What is a FIFO Memory?
FIFO (First-In, First-Out) memory are essential ICs (integrated circuits) designed to be used in buffering applications and temporarily store data for further analysis. As the name suggests, these chips trigger the release of data as it is received and are typically ideal for preventing data loss and increasing the bandwidth in high-speed communication systems.
FIFO is the generic term for storing memory, and their inputs/outputs come as unidirectional or bidirectional, depending on the device. Furthermore, they are equipped with programmable flags, control logic, and write pointers. In addition, bespoke memory chips are available in various standard packages, including PLCC, SOIC, or LQFP.
How to Select FIFO Memory?
Choosing First-in, First-out memory requires performance specifications’ analysis, including:
- Memory size
- Package type
- Mounting type
- Density
- Bits per word (BPW)
- Supply voltage
- Operating temperature
Synchronous FIFO:
A synchronous First-in, First-out is a queue that features a clock pulse designed for reading and writing data at the same rate. These operations are completed using a single pulse clock, in contrast to asynchronous FIFO, which employs different clocks. These FIFO features have an exceedingly high speed and are primarily found in high-speed systems. Additionally, due to their free running clocks, they are easily handled at high-speed.
What Are the Typical Applications of FIFO Memory?
These memory chips are ideal for temporary data storage and buffering applications. They are mostly found in various devices, such as:
- Communications
- Networking
- PCs
- Cameras
- TVs
- Disk Controllers
- Multimedia.
