DESCRIPTION:
The IDT72132/72142 are high-speed, low-power serial-to-
parallel FIFOs. These FIFOs are ideally suited to serial
communications applications, tape/disk controllers, and local
area networks (LANs). These devices can be configured with
the IDTs parallel-to-serial FIFOs (IDT72131/72141) for bidi-
rectional serial data buffering.
The FIFO has a serial input port and a 9-bit parallel output
port. Wider and deeper serial-to-parallel data buffers can be
built using multiple IDT72132/72142 chips. IDTs unique
Flexshift serial expansion logic (SIX,
NW
) makes width
expansion possible with no additional components. These
FIFOs will expand to a variety of word widths including 8, 9, 16,
and 32 bits. These devices can also be directly connected for
depth expansion.
Five flags are provided to monitor the FIFO. The Full and
Empty flags prevent any FIFO data overflow or underflow
conditions. The Almost-Full (7/8), Half-Full, and Almost-Empty
(1/8) flags signal memory utilization within the FIFO.
The IDT72132/72142 is fabricated using IDTs high-speed
submicron CMOS technology.

Description
Serial data is shifted in least significant bit first. In the serial cascade mode, the Serial Input
(SI) pins are tied together and SIX plus D
7
, D
8
determine which device stores the data.
When
RS
is set LOW, internal READ and WRITE pointers are set to the first location of the
RAM array.
HF
and
FF
go HIGH, and
AEF
, and
EF
go LOW. A reset is required before an initial
WRITE after power-up.
R
must be HIGH during an
RS
cycle.
To program the Serial In word width , connect
NW
with one of the Data Set pins (D
7
, D
8
).
Serial data is read into the serial input register on the rising edge of SICP. In both Depth and
Serial Word Width Expansion modes, all of the SICP pins are tied together.
When READ is LOW, data can be read from the RAM array sequentially, independent of SICP.
In order for READ to be active,
EF
must be HIGH. When the FIFO is empty (
EF
-LOW), the
internal READ operation is blocked and Q
0
-Q
8
are in a high impedance condition.
This is a dual-purpose input. In the single device configuration (
XI
grounded), activating
retransmit (
FL
/
RT
-LOW) will set the internal READ pointer to the first location. There is no
effect on the WRITE pointer.
R
must be HIGH and SICP must be LOW before setting
FL
/
RT
LOW. Retransmit is not possible in depth expansion. In the depth expansion configuration,
FL
/
RT
grounded indicates the first activated device.
In the single device configuration,
XI
is grounded. In depth expansion or daisy chain
expansion,
XI
is connected to
XO
(expansion out) of the previous device.

In the Expansion mode, the SIX pin of the least significant device is tied HIGH. The SIX pin
of all other devices is connected to the D
7
or D
8
pin of the previous device. For single device
operation, SIX is tied HIGH.
When
OE
is set LOW, the parallel output buffers receive data from the RAM array. When
OE
is set HIGH, parallel three state buffers inhibit data flow.
Data outputs for 9-bit wide data.
When
FF
goes LOW, the device is full and data must not be clocked by SICP. When
HIGH, the device is not full. See the diagram on page 7 for more details.

When
EF
goes LOW, the device is empty and further READ operations are inhibited. When
EF
is HIGH, the device is not empty.
When
AEF
is LOW, the device is empty to 1/8 full or 7/8 to completely full. When
AEF
is HIGH,
the device is greater than 1/8 full, but less than 7/8 full.
This is a dual-purpose output. In the single device configuration (
XI
grounded), the device is
more than half full when
HF
is LOW. In the depth expansion configuration (
XO
connected to
XI
of the next device), a pulse is sent from

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Serial Data Input
The serial data is input on the SI pin. The data is clocked
in on the rising edge of SICP providing the Full Flag (
FF
) is not
asserted. If the Full Flag is asserted then the next parallel data
word is inhibited from moving into the RAM array. NOTE:
SICP should not be clocked once the last bit of the last word
has been shifted in, as indicated by
NW
HIGH and
FF
LOW.
If it is, then the input data will be lost.
The serial word is shifted in Least Significant Bit first. Thus,
when the FIFO is read, the Least Significant Bit will come out
on Q
0
and the second bit is on Q
1
and so on. The serial word
width must be programmed by connecting the appropriate
Data Set line (D
7
, D
8
) to the
NW
input. The data set lines are
taps off a digital delay line. Selecting one of these taps
programs the width of the serial word to be written in.
Parallel Data Output
A read cycle is initiated on the falling edge of Read (
R
)
provided the Empty Flag is not set. The output data is
accessed on a first-in/first-out basis, independent of the
ongoing write operations. The data is available t
A
after the
falling edge of
R
and the output bus Q goes into high imped-
ance after
R
goes HIGH.
Alternately, the user can access the FIFO by keeping
R
LOW and enabling data on the bus by asserting Output
Enable (
OE
). When
R
is LOW, the
OE
signal enables data on
the output bus. When
R
is LOW and
OE
is HIGH, the output
bus is three-stated. When
R
is HIGH, the output bus is
disabled irrespective of
OE
.
