9403A

First-In First-Out (FIFO) Buffer Memory

Fairchild Semiconductor 

Functional Description (Continued)

EXPANSION

Vertical Expansion—The 9403A may be vertically

expanded to store more words without external parts. The

interconnection is necessary to form a 46-word by 4-bit

FIFO are shown in Figure 4. Using the same technique,

and FIFO of (15n + 1)-words by 4-bits can be constructed,

where n is the number of devices. Note that expansion

does not sacrifice any of the 9403A’s flexibility for serial/

parallel input and output.

Horizontal Expansion—The 9403A can also be horizon-

tally expanded to store long words (in multiples of four bits)

without external logic. The interconnections necessary to

form a 16-word by 12-bit FIFO are shown in Figure 5.

Using the same technique, any FIFO of 16 words by 4n bits

can be constructed, where n is the number of devices. The

IRF output of the right most device (most significant device)

is connected to the TTS inputs of all devices. Similarly, the

ORE output of the most significant device is connected to

the TOS inputs of all devices. As in the vertical expansion

scheme, horizontal expansion does not sacrifice any of the

9403A’s flexibility for serial/parallel input and output.

Horizontal and Vertical Expansion—The 9403A can be

expanded in both the horizontal and vertical directions

without any external parts and without sacrificing any of its

FIFO’s flexibility for serial/parallel input and output. The

interconnections necessary to form a 31-word by 16-bit

FIFO are shown in Figure 6. Using the same technique,

any FIFO of (15m + 1)-words by (4n)-bits can be con-

structed, where m is the number of devices in a column

and n is the number of devices in a row. Figure 7 and Fig-

ure 8 show the timing diagrams for serial data entry and

extraction for the 31-word by 16-bit FIFO shown in Figure

6. The final position of data after serial insertion of 496 bits

into the FIFO array of Figure 6 is shown in Figure 9.

Interlocking Circuitry—Most conventual FIFO designs

provide status signals analogous to IRF and ORE. How-

ever, when these devices are operated in arrays, variations

in unit to unit operating speed require external gating to

assure all devices have completed an operation. The

9403A incorporates simple but effective “master/slave”

interlocking circuitry to eliminate the need for external gat-

ing.

In the 9403A array of Figure 6 devices 1 and 5 are defined

as “row masters” and the other devices are slaves to the

master in their row. No slave in a given row will initialize its

Input Register until it has received LOW on its IES input

from a row master or a slave of higher priority.

In a similar fashion, the ORE outputs of slaves will not go

HIGH until their OES inputs have gone HIGH. This inter-

locking scheme ensures that new input data may be

accepted by the array when the IRF output of the final

slave in that row goes HIGH and that output data for the

array may be extracted when the ORE of the final slave in

the output row goes HIGH.

The row master is established by connecting its IES input

to ground while a slave receives it IES input from the IRF

output of the next higher priority device. When an array of

9403A FIFOs is initialized with a LOW on the MR inputs of

all devices, the IRF outputs of all devices will be HIGH.

Thus, only the row master receives a LOW on the IES input

during initialization. Figure 10 is a conceptual logic diagram

of the internal circuitry which determines master/slave

operation. Whenever MR and IES are LOW, the Master

Latch is set. Whenever TTS goes LOW the Request Initial-

ization Flip-Flop will be set. If the Master Latch is HIGH, the

input Register will be immediately initialized and the

Request Initialization Flip-Flop reset. If the Master Latch is

reset, the Input Register is not initialized until IES goes

LOW. In array operation, activating the TTS initiates a rip-

ple input register initialization from the row master to the

last slave.

A similar operation takes place for the output register.

Either a TOS or TOP input initiates a load-from-stack oper-

ation and sets the ORE Request Flip-Flop. If the Master

Latch is set, the last Output Register Flip-Flop is set and

ORE goes HIGH. If the Master latch is reset, the ORE out-

put will be LOW until an OES input is received.
