Abstract
Example systems and related methods may relate to a synchronous first-in-first-out (FIFO) data buffer. The synchronous FIFO data buffer may include a counter. The counter may (i) receive a plurality of signals and (ii) output a count of total entries in the FIFO. The FIFO may further include a status generator that may (i) receive the plurality of signals and the count of total entries, and (ii) outputs a status signal. The FIFO may further include a selection generator that may (i) receive the count of total entries, the write signal, and the read signal, and (ii) output a data enable signal and a multiplexor selection signal. The FIFO may further include a scalable N×M flip-flop memory structure. N may be a number of entries in the memory structure and M may be a number of bits using flip-flops.
