Author_Institution :
Sharp Microelectron., Camas, WA, USA
Abstract :
This paper includes a short review of FIFO basics, followed by a more detailed discussion of flag-synchronization and metastability issues. Finally, the flag-synchronization features of the new Sharp LH540215/25 18-bit synchronous FIFOs are described, as a case in point
