CY7C4231-15JC

FIFOs Memory Overview

The CY7C4231-15JC is a synchronous FIFO memory device manufactured by Cypress Semiconductor Corp. It features a storage capacity of 64K bits, organized as 8K words by 9 bits. The component supports a maximum data rate of 66.7MHz with an access time of 10ns. It operates on a single 5V power supply within the range of 4.5V to 5.5V and draws a maximum supply current of 35mA. The device utilizes a unidirectional bus architecture and is housed in a 32-pin PLCC package suitable for surface mount installation.

FIFOs Memory Feature Summary

• Synchronous operation with dedicated read and write clocks
• Programmable status flags for full and empty conditions
• Unidirectional data transfer capability
• Standard 5V CMOS technology

FIFOs Memory Applications

• Data buffering between asynchronous systems
• Level shifting between different voltage domains
• Clock domain crossing interfaces
• High-speed serial-to-parallel conversion buffers

FIFOs Memory Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix JC against official Cypress documentation to confirm the 32-PLCC package type and commercial temperature range. Confirm RoHS compliance status as older Cypress parts may not meet current environmental standards. Check for obsolescence or lifecycle status before procurement planning.

FIFOs Memory Selection Notes

Select this part when a 8K x 9 synchronous buffer is required with 10ns performance. Ensure the system design accommodates the 32-PLCC footprint. Compare against the CY7C42x1 series datasheet for pin compatibility with other capacities in the family.

FIFOs Memory Part Context

This component belongs to the CY7C42x1 family of low-power synchronous FIFOs from Cypress. These devices are designed for high-performance data buffering applications requiring precise timing control via separate read and write clocks.

FIFOs Memory Replacement Considerations

Check the CY7C4231V-15JC for potential low-voltage variants. Verify cross-compatibility with CY7C4241 or CY7C4261 if depth requirements change, ensuring pinout consistency.
