72V241S10PFG

FIFOs Memory Overview

The Renesas 72V241S10PFG is a synchronous FIFO memory device belonging to the 72V series. It provides a storage capacity of 36K bits, organized as 4K words by 9 bits. The component supports unidirectional data transfer with a maximum data rate of 100MHz and an access time of 6.5ns. It operates on a single supply voltage ranging from 4.5V to 5.5V, with a maximum supply current of 35mA. The device is housed in a 32-pin PLCC package (14x11.46mm) and is designed for surface mount installation. It functions within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C.

FIFOs Memory Feature Summary

• Supports independent read and write clocks for dual-clock operation or tied clocks for single-clock synchronization
• Features programmable status flags including Empty, Full, Half-Full, and configurable Almost-Empty/Almost-Full indicators
• Provides fixed low first-word data latency to minimize delay during retransmit operations
• Includes auto power-down functionality to reduce standby power consumption

FIFOs Memory Applications

• Data buffering for graphics processing systems
• Interprocessor communication interfaces
• Local area network data handling

FIFOs Memory Procurement Notes

Verify RoHS compliance status carefully, as specific variants within this family may not meet current environmental directives. Confirm package integrity upon receipt, as PLCC components require precise handling. Check datasheet revisions for any pinout or electrical characteristic updates. Ensure operating voltage aligns strictly with the 4.5V to 5.5V specification to prevent damage. Validate temperature ratings against your specific application environment requirements before final integration.

FIFOs Memory Selection Notes

Select this component when a 36K synchronous FIFO with 9-bit width is required for 5V logic systems. It is suitable for applications needing independent clock domains for read and write operations. Consider this part if fixed low latency is critical for data throughput. Compare against the 72V241L15PF for lower voltage options or different speed grades. Ensure the 32-pin PLCC package fits your PCB layout constraints.

FIFOs Memory Part Context

This part belongs to the IDT 72V2x1 SuperSync FIFO family, which offers functionally compatible alternatives to older 5V devices like the 72291. The 72V series eliminates the Frequency Select pin found in previous generations, simplifying design by fixing the latency period. It serves as a direct upgrade path for systems requiring reliable data buffering with standardized timing characteristics.

FIFOs Memory Replacement Considerations

The IDT72241L10JG is a verified substitute offering identical 36K(4K x 9) capacity, 100MHz speed, and 6.5ns access time. Both parts share the same functional architecture and pin compatibility within their respective package types.
