6.7 Parallel FIFO – Synchronous Mode
The Parallel FIFO Synchronous mode has an eight bit data bus, individual read and write strobes, two
hardware flow control signals, an output enable and a clock out.
The synchronous FIFO mode uses the parallel FIFO interface signals detailed in Table 28 and an
additional two signals detailed in Table 30.
This mode is not available on the 32 pin packages.

6.7.1 Read / Write Transaction Synchronous FIFO Mode
When in Synchronous FIFO interface mode, the timing of read and write operations on the FIFO interface
are shown in Figure 6-23 Synchronous FIFO mode Read / Write Cycle and Table 31 Synchronous
FIFO mode Read / Write Timing
In synchronous mode data can be transmitted to and from the FIFO module on each clock edge. An
external device synchronises to the CLKOUT output and it also has access to the output enable OE# input
to control data flow. An external device should drive output enable OE# low before pulling RD# line
down.
When bursts of data are to be read from the module RD# should be kept low. RXF# remains low when
there is still data to be read. Similarly when bursts of data are to be written to the module WR# should
be kept low. TXE# remains low when there is still space available for the data to be written.
