Product details
Overview
IDT7200L12SOG from Renesas Electronics (formerly IDT) is a 256 × 9-bit asynchronous CMOS FIFO memory IC used for rate buffering and data synchronization between mismatched clock domains or bus protocols. It features 12 ns access time, ultra-high-speed operation, dual-port first-in/first-out architecture, and status flags (Empty, Full, Half-Full) to prevent overflow/underflow - deployed in industrial communications controllers and legacy military avionics interface modules.
For engineers reviewing the IDT7200L12SOG datasheet, IDT7200L12SOG pinout, IDT7200L12SOG application, or IDT7200L12SOG equivalent, key selection criteria include its 256-word depth with 9-bit width (supporting parity), 5 V single-supply operation, industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), and compatibility with depth/width expansion architectures for scalable buffering.
Technical Context
This FIFO implements ring-pointer-based sequential read/write without external address management, using independent W (write) and R (read) control lines. Its internal RAM array is 256 × 9 bits, with dedicated EF, FF, and XO/HF flag outputs driven by pointer comparison logic.
The device supports three operating modes: Single Device (XI grounded), Depth Expansion (daisy-chained via XI/XO), and Width Expansion (parallel data buses). Retransmit (RT) capability resets the read pointer to zero while preserving the write pointer - critical for re-sending protocol frames in serial link recovery scenarios.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 256 × 9-bit (256 words, 9-bit wide - supports 8 data + 1 parity bit) |
| Access Time (tA) | 12 ns max - enables ≤83 MHz effective throughput in flow-through mode |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5 V TTL/CMOS logic rails |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded systems |
| Power Consumption | Active: 440 mW max (80 mA @ 5 V); Power-down: 28 mW max (5 mA @ 5 V) |
| Status Flags | EF (Empty), FF (Full), XO/HF (Half-Full or Expansion Out) - real-time buffer occupancy monitoring |
| Retransmit Function | RT input pulses reset read pointer to start address - enables deterministic frame retransmission without write interruption |
Pinout & Package
Package: 28-pin SOIC (SO28-3), surface-mount, green (Pb-free) variant per ordering suffix "G".
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| W | Write Enable Input | Falling-edge-triggered write strobe; initiates storage of D0–D8 into next FIFO location if FF = HIGH |
| R | Read Enable Input | Falling-edge-triggered read strobe; outputs Q0–Q8 from current FIFO location if EF = HIGH |
| D0–D8 | Data Inputs | 9-bit parallel input bus; latched on W falling edge - supports parity bit insertion |
| Q0–Q8 | Data Outputs | 9-bit parallel output bus; high-impedance when R = HIGH - enables bus sharing |
| EF, FF, XO/HF | Status Flag Outputs | Open-drain active-low flags: EF=LOW = empty; FF=LOW = full; XO/HF=LOW = half-full (single mode) or expansion pulse (daisy-chain mode) |
| RS | Reset Input | Active-low synchronous reset - sets both read/write pointers to zero; required at power-up before first write |
| FL/RT | Dual-function Input | In single mode: RT (Retransmit); in depth expansion: FL (First Load) - selects device role in chain |
| XI | Expansion In Input | Grounded in single mode; tied to XO of prior device in depth expansion - configures daisy-chain topology |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Asynchronous Dual-Port Operation | Independent W and R clocks allow simultaneous read/write across unrelated timing domains - eliminates inter-clock domain synchronization logic |
| Expandable Architecture | Depth expansion (via XI/XO chaining) and width expansion (parallel devices) support custom FIFO sizes up to 64k × 9 without redesign |
| Auto-Retransmit Capability | Pulsing RT LOW resets read pointer to zero while preserving write pointer - enables repeat transmission of buffered command sequences |
| 9-Bit Data Width with Parity Support | Extra bit accommodates hardware parity generation/checking - essential for error-resilient serial communication links (e.g., MIL-STD-1553, RS-422) |
| MIL-STD-883 Class B Compliance | Qualified for military applications including avionics and ground vehicle control systems requiring extended temperature and reliability validation |
Applications
