description
The SN74ACT7200L, SN74ACT7201LA, and
SN74ACT7202LA are constructed with dual-port
SRAM and have internal write and read address
counters to provide data throughput on a first-in,
first-out (FIFO) basis. Write and read operations
are independent and can be asynchronous or
coincident. Empty and full status flags prevent
underflow and overflow of memory, and
depth-expansion logic allows combining the
storage cells of two or more devices into one
FIFO. Word-width expansion is also possible.

Data is loaded into memory by the write-enable
(W) input and unloaded by the read-enable (R)
input. Read and write cycle times of 25 ns
(40 MHz) are possible with data access times of
15 ns.
NC – No internal connection
These devices are particularly suited for providing a data channel between two buses operating at
asynchronous rates. Applications include use as rate buffers from analog-to-digital converters in data-
acquisition systems, temporary storage elements between buses and magnetic or optical memories, and
queues for communication systems. A 9-bit-wide data path is provided for the transmission of byte data plus
a parity bit or packet-framing information. The read pointer can be reset independently of the write pointer for
retransmitting previously read data when a device is not used in depth expansion.
The SN74ACT7200L, SN74ACT7201LA, and SN74ACT7202LA are characterized for operation from 0°C
to 70°C.
