8.4 External FIFO Application
Figure 89 shows how to connect the AAL1gator II to two 9-bit Integrated Device Technology
SyncFIFOs™. On the RATM interface, a D-type flip-flop is required on the /RATM_EMPTY
signal since the SyncFIFO /EF signal does not conform to UTOPIA timing. On the TATM
interface, the SyncFIFO must be able to accept four more data bytes after it asserts the /TATM_
FULL signal. This is accomplished by using the SyncFIFO /PAF flag and its full-7 bytes default
offset.
