Abstract
A configurable length first-in first-out (FIFO) memory includes a memory core for storing data, a write address counter connected to the memory core for counting locations for writing the data to be stored, and a read address counter connected to the memory core for counting the locations for reading the stored data. The read address counter includes a comparator for generating a synchronous reset for itself. A selector is connected to the comparator for selecting a user defined FIFO length, or a pre-programmed write address counter length.
