7204L12TPG

Overview

The Renesas Electronics Corporation 7204L12TPG is an asynchronous FIFO memory device featuring a storage capacity of 36K bits, organized as 4K words by 9 bits. It operates with a maximum clock frequency of 50 MHz and provides an access time of 12 ns. The component supports unidirectional data bus transfer and functions within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V. It is housed in a 28-PDIP package designed for through-hole mounting.

Feature Summary

• Asynchronous dual-port architecture enabling independent read and write clock domains
• Supports relay capability for signal buffering applications
• Configurable depth and width expansion options

Applications

• Data buffering between asynchronous logic systems
• Signal processing interface circuits
• Communication protocol conversion buffers

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'G' against official documentation to confirm compliance status, as datasheets may list RoHS details separately. Confirm lead-free specifications if required for assembly processes. Check current lifecycle status as discontinuation notices may affect long-term availability. Ensure the 28-PDIP package matches the target PCB footprint requirements before ordering.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 4K x 9 word asynchronous FIFO is required with 12 ns access speed. It is suitable for designs needing unidirectional data flow and relay functionality. Verify that the 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply voltage aligns with the system power rails. Consider the 28-PDIP package constraints for through-hole manufacturing processes.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 7204L series of high-speed asynchronous FIFOs manufactured by Renesas Electronics. The series typically offers various access times and organization sizes. The 7204L12TPG specifically denotes the 12 ns access time variant in a PDIP package. Related parts include different access speeds or package types within the same functional family.

Replacement Considerations

Official substitutes include IDT7204L12TP. Verify pin compatibility and electrical parameters before substitution. Cross-reference with other 7204L series variants if different access times are acceptable.
