Figure
shows Depth Expansion using three CY7C42X5Vs. Maximum depth is limited only by signal loading. Follow these steps:
1. The first device must be designated by grounding the First Load (FL) control input.
2. All other devices must have FL in the HIGH state.
3. The Write Expansion Out (WXO) pin of each device must be tied to the Write Expansion In (WXI) pin of the next device.
4. The Read Expansion Out (RXO) pin of each device must be tied to the Read Expansion In (RXI) pin of the next device.
5. All Load (LD) pins are tied together.
6. The Half-Full Flag (HF) is not available in the Depth Expansion Configuration.
7. EF, FF, PAE, and PAF are created with composite flags by ORing together these respective flags for monitoring. The composite
PAE and PAF flags are not precise.

4. The Voltage on any input or I/O pin cannot exceed the power pin during power-up
5. The VIH and VIL specifications apply for all inputs except WXI, RXI. The WXI, RXI pin is not a TTL input. It is connected to either RXO, WXO of the previous
device or VSS.
6. Input signals switch from 0V to 3V with a rise/fall time less than 3 ns, clocks and clock enables switch at 20 MHz, while the data inputs switch at 10 MHz. Outputs
are unloaded.
7. All inputs = VCC − 0.2V, except WCLK and RCLK, which are switching at 20 MHz.
8. Tested initially and after any design or process changes that may affect these parameters

15. tSKEW2 is the minimum time between a rising WCLK edge and a rising RCLK edge to guarantee that EF will go HIGH during the current clock cycle. It the time between
the rising edge of WCLK and the rising edge of RCLK is less than tSKEW2, then EF may not change state until the next RCLK edge.
16. The clocks (RCLK, WCLK) can be free-running during reset.
17. After reset, the outputs will be LOW if OE = 0 and three-state if OE = 1.

33. Clocks are free running in this case.
34. The flags may change state during Retransmit as a result of the offset of the read and write pointers, but flags will be valid at tRTR.
35. For the synchronous PAE and PAF flags (SMODE), an appropriate clock cycle is necessary after tRTR to update these flags.
