Product details
Overview
SN74ABT7819A-10PN from Texas Instruments is a clocked bidirectional FIFO memory IC with two independent 512 × 18 dual-port SRAM buffers, 100 MHz maximum clock frequency, 9 ns access time at 50-pF load, and programmable almost-full/empty flags. It enables asynchronous data bridging between microprocessor buses operating on independent clocks CLKA and CLKB.
For engineers reviewing the SN74ABT7819A-10PN datasheet, SN74ABT7819A-10PN pinout, SN74ABT7819A-10PN application, or SN74ABT7819A-10PN equivalent, this device serves as a high-speed, low-power BiCMOS solution for clock domain crossing, protocol translation, and burst-mode buffering in telecom backplanes and industrial controllers.
Technical Context
The SN74ABT7819A-10PN implements two physically separate 512-word × 18-bit FIFOs (FIFOA–B and FIFOB–A), each with fully synchronous, clock-gated read/write paths. CLKA controls all port-A operations (IRA, ORA, HFA, AF/AEA), while CLKB governs port-B functions (IRB, ORB, HFB, AF/AEB).
Flag signals are two-stage synchronized to their respective clocks for metastability immunity; reset requires four clock transitions on both CLKA and CLKB; programmable AF/AE offsets (X/Y) are latched from A0–A7/B0–B7 during dedicated PENA/PENB cycles before first write.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Depth × Width × Ports | 512 × 18 × 2 - Two independent FIFOs support full-duplex buffering with no shared address/data arbitration logic. |
| Max Clock Frequency | 100 MHz - Enables sustained 1.8 Gbps aggregate throughput (18 bits × 100 MHz × 2 ports) in high-bandwidth interconnects. |
| Access Time | 9 ns @ 50 pF - Guarantees sub-10 ns data valid-to-clock setup for tight timing closure in 100 MHz systems. |
| Programmable Flags | AF/AEA & AF/AEB with X/Y offsets - Allows custom almost-full/almost-empty thresholds (e.g., 32/480 words) to optimize buffer utilization and prevent overflow/underflow. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - Compatible with standard 5-V TTL/ABT logic families and supports margin testing across rail tolerance. |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to 70°C - Qualified for commercial-grade embedded systems including network switches and PLC I/O modules. |
| Technology | Advanced BiCMOS - Delivers TTL-compatible drive strength (24 mA sink / –12 mA source) with CMOS-level static power efficiency. |
Pinout & Package
SN74ABT7819A-10PN is housed in an 80-pin Thin Plastic Quad Flatpack (PN) package with 0.5-mm lead pitch and exposed thermal pad. Pin numbering follows TI's standard top-view layout for PN packages.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A17 | Port-A bidirectional data bus | 18-bit parallel interface active only when CSA = L and W/RA = L (read) or H (write); high-impedance otherwise. |
| B0–B17 | Port-B bidirectional data bus | 18-bit parallel interface active only when CSB = L and W/RB = L (read) or H (write); high-impedance otherwise. |
| CLKA, CLKB | Free-running input clocks | Independent, asynchronous or coincident clocks; all port-A transfers synchronized to CLKA↑, all port-B to CLKB↑. |
| CSA, CSB | Chip select inputs | Enable port-A/B operation; must be low to assert W/RA/W/RB control and enable data bus drivers. |
| W/RA, W/RB | Port-A/B write/read direction select | High = write mode (data flows into FIFO), low = read mode (data flows out of FIFO); controls A0–A17/B0–B17 driver state. |
| WENA, WENB | Write enable inputs | High enables write on next CLKA↑/CLKB↑ when IRA/IRB = H; prevents writes when FIFO is full. |
| RENA, RENB | Read enable inputs | High enables read on next CLKA↑/CLKB↑ when ORA/ORB = H; prevents reads when FIFO is empty. |
| IRA, IRB | Input-ready flags | Synchronized to CLKA/CLKB; low indicates corresponding FIFO is full and write requests will be ignored. |
| ORA, ORB | Output-ready flags | Synchronized to CLKA/CLKB; high indicates valid data is present on A0–A17/B0–B17 outputs. |
| AF/AEA, AF/AEB | Programmable almost-full/empty flags | Assert high when FIFO depth ≤ X (almost empty) or ≥ (512 − Y) (almost full); offsets set via PENA/PENB + A0–A7/B0–B7. |
| HFA, HFB | Half-full flags | High when FIFO contains ≥ 256 words; provides coarse buffer occupancy indication without programming overhead. |
| RSTA, RSTB | FIFO reset inputs | Active-low; requires four CLKA+CLKB transitions to clear pointers, flags, and internal state for FIFOA–B/FIFOB–A respectively. |
| PENA, PENB | AF/AE offset programming enable | Low during CLKA↑/CLKB↑ latches A0–A7/B0–B7 as X/Y offset values; must be high to use default 128/128. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent 512 × 18 FIFOs | Eliminates need for external arbitration logic when bridging two synchronous buses with different clock domains. |
| Programmable almost-full/empty thresholds | Enables application-specific flow control tuning-e.g., setting AF/AEA to trigger DMA reload at 64 words remaining instead of fixed 128. |
| Two-stage synchronized flag outputs | Guarantees glitch-free, metastability-hardened status signaling directly usable by FPGA or ASIC control state machines. |
| 9 ns access time @ 50 pF | Supports 100 MHz operation with margin for PCB trace delays and signal integrity degradation in dense layouts. |
| BiCMOS output drivers | Delivers 24 mA sink current compatible with legacy TTL loads while maintaining low static power (<15 mA ICC disabled). |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar clocked FIFO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IDT72V2115L10PF | 3.3-V supply only; 512 × 18 × 2 configuration; 10 ns access; LVDS-compatible I/O | Requires level-shifting for 5-V systems; optimized for low-noise, high-density routing in telecom PHY layers | Select when migrating to 3.3-V infrastructure or requiring differential signaling robustness against EMI. |
| SN74ACT7819A-10PN | Same pinout and function but ACT logic family; 4.5–5.5 V supply; 10 ns access; higher drive (24 mA) but higher ICC | Compatible drop-in replacement with identical timing and control; slightly higher power consumption | Choose when ABT drive strength is insufficient or when ACT-family noise immunity is preferred in noisy industrial environments. |
Compared with IDT72V2115L10PF and SN74ACT7819A-10PN, the SN74ABT7819A-10PN offers optimal balance of 5-V compatibility, 9 ns speed, and BiCMOS power efficiency-making it ideal for cost-sensitive, mixed-voltage legacy systems where pin-for-pin upgrade paths are constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported clock frequency for SN74ABT7819A-10PN?
The SN74ABT7819A-10PN supports a maximum clock frequency of 100 MHz on both CLKA and CLKB inputs under recommended operating conditions (VCC = 4.5 V to 5.5 V, TA = 0°C to 70°C). This rating is validated with 50-pF load and accounts for worst-case process/voltage/temperature corners per the SCBS756 datasheet.
How does the programmable almost-full/empty flag (AF/AEA) operate in SN74ABT7819A-10PN?
The AF/AEA flag in SN74ABT7819A-10PN asserts high when FIFOA–B contains ≤ X words (almost-empty) or ≥ (512 − Y) words (almost-full), where X and Y are programmable offsets. These values are latched from A0–A7 during PENA-controlled CLKA transitions after reset; default is X = Y = 128 if PENA remains high.
Can SN74ABT7819A-10PN interface directly with 3.3-V logic systems?
No-SN74ABT7819A-10PN operates strictly at 4.5 V to 5.5 V and is not 3.3-V tolerant. Its inputs require VIH ≥ 2.0 V and VIL ≤ 0.8 V, and outputs swing rail-to-rail within the 5-V supply. Direct connection to 3.3-V devices requires level-shifting circuitry or voltage translators to avoid damage or undefined logic states.
What is the function of the RSTA and RSTB pins on SN74ABT7819A-10PN?
RSTA and RSTB are active-low asynchronous reset inputs for FIFOA–B and FIFOB–A respectively. Each requires four low-to-high transitions on both CLKA and CLKB while held low to fully clear pointers, flags (IRA, ORB, HFA, AF/AEA), and internal state-ensuring deterministic initialization before new data transfer sequences.
Does SN74ABT7819A-10PN support simultaneous read and write operations on the same FIFO?
No-each FIFO (FIFOA–B and FIFOB–A) is single-port in operation: port-A accesses only FIFOA–B for write and FIFOB–A for read, while port-B accesses only FIFOB–A for write and FIFOA–B for read. True simultaneous R/W on one memory block is not supported; the architecture enforces strict directional separation per port pair.
