7241CPKFEBA01

Overview

The 7241CPKFEBA01 is a high-speed First-In/First-Out (FIFO) memory component manufactured by Flip Electronics. It features a 64 x 5 bit organization with an asynchronous and simultaneous read/write capability. The device utilizes a RAM-based internal structure to ensure fast fall-through time, making it suitable for bidirectional rate buffering and high-speed data communications. It supports expansion in bit width and cascading in word depth. The part operates within the industrial temperature range of –40°C to +85°C and is available in 20-pin plastic DIP and SOIC packages.

Feature Summary

• Asynchronous and simultaneous read and write operations
• RAM-based internal structure for fast fall-through time
• Expandable by bit width and cascadable by word depth
• Includes Half-Full and Almost-Full/Empty status flags

Applications

• High-speed data buffering applications
• Bidirectional and rate buffer applications between digital systems of varying data rates
• High-speed tape drivers
• Hard disk controllers
• Data communications controllers and graphics controllers

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific suffix 'CPKFEBA01' corresponds to the exact package type, temperature grade, and speed variant required for your design. Since Flip Electronics specializes in obsolescence management, confirm the manufacturing source and lot date code to ensure compatibility with legacy system requirements. Cross-reference the datasheet pinout and electrical characteristics against your current schematic to prevent integration errors during procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-speed FIFO with simultaneous read/write access is needed for buffering data between systems operating at different rates. Consider its expandability in bit width and cascadability in word depth if larger memory depths are required. Ensure the industrial temperature range and package options meet the environmental and physical constraints of the target application.
