7204L12SOG

Overview

The Renesas Electronics Corporation 7204L12SOG is an asynchronous FIFO memory device belonging to the 7204L series. It features a storage capacity of 36K bits, organized as 4K words by 9 bits. The component supports unidirectional data transfer with a maximum clock frequency of 50MHz and an access time of 12ns. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V and has a maximum power supply current of 80mA. The device is housed in a 28-SOIC package.

Feature Summary

• Asynchronous operation for independent read and write clock domains
• Unidirectional bus direction for dedicated data flow control
• Supports relay capability for signal buffering applications

Applications

• Data buffering between different clock domains
• Interface bridging in high-speed digital systems
• Temporary data storage in communication protocols

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix against official documentation, as 'SOG' may denote specific packaging or temperature variants. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level (MSL) requirements prior to assembly. Check for active production status or obsolescence notices from Renesas Electronics to ensure long-term availability.

Selection Notes

Select this component when unidirectional asynchronous buffering is required at 50MHz speeds. Ensure the system voltage aligns with the 4.5V to 5.5V operating range. Consider the 28-SOIC package dimensions for PCB layout compatibility. Verify that the 9-bit data width matches the application interface requirements without additional bit manipulation.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Renesas 7204L family of asynchronous FIFOs, designed for high-performance data buffering. The family typically includes variations in speed grades and package types, such as PLCC or SOIC formats. These devices are engineered for reliable operation in industrial and commercial environments requiring robust memory management solutions.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with IDT7204L12SOG8 for potential pin-compatible alternatives. Verify electrical specifications and package dimensions before substitution. Consult Renesas or distributor databases for current lifecycle status and approved replacement parts.
