DESCRIPTION:
The IDT72V51236/72V51246/72V51256 multi-queue flow-control de-
vices are single chip within which anywhere between 1 and 4 discrete FIFO
queues can be setup. All queues within the device have a common data input
bus, (write port) and a common data output bus, (read port). Data written into
the write port is directed to a respective queue via an internal de-multiplex
operation, addressed by the user. Data read from the read port is accessed
from a respective queue via an internal multiplex operation, addressed by
the user. Data writes and reads can be performed at high speeds up to
166MHz, with access times of 3.7ns. Data write and read operations are totally
independent of each other, a queue maybe selected on the write port and
a different queue on the read port or both ports may select the same queue
simultaneously.
The device provides Full flag and Output Valid flag status for the queue
selected for write and read operations respectively. Also a Programmable
Almost Full and Programmable Almost Empty flag for each queue is provided.
Two 4 bit programmable flag busses are available, providing status of all
queues, including queues not selected for write or read operations, these flag
busses provide an individual flag per queue.
Bus Matching is available on this device, either port can be 9 bits, 18 bits
or 36 bits wide provided that at least one port is 36 bits wide. When Bus
Matching is used the device ensures the logical transfer of data throughput
in a Little Endian manner.
A packet mode of operation is also provided when the device is configured
for 36 bit input and 36 bit output port sizes. The Packet mode provides the user
with a flag output indicating when at least one (or more) packets of data within a
queue is available for reading. The Packet Ready provides the user with a means
by which to mark the start and end of packets of data being passed through the
queues. The multi-queue device then provides the user with an internally
generated packet ready status per queue.
The user has full flexibility configuring queues within the device, being able
to program the total number of queues between 1 and 4, the individual queue
depths being independent of each other. The programmable flag positions are
also user programmable. All programming is done via a dedicated serial port.
If the user does not wish to program the multi-queue device, a default option is
available that configures the device in a predetermined manner.
Both Master Reset and Partial Reset pins are provided on this device. A Master
Reset latches in all configuration setup pins and must be performed before
programming of the device can take place. A Partial Reset will reset the read and
write pointers of an individual queue, provided that the queue is selected on both
the write port and read port at the time of partial reset.
A JTAG test port is provided, here the multi-queue flow-control device has a
fully functional Boundary Scan feature, compliant with IEEE 1149.1 Standard
Test Access Port and Boundary Scan Architecture.
See Figure 1, Multi-Queue Flow-Control Device Block Diagram for an outline
of the functional blocks within the device.

IDT72V51236/72V51246/72V51256 3.3V, MULTI-QUEUE FLOW-CONTROL DEVICES
(4 QUEUES) 36 BIT WIDE CONFIGURATION 589,824, 1,179,648 and 2,359,296 bits
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
MULTI-QUEUE STRUCTURE
The IDT multi-queue flow-control device has a single data input port and
single data output port with up to 4 FIFO queues in parallel buffering between
the two ports. The user can setup between 1 and 4 Queues within the device.
These queues can be configured to utilize the total available memory, providing
the user with full flexibility and ability to configure the queues to be various depths,
independent of one another.
MEMORY ORGANIZATION/ ALLOCATION
The memory is organized into what is known as “blocks”, each block being
256 x36 bits. When the user is configuring the number of queues and individual
queue sizes the user must allocate the memory to respective queues, in units
of blocks, that is, a single queue can be made up from 0 to m blocks, where m
is the total number of blocks available within a device. Also the total size of any
given queue must be in increments of 256 x36. For the IDT72V51236/
72V51246 and IDT72V51256 the Total Available Memory is 64, 128 and 256
blocks respectively (a block being 256 x36). Queues can be built from these
blocks to make any size queue desired and any number of queues desired.
BUS WIDTHS
The input port is common to all queues within the device, as is the output port.
The device provides the user with Bus Matching options such that the input port
and output port can be either x9, x18 or x36 bits wide provided that at least one
of the ports is x36 bits wide, the read and write port widths being set
independently of one another. Because the ports are common to all queues the
width of the queues is not individually set, so that the input width of all queues
are equal and the output width of all queues are equal.
WRITING TO & READING FROM THE MULTI-QUEUE
Data being written into the device via the input port is directed to a discrete
queue via the write queue select address inputs. Conversely, data being read
from the device read port is read from a queue selected via the read queue select
address inputs. Data can be simultaneously written into and read from the same
queue or different queues. Once a queue is selected for data writes or reads,
the writing and reading operation is performed in the same manner as
conventional IDT synchronous FIFO, utilizing clocks and enables, there is a
single clock and enable per port. When a specific queue is addressed on the
write port, data placed on the data inputs is written to that queue sequentially
based on the rising edge of a write clock provided setup and hold times are met.
Conversely, data is read on to the output port after an access time from a rising
edge on a read clock.
The operation of the write port is comparable to the function of a conventional
FIFO operating in standard IDT mode. Write operations can be performed on
the write port provided that the queue currently selected is not full, a full flag output
provides status of the selected queue. The operation of the read port is
comparable to the function of a conventional FIFO operating in FWFT mode.
When a queue is selected on the output port, the next word in that queue will
automatically fall through to the output register. All subsequent words from that
queue require an enabled read cycle. Data cannot be read from a selected
queue if that queue is empty, the read port provides an Output Valid flag indicating
when data read out is valid. If the user switches to a queue that is empty, the
last word from the previous queue will remain on the output register.
As mentioned, the write port has a full flag, providing full status of the selected
queue. Along with the full flag a dedicated almost full flag is provided, this almost
full flag is similar to the almost full flag of a conventional IDT FIFO. The device
provides a user programmable almost full flag for all 4 queues and when a
respective queue is selected on the write port, the almost full flag provides status
for that queue. Conversely, the read port has an output valid flag, providing
status of the data being read from the queue selected on the read port. As well
as the output valid flag the device provides a dedicated almost empty flag. This
almost empty flag is similar to the almost empty flag of a conventional IDT FIFO.
The device provides a user programmable almost empty flag for all 4 queues
and when a respective queue is selected on the read port, the almost empty flag
provides status for that queue.
PROGRAMMABLE FLAG BUSSES
In addition to these dedicated flags, full & almost full on the write port and output
valid & almost empty on the read port, there are two flag status busses. An almost
full flag status bus is provided, this bus is 4 bits wide. Also, an almost empty flag
status bus is provided, again this bus is 4 bits wide. The purpose of these flag
busses is to provide the user with a means by which to monitor the data levels
within queues that may not be selected on the write or read port. As mentioned,
the device provides almost full and almost empty registers (programmable by
the user) for each of the 4 queues in the device.
The 4 bit PAEn and 4 bit PAFn busses provide a discrete status of the Almost
Empty and Almost Full conditions of all 4 queue's. If the device is programmed
for less than 4 queue's, then there will be a corresponding number of active
outputs on the PAEn and PAFn busses.
The flag busses can provide a continuous status of all queues. If devices are
connected in expansion mode the individual flag busses can be left in a discrete
form, providing constant status of all queues, or the busses of individual devices
can be connected together to produce a single bus of 4 bits. The device can
then operate in a "Polled" or "Direct" mode.
When operating in polled mode the flag bus provides status of each device
sequentially, that is, on each rising edge of a clock the flag bus is updated to show
the status of each device in order. The rising edge of the write clock will update
the Almost Full bus and a rising edge on the read clock will update the Almost
Empty bus.
When operating in direct mode the device driving the flag bus is selected by
the user. The user addresses the device that will take control of a respective
flag bus, these PAFn and PAEn flag busses operating independently of one
another. Addressing of the Almost Full flag bus is done via the write port and
addressing of the Almost Empty flag bus is done via the read port.
PACKET MODE
The multi-queue flow-control device also offers a “Packet Mode” operation.
Packet Mode is user selectable and requires the device to be configured with
both write and read ports as 36 bits wide. In packet mode, users can define
the length of packets or frame by using the two most significant bits of the 36-
bit word. Bit 34 is used to mark the Start of Packet (SOP) and bit 35 is used to
mark the End of Packet (EOP) as shown in Table 5). When writing data into
a given queue, the first word being written is marked, by the user setting bit 34
as the “Start of Packet” (SOP) and the last word written is marked as the “End
of Packet” (EOP) with all words written between the Start of Packet (SOP)
marker (bit 34) and the End of packet (EOP) packet marker (bit 35) constituting
the entire packet. A packet can be any length the user desires, up to the total
available memory in the multi-queue flow-control device. The device monitors
the SOP (bit 34) and looks for the word that contains the EOP (bit 35). The read
port is supplied with an additional status flag, “Packet Ready”. The Packet
Ready (PR) flag in conjunction with Output Valid (OV) indicates when at least
one packet is available to read. When in packet mode the almost empty flag
status, provides packet ready flag status for individual queues.

EXPANSION
Expansion of multi-queue devices is also possible, up to 8 devices can be
connected in a parallel fashion providing the possibility of both depth expansion
or queue expansion. Depth Expansion means expanding the depths of
individual queues. Queue expansion means increasing the total number of
queues available. Depth expansion is possible by virtue of the fact that more
memory blocks within a multi-queue device can be allocated to increase the
depth of a queue. For example, depth expansion of 8 devices provides the
possibility of 8 queues of 64K x36 deep, each queue being setup within a single
device utilizing all memory blocks available to produce a single queue. This is
the deepest queue that can setup within a device.
For queue expansion of the 4 queue device, a maximum number of 32 (8
x 4) queues may be setup, each queue being 2K x36 deep, if less queues are
setup, then more memory blocks will be available to increase queue depths if
desired. When connecting multi-queue devices in expansion mode all respec-
tive input pins (data & control) and output pins (data & flags), should be
“connected” together between individual devices.

(4 QUEUES) 36 BIT WIDE CONFIGURATION 589,824, 1,179,648 and 2,359,296 bits
BM Bus Matching LVTTL This pin is setup before Master Reset and must not toggle during any device operation. This pin is used
INPUT along with IW and OW to setup the multi-queue flow-control device bus width. Please refer to Table 3
for details.
D[35:0] Data Input Bus LVTTL These are the 36 data input pins. Data is written into the device via these input pins on the rising edge
Din INPUT of WCLK provided that WEN is LOW. Note, that in Packet mode D32-D35 may be used as packet
markers, please see packet ready functional discussion for more detail. Due to bus matching not all inputs
may be used, any unused inputs should be tied LOW.
DF(1) Default Flag LVTTL If the user requires default programming of the multi-queue device, this pin must be setup before Master
INPUT Reset and must not toggle during any device operation. The state of this input at master reset determines
the value of the PAE/PAF flag offsets. If DF is LOW the value is 8, if DF is HIGH the value is 128.
DFM(1) Default Mode LVTTL The multi-queue device requires programming after master reset. The user can do this serially via the
INPUT serial port, or the user can use the default method. If DFM is LOW at master reset then serial mode will be
selected, if HIGH then default mode is selected.
ESTR PAEn Flag Bus LVTTL If direct operation of the PAEn bus has been selected, the ESTR input is used in conjunction with RCLK
Strobe INPUT and the RDADD bus to select a device for its queues to be placed on to the PAEn bus outputs. A device
addressed via the RDADD bus is selected on the rising edge of RCLK provided that ESTR is HIGH. If
Polled operations has been selected, ESTR should be tied inactive, LOW. Note, that a PAEn flag bus
selection cannot be made, (ESTR must NOT go active) until programming of the part has been completed
and SENO has gone LOW.
ESYNC PAEn Bus Sync LVTTL ESYNC is an output from the multi-queue device that provides a synchronizing pulse for the PAEn bus
OUTPUT during Polled operation of the PAEn bus. During Polled operation each devices queue status flags are
loaded on to the PAEn bus outputs sequentially based on RCLK. The first RCLK rising edge loads device 1
on to PAEn, the second RCLK rising edge loads device 2 and so on. During the RCLK cycle that a selected
device is placed on to the PAEn bus, the ESYNC output will be HIGH.
EXI PAEn/PRn Bus LVTTL The EXI input is used when multi-queue devices are connected in expansion mode and Polled PAEn/
Expansion In INPUT PRn bus operation has been selected . EXI of device ‘N’ connects directly to EXO of device ‘N-1’. The
EXI receives a token from the previous device in a chain. In single device mode the EXI input must be
tied LOW if the PAEn/PRn bus is operated in direct mode. If the PAEn/PRn bus is operated in polled mode
the EXI input must be connected to the EXO output of the same device. In expansion mode the EXI of
the first device should be tied LOW, when direct mode is selected.
EXO PAEn/PRn Bus LVTTL EXO is an output that is used when multi-queue devices are connected in expansion mode and Polled
Expansion Out OUTPUT PAEn/PRn bus operation has been selected . EXO of device ‘N’ connects directly to EXI of device ‘N+1’.
This pin pulses HIGH when device N places its PAE status on to the PAEn/PRn bus with respect to RCLK.
This pulse (token) is then passed on to the next device in the chain ‘N+1’ and on the next RCLK rising
edge the first quadrant of device N+1 will be loaded on to the PAEn/PRn bus. This continues through the
chain and EXO of the last device is then looped back to EXI of the first device. The ESYNC output of each
device in the chain provides synchronization to the user of this looping event.
FF Full Flag LVTTL This pin provides the full flag output for the active queue, that is, the queue selected on the input port
OUTPUT for write operations, (selected via WCLK, WRADD bus and WADEN). On the WCLK cycle after a queue
selection, this flag will show the status of the newly selected queue. Data can be written to this queue on
the next cycle provided FF is HIGH. This flag has High-Impedance capability, this is important during
expansion of devices, when the FF flag output of up to 8 devices may be connected together on a common
line. The device with a queue selected takes control of the FF bus, all other devices place their FF output
into High-Impedance. When a queue selection is made on the write port this output will switch from
High-Impedance control on the next WCLK cycle. This flag is synchronized to WCLK.
FM(1) Flag Mode LVTTL This pin is setup before a master reset and must not toggle during any device operation. The state of the
INPUT FM pin during Master Reset will determine whether the PAFn and PAEn flag busses operate in either
Polled or Direct mode. If this pin is HIGH the mode is Polled, if LOW then it will be Direct.
FSTR PAFn Flag Bus LVTTL If direct operation of the PAFn bus has been selected, the FSTR input is used in conjunction with WCLK
Strobe INPUT and the WRADD bus to select a device for its queues to be placed on to the PAFn bus outputs. A device
addressed via the WRADD bus is selected on the rising edge of WCLK provided that FSTR is HIGH. If

PIN DESCRIPTIONS (CONTINUED)
FSTR PAFn Flag Bus LVTTL Polled operations has been selected, FSTR should be tied inactive, LOW. Note, that a PAFn flag bus
(Continued) Strobe INPUT selection cannot be made, (FSTR must NOT go active) until programming of the part has been completed
and SENO has gone LOW.
FSYNC PAFn Bus Sync LVTTL FSYNC is an output from the multi-queue device that provides a synchronizing pulse for the PAFn bus
OUTPUT during Polled operation of the PAFn bus. During Polled operation each quadrant of queue status flags
is loaded on to the PAFn bus outputs sequentially based on WCLK. The first WCLK rising edge loads
device 1 on to the PAFn bus outputs, the second WCLK rising edge loads device 2 and so on. During
the WCLKcycle that a selected device is placed on to the PAFn bus, the FSYNC output will be HIGH.
FXI PAFn Bus LVTTL The FXI input is used when multi-queue devices are connected in expansion mode and Polled PAFn
Expansion In INPUT bus operation has been selected. FXI of device ‘N’ connects directly to FXO of device ‘N-1’. The FXI
receives a token from the previous device in a chain. In single device mode the FXI input must be tied
LOW if the PAFn bus is operated in direct mode. If the PAFn bus is operated in polled mode the FXI input
must be connected to the FXO output of the same device. In expansion mode the FXI of the first device
should be tied LOW, when direct mode is selected.
FXO PAFn Bus LVTTL FXO is an output that is used when multi-queue devices are connected in expansion mode and Polled
Expansion Out OUTPUT PAFn bus operation has been selected . FXO of device ‘N’ connects directly to FXI of device ‘N+1’. This
pin pulses HIGH when device N places its PAF status on to the PAFn bus with respect to WCLK. This pulse
(token) is then passed on to the next device in the chain ‘N+1’ and on the next WCLK rising edge the first
quadrant of device N+1 will be loaded on to the PAFn bus. This continues through the chain and FXO
of the last device is then looped back to FXI of the first device. The FSYNC output of each device in the
chain provides synchronization to the user of this looping event.
ID[2:0](1) Device ID Pins LVTTL For the 4Q multi-queue device the WRADD address bus is 5 bits and RDADD address bus is 6 bits wide.
INPUT When a queue selection takes place the 3 MSb’s of this address bus are used to address the specific device
(the LSb’s are used to address the queue within that device). During write/read operations the 3 MSb’s
of the address are compared to the device ID pins. The first device in a chain of Multi-Queue’s (connected
in expansion mode), may be setup as ‘000’, the second as ‘001’ and so on through to device 8 which is
‘111’, however the ID does not have to match the device order. In single device mode these pins should
be setup as ‘000’ and the 3 MSb’s of the WRADD and RDADD address busses should be tied LOW. The
ID[2:0] inputs setup a respective devices ID during master reset. These ID pins must not toggle during
any device operation. Note, the device selected as the ‘Master’ does not have to have the ID of ‘000’.
IW(1) Input Width LVTTL This pin is used in conjunction with OW and BM to setup the input and output bus widths to be a combination
INPUT of x9, x18 or x36, (providing that one port is x36).
MAST(1) Master Device LVTTL The state of this input at Master Reset determines whether a given device (within a chain of devices), is the
INPUT Master device or a Slave. If this pin is HIGH, the device is the master, if it is LOW then it is a Slave. The master
device is the first to take control of all outputs after a master reset, all slave devices go to High-Impedance,
preventing bus contention. If a multi-queue device is being used in single device mode, this pin must
be set HIGH.
MRS Master Reset LVTTL A master reset is performed by taking MRS from HIGH to LOW, to HIGH. Device programming is required
INPUT after master reset.
OE Output Enable LVTTL The Output enable signal is an Asynchronous signal used to provide three-state control of the multi-queue
INPUT data output bus, Qout. If a device has been configured as a “Master” device, the Qout data outputs will
be in a Low Impedance condition if the OE input is LOW. If OE is HIGH then the Qout data outputs will be
in High Impedance. If a device is configured a “Slave” device, then the Qout data outputs will always be
in High Impedance until that device has been selected on the Read Port, at which point OE provides three-
state of that respective device.
OV Output Valid Flag LVTTL This output flag provides output valid status for the data word present on the multi-queue flow-control device
OUTPUT data output port, Qout. This flag is therefore, 2-stage delayed to match the data output path delay. That
is, there is a 2 RCLK cycle delay from the time a given queue is selected for reads, to the time the OV flag
represents the data in that respective queue. When a selected queue on the read port is read to empty,
the OV flag will go HIGH, indicating that data on the output bus is not valid. The OV flag also has High-
Impedance capability, required when multiple devices are used and the OV flags are tied together.

OW(1) Output Width LVTTL This pin is setup during Master Reset and must not toggle during any device operation. This pin is used
INPUT in conjunction with IW and BM to setup the data input and output bus widths to be a combination of x9,
x18 or x36, (providing that one port is x36).
PAE Programmable LVTTL This pin provides the Almost-Empty flag status for the queue that has been selected on the output port
Almost-Empty Flag OUTPUT for read operations, (selected via RCLK, RDADD and RADEN). This pin is LOW when the selected
queue is almost-empty. This flag output may be duplicated on one of the PAEn bus lines. This flag is
synchronized to RCLK.
PAEn/PRn Programmable LVTTL On the 4Q device the PAEn/ PRn bus is 4 bits wide. During a Master Reset this bus is setup for either
Almost-Empty Flag OUTPUT Almost Empty mode or Packet mode. This output bus provides PAE/ PRn status of all 4 queues, within
Bus/Packet Ready a selected device. During Queue read/write operations these outputs provide programmable empty
Flag Bus flag status or packet ready status, in either director polled mode. The mode of flag operation is determined
during master reset via the state of the FM input. This flag bus is capable of High-Impedance state, this
is important during expansion of multi-queue devices. During direct operation the PAEn/ PRn bus is
updated to show the PAE/PR status of queues within a selected device. Selection is made using RCLK,
ESTR and RDADD. During Polled operation the PAEn/ PRn bus is loaded with the PAE/ PRn status
of multi-queue flow-control devices sequentially based on the rising edge of RCLK. PAE or PR operation
is determined by the state of PKT during master reset.
PAF Programmable LVTTL This pin provides the Almost-Full flag status for the queue that has been selected on the input port for
Almost-Full Flag OUTPUT write operations, (selected via WCLK, WRADD and WADEN). This pin is LOW when the selected queue
is almost-full. This flag output may be duplicated on one of the PAFn bus lines. This flag is synchronized
to WCLK.
PAFn Programmable LVTTL On the 4Q device the PAFn bus is 4 bits wide. This output bus provides PAF status of all 4 queues, within
Almost-Full Flag Bus OUTPUT a selected device. During Queue read/write operations these outputs provide programmable full flag
status, in either direct or polled mode. The mode of flag operation is determined during master reset
via the state of the FM input. This flag bus is capable of High-Impedance state, this is important during
expansion of multi-queue devices. During direct operation the PAFn bus is updated to show the PAF
status of a queues within a selected device. Selection is made using WCLK, FSTR, WRADD and WADEN.
During Polled operation the PAFn bus is loaded with the PAF status of multi-queue flow-control devices
sequentially based on the rising edge of WCLK.
PKT(1) Packet Mode LVTTL The state of this pin during a Master Reset will determine whether the part is operating in Packet mode
INPUT providing both a Packet Ready (PR) output and a Programmable Almost Empty (PAE) discrete output,
or standard mode, providing a (PAE) output only. If this pin is HIGH during Master Reset the part will
operate in packet mode, if it is LOW then almost empty mode. If packet mode has been selected the read
port flag bus becomes packet ready flag bus, PRn and the discrete packet ready flag, PR is functional.
If almost empty operation has been selected then the flag bus provides almost empty status, PAEn and
the discrete almost empty flag, PAE is functional, the PR flag is inactive and should not be connected. Packet
Ready utilizes user marked locations to identify start and end of packets being written into the device.
Packet Mode can only be selected if both the input port width and output port width are 36 bits.
PR Packet Ready Flag LVTTL If packet mode has been selected this flag output provides Packet Ready status of the queue selected
for read operations. During a master reset the state of the PKT input determines whether Packet mode
of operation will be used. If Packet mode is selected, then the condition of the PR flag and OV signal are
asserted indicates a packet is ready for reading. The user must mark the start of a packet and the end
of a packet when writing data into a queue. Using these Start Of Packet (SOP) and End Of Packet
(EOP) markers, the multi-queue device sets PR LOW if one or more “complete” packets are available
in the queue. A complete packet(s) must be written before the user is allowed to switch queues.
PRS Partial Reset LVTTL A Partial Reset can be performed on a single queue selected within the multi-queue device. Before a Partial
INPUT Reset can be performed on a queue, that queue must be selected on both the write port and read port
2 clock cycles before the reset is performed. A Partial Reset is then performed by taking PRS LOW for
one WCLK cycle and one RCLK cycle. The Partial Reset will only reset the read and write pointers to
the first memory location, none of the devices configuration will be changed.

Q[35:0] Data Output Bus LVTTL These are the 36 data output pins. Data is read out of the device via these output pins on the rising edge
Qout OUTPUT of RCLK provided that REN is LOW, OE is LOW and the queue is selected. Note, that in Packet mode
Q32-Q35 may be used as packet markers, please see packet ready functional discussion for more detail.
Due to bus matching not all outputs may be used, any unused outputs should not be connected.
RADEN Read Address LVTTL The RADEN input is used in conjunction with RCLK and the RDADD address bus to select a queue to
Enable INPUT be read from. A queue addressed via the RDADD bus is selected on the rising edge of RCLK provided
that RADEN is HIGH. RADEN should be asserted (HIGH) only during a queue change cycle(s). RADEN
should not be permanently tied HIGH. RADEN cannot be HIGH for the same RCLK cycle as ESTR. Note,
that a read queue selection cannot be made, (RADEN must NOT go active) until programming of the part
has been completed and SENO has gone LOW.
RCLK Read Clock LVTTL When enabled by REN, the rising edge of RCLK reads data from the selected queue via the output
INPUT bus Qout. The queue to be read is selected via the RDADD address bus and a rising edge of RCLK
while RADEN is HIGH. A rising edge of RCLK in conjunction with ESTR and RDADD will also select the
device to be placed on the PAEn/PRn bus during direct flag operation. During polled flag operation the
PAEn/PRn bus is cycled with respect to RCLK and the ESYNC signal is synchronized to RCLK. The PAE,
PR and OV outputs are all synchronized to RCLK. During device expansion the EXO and EXI signals
are based on RCLK. RCLK must be continuous and free-running.
RDADD Read Address Bus LVTTL For the 4Q device the RDADD bus is 6 bits. The RDADD bus is a dual purpose address bus. The first
[5:0] INPUT function of RDADD is to select a queue to be read from. The least significant 2 bits of the bus, RDADD[1:0]
are used to address 1 of 4 possible queues within a multi-queue device. Address pin, RDADD[2] provides
the user with a Null-Q address. If the user does not wish to address one of the 4 queues, a Null-Q can
be addressed using this pin. The Null-Q operation is discussed in more detail later. The most significant
3 bits, RDADD[5:3] are used to select 1 of 8 possible multi-queue devices that may be connected in
expansion mode. These 3 MSb’s will address a device with the matching ID code. The address present
on the RDADD bus will be selected on a rising edge of RCLK provided that RADEN is HIGH, (note, that
data can be placed on to the Qout bus, read from the previously selected queue on this RCLK edge). On
the next rising RCLK edge after a read queue select, a data word from the previous queue will be placed
onto the outputs, Qout, regardless of the REN input. Two RCLK rising edges after read queue select, data
will be placed on to the Qout outputs from the newly selected queue, regardless of REN due to the first
word fall through effect.
The second function of the RDADD bus is to select the device of queues to be loaded on to the PAEn/
PRn bus during strobed flag mode. The most significant 3 bits, RDADD[5:3] are again used to select 1
of 8 possible multi-queue devices that may be connected in expansion mode. Address bits RDADD[2:0]
are don’t care during device selection. The device address present on the RDADD bus will be selected
on the rising edge of RCLK provided that ESTR is HIGH, (note, that data can be placed on to the Qout
bus, read from the previously selected Queue on this RCLK edge). Please refer to Table 2 for details
on RDADD bus.
REN Read Enable LVTTL The REN input enables read operations from a selected queue based on a rising edge of RCLK. A queue
INPUT to be read from can be selected via RCLK, RADEN and the RDADD address bus regardless of the state
of REN. Data from a newly selected queue will be available on the Qout output bus on the second RCLK
cycle after queue selection regardless of REN due to the FWFT operation. A read enable is not required
to cycle the PAEn/PRn bus (in polled mode) or to select the device , (in direct mode).
SCLK Serial Clock LVTTL If serial programming of the multi-queue device has been selected during master reset, the SCLK input
INPUT clocks the serial data through the multi-queue device. Data setup on the SI input is loaded into the device
on the rising edge of SCLK provided that SENI is enabled, LOW. When expansion of devices is performed
the SCLK of all devices should be connected to the same source.
SENI Serial Input Enable LVTTL During serial programming of a multi-queue device, data loaded onto the SI input will be clocked into the
INPUT part (via a rising edge of SCLK), provided the SENI input of that device is LOW. If multiple devices are
cascaded, the SENI input should be connected to the SENO output of the previous device. So when serial
loading of a given device is complete, its SENO output goes LOW, allowing the next device in the chain
to be programmed (SENO will follow SENI of a given device once that device is programmed). The SENI
input of the master device (or single device), should be controlled by the user.

PIN DESCRIPTIONS (CONTINUED)
Symbol Name I/O TYPE Description
SENO Serial Output Enable LVTTL This output is used to indicate that serial programming or default programming of the multi-queue device
OUTPUT has been completed. SENO follows SENI once programming of a device is complete. Therefore, SENO
will go LOW after programming provided SENI is LOW, once SENI is taken HIGH again, SENO will also
go HIGH. When the SENO output goes LOW, the device is ready to begin normal read/write operations.
If multiple devices are cascaded and serial programming of the devices will be used, the SENO output
should be connected to the SENI input of the next device in the chain. When serial programming of the
first device is complete, SENO will go LOW, thereby taking the SENI input of the next device LOW and
so on throughout the chain. When a given device in the chain is fully programmed the SENO output
essentially follows the SENI input. The user should monitor the SENO output of the final device in the chain.
When this output goes LOW, serial loading of all devices has been completed.
SI Serial In LVTTL During serial programming this pin is loaded with the serial data that will configure the multi-queue
INPUT devices. Data present on SI will be loaded on a rising edge of SCLK provided that SENI is LOW. In
expansion mode the serial data input is loaded into the first device in a chain. When that device is loaded
and its SENO has gone LOW, the data present on SI will be directly output to the SO output. The SO pin
of the first device connects to the SI pin of the second and so on. The multi-queue device setup registers
are shift registers.
SO Serial Out LVTTL This output is used in expansion mode and allows serial data to be passed through devices in the chain
OUTPUT to complete programming of all devices. The SI of a device connects to SO of the previous device in the
chain. The SO of the final device in a chain should not be connected.
TCK(2) JTAG Clock LVTTL Clock input for JTAG function. One of four terminals required by IEEE Standard 1149.1-1990. Test
INPUT operations of the device are synchronous to TCK. Data from TMS and TDI are sampled on the rising edge
of TCK and outputs change on the falling edge of TCK. If the JTAG function is not used this signal needs
to be tied to GND.
TDI(2) JTAG Test Data LVTTL One of four terminals required by IEEE Standard 1149.1-1990. During the JTAG boundary scan
Input INPUT operation,test data serially loaded via the TDI on the rising edge of TCK to either the Instruction Register,
ID Register and Bypass Register. An internal pull-up resistor forces TDI HIGH if left unconnected.
TDO(2) JTAG Test Data LVTTL One of four terminals required by IEEE Standard 1149.1-1990. During the JTAG boundary scan
Output OUTPUT operation, test data serially loaded output via the TDO on the falling edge of TCK from either the Instruction
Register, ID Register and Bypass Register. This output is high impedance except when shifting, while in
SHIFT-DR and SHIFT-IR controller states.
TMS(2) JTAG Mode Select LVTTL TMS is a serial input pin. One of four terminals required by IEEE Standard 1149.1-1990. TMS directs the
INPUT device through its TAP controller states. An internal pull-up resistor forces TMS HIGH if left unconnected.
TRST(2) JTAG Reset LVTTL TRST is an asynchronous reset pin for the JTAG controller. The JTAG TAP controller does not automatically
INPUT reset upon power-up, thus it must be reset by either this signal or by setting TMS= HIGH for five TCK cycles.
If the TAP controller is not properly reset then the outputs will always be in high-impedance. If the JTAG
function is used but the user does not want to use TRST, then TRST can be tied with MRS to ensure
proper queue operation. If the JTAG function is not used then this signal needs to be tied to GND. An
internal pull-up resistor forces TRST HIGH if left unconnected.
WADEN Write Address Enable LVTTL The WADEN input is used in conjunction with WCLK and the WRADD address bus to select a queue to
INPUT be written in to. A queue addressed via the WRADD bus is selected on the rising edge of WCLK provided
that WADEN is HIGH. WADEN should be asserted (HIGH) only during a queue change cycle(s). WADEN
should not be permanently tied HIGH. WADEN cannot be HIGH for the same WCLK cycle as FSTR. Note,
that a write queue selection cannot be made, (WADEN must NOT go active) until programming of the
part has been completed and SENO has gone LOW.
WCLK Write Clock LVTTL When enabled by WEN, the rising edge of WCLK writes data into the selected queue via the input bus,
INPUT Din. The queue to be written to is selected via the WRADD address bus and a rising edge of WCLK while
WADEN is HIGH. A rising edge of WCLK in conjunction with FSTR and WRADD will also select the device
to be placed on the PAFn bus during direct flag operation. During polled flag operation the PAFn bus is
cycled with respect to WCLK and the FSYNC signal is synchronized to WCLK. The PAFn, PAF and FF
outputs are all synchronized to WCLK. During device expansion the FXO and FXI signals are based on
WCLK. The WCLK must be continuous and free-running.

WEN Write Enable LVTTL The WEN input enables write operations to a selected queue based on a rising edge of WCLK.
INPUT A queue to be written to can be selected via WCLK, WADEN and the WRADD address bus regardless
of the state of WEN. Data present on Din can be written to a newly selected queue on the second WCLK
cycle after queue selection provided that WEN is LOW. A write enable is not required to cycle the PAFn
bus (in polled mode) or to select the device , (in direct mode).
WRADD Write Address Bus LVTTL For the 4Q device the WRADD bus is 5 bits. The WRADD bus is a dual purpose address bus. The first
[4:0] INPUT function of WRADD is to select a queue to be written to. The least significant 2 bits of the bus, WRADD[1:0]
are used to address 1 of 4 possible queues within a multi-queue device. The most significant 3bits,
WRADD[4:2] are used to select 1 of 8 possible multi-queue devices that may be connected in expansion

WRADD bus will be selected on a rising edge of WCLK provided that WADEN is HIGH, (note, that data
present on the Din bus can be written into the previously selected queue on this WCLK edge and on the
next rising WCLK also, providing that WEN is LOW). Two WCLK rising edges after write queue select,
data can be written into the newly selected queue.
The second function of the WRADD bus is to select the device of queues to be loaded on to the PAFn

are don’t care during device selection. The device address present on the WRADD bus will be selected
on the rising edge of WCLK provided that FSTR is HIGH, (note, that data can be written into the previously
selected queue on this WCLK edge). Please refer to Table 1 for details on the WRADD bus.

(4 QUEUES) 36 BIT WIDE CONFIGURATION 589,824, 1,179,648 and 2,359,296 bits
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
MASTER RESET
A Master Reset is performed by toggling the MRS input from HIGH to LOW
to HIGH. During a master reset all internal multi-queue device setup and control
registers are initialized and require programming either serially by the user via
the serial port, or using the default settings. During a master reset the state of
the following inputs determine the functionality of the part, these pins should be
held HIGH or LOW.
PKT – Packet Mode
FM – Flag bus Mode
IW, OW, BM – Bus Matching options
MAST – Master Device
ID0, 1, 2 – Device ID
DFM – Programming mode, serial or default
DF – Offset value for PAE and PAF
Once a master reset has taken place, the device must be programmed either
serially or via the default method before any read/write operations can begin.
See Figure 4, Master Reset for relevant timing.
PARTIAL RESET
A Partial Reset is a means by which the user can reset both the read and write
pointers of a single queue that has been setup within a multi-queue device.
Before a partial reset can take place on a queue, the respective queue must be
selected on both the read port and write port a minimum of 2 RCLK and 2 WCLK
cycles before the PRS goes LOW. The partial reset is then performed by toggling
the PRS input from HIGH to LOW to HIGH, maintaining the LOW state for at least
one WCLK and one RCLK cycle. Once a partial reset has taken place a minimum
of 3 WCLK and 3 RCLK cycles must occur before enabled writes or reads can
occur.
A Partial Reset only resets the read and write pointers of a given queue, a
partial reset will not effect the overall configuration and setup of the multi-queue
device and its queues.
See Figure 5, Partial Reset for relevant timing.
SERIAL PROGRAMMING
The multi-queue flow-control device is a fully programmable device, provid-
ing the user with flexibility in how queues are configured in terms of the number
of queues, depth of each queue and position of the PAF/PAE flags within
respective queues. All user programming is done via the serial port after a master
reset has taken place. Internally the multi-queue device has setup registers
which must be serially loaded, these registers contain values for every queue
within the device, such as the depth and PAE/PAF offset values. The
IDT72V51236/72V51246/72V51256 devices are capable of up to 4 queues
and therefore contain 4 sets of registers for the setup of each queue.
During a Master Reset if the DFM (Default Mode) input is LOW, then the device
will require serial programming by the user. It is recommended that the user
utilize a ‘C’ program provided by IDT, this program will prompt the user for all
information regarding the multi-queue setup. The program will then generate
a serial bit stream which should be serially loaded into the device via the serial
port. For the IDT72V51236/72V51246/72V51256 devices the serial program-
ming requires a total number of serially loaded bits per device, (SCLK cycles
with SENI enabled), calculated by: 19+(Qx72) where Q is the number of queues
the user wishes to setup within the device. Please refer to the separate
Application Note, AN-303 for recommended control of the serial programming
port.
Once the master reset is complete and MRS is HIGH, the device can be
serially loaded. Data present on the SI (serial in), input is loaded into the serial
port on a rising edge of SCLK (serial clock), provided that SENI (serial in
enable), is LOW. Once serial programming of the device has been successfully
completed the device will indicate this via the SENO (serial output enable) going
active, LOW. Upon detection of completion of programming, the user should
cease all programming and take SENI inactive, HIGH. Note, SENO follows SENI
once programming of a device is complete. Therefore, SENO will go LOW after
programming provided SENI is LOW, once SENI is taken HIGH again, SENO
will also go HIGH. The operation of the SO output is similar, when programming
of a given device is complete, the SO output will follow the SI input.
If devices are being used in expansion mode the serial ports of devices should
be cascaded. The user can load all devices via the serial input port control pins,
SI & SENI, of the first device in the chain. Again, the user may utilize the ‘C’
program to generate the serial bit stream, the program prompting the user for
the number of devices to be programmed. The SENO and SO (serial out) of
the first device should be connected to the SENI and SI inputs of the second
device respectively and so on, with the SENO & SO outputs connecting to the
SENI & SI inputs of all devices through the chain. All devices in the chain should
be connected to a common SCLK. The serial output port of the final device should
be monitored by the user. When SENO of the final device goes LOW, this
indicates that serial programming of all devices has been successfully com-
pleted. Upon detection of completion of programming, the user should cease all
programming and take SENI of the first device in the chain inactive, HIGH.
As mentioned, the first device in the chain has its serial input port controlled
by the user, this is the first device to have its internal registers serially loaded
by the serial bit stream. When programming of this device is complete it will take
its SENO output LOW and bypass the serial data loaded on the SI input to its
SO output. The serial input of the second device in the chain is now loaded with
the data from the SO of the first device, while the second device has its SENI
input LOW. This process continues through the chain until all devices are
programmed and the SENO of the final device goes LOW.
Once all serial programming has been successfully completed, normal
operations, (queue selections on the read and write ports) may begin. When
connected in expansion mode, the IDT72V51236/72V51246/72V51256 de-
vices require a total number of serially loaded bits per device to complete serial
programming, (SCLK cycles with SENI enabled), calculated by: n[19+(Qx72)]
where Q is the number of queues the user wishes to setup within the device,
where n is the number of devices in the chain.
See Figure 6, Serial Port Connection and Figure 7, Serial Programming for
connection and timing information.
DEFAULT PROGRAMMING
During a Master Reset if the DFM (Default Mode) input is HIGH the multi-
queue device will be configured for default programming, (serial programming
is not permitted). Default programming provides the user with a simpler,
however limited means by which to setup the multi-queue flow-control device,
rather than using the serial programming method. The default mode will
configure a multi-queue device such that the maximum number of queues
possible are setup, with all of the parts available memory blocks being allocated
equally between the queues. The values of the PAE/PAF offsets is determined
by the state of the DF (default) pin during a master reset.
For the IDT72V51236/72V51246/72V51256 devices the default mode will
setup 4 queues, each queue being 4,096 x 36, 8,192 x 36 and 16,384 x 36
deep respectively. For both devices the value of the PAE/PAF offsets is
determined at master reset by the state of the DF input. If DF is LOW then both
the PAE & PAF offset will be 8, if HIGH then the value is 128.
When configuring the IDT72V51236/72V51246/72V51256 devices in de-
fault mode the user simply has to apply WCLK cycles after a master reset, until
SENO goes LOW, this signals that default programming is complete. These clock

cycles are required for the device to load its internal setup registers. When a
single multi-queue is used, the completion of device programming is signaled
by the SENO output of a device going from HIGH to LOW. Note, that SENI must
be held LOW when a device is setup for default programming mode.
When multi-queue devices are connected in expansion mode, the SENI of
the first device in a chain can be held LOW. The SENO of a device should connect
to the SENI of the next device in the chain. The SENO of the final device is used
to indicate that default programming of all devices is complete. When the final
SENO goes LOW normal operations may begin. Again, all devices will be
programmed with their maximum number of queues and the memory divided
equally between them. Please refer to Figure 8, Default Programming.
READING AND WRITING TO THE IDT MULTI-QUEUE
FLOW-CONTROL DEVICE
The IDT72V51236/72V51346/72V51256 multi-queue flow-control de-
vices can be configured in two distinct modes, namely Standard Mode and
Packet Mode.
STANDARD MODE OPERATION (PKT = LOW on Master Reset)
WRITE QUEUE SELECTION AND WRITE OPERATION
(STANDARD MODE)
The IDT72V51236/72V51346/72V51256 multi-queue flow-control de-
vices can be configured up to a maximum of 4 queues into which data can be
written via a common write port using the data inputs (Din), write clock (WCLK)
and write enable (WEN). The queue to be written is selected by the address
present on the write address bus (WRADD) during a rising edge on WCLK
while write address enable (WADEN) is HIGH. The state of WEN does not
impact the queue selection. The queue selection is requires 2 WCLK cycles.
All subsequent data writes will be to this queue until another queue is selected.
Standard mode operation is defined as individual words will be written to the
device as opposed to Packet Mode where complete packets may be written.
The write port is designed such that 100% bus utilization can be obtained. This
means that data can be written into the device on every WCLK rising edge
including the cycle that a new queue is being addressed.
Changing queues requires a minimum of 2 WCLK cycles on the write port
(see Figure 9, Write Queue Select, Write Operation and Full flag Operation).
WADEN goes high signaling a change of queue (clock cycle “A”). The address
on WRADD at that time determines the next queue. Data presented during that
cycle (“A”) and the next cycle (“B”), will be written to the active (old) queue,
provided WEN is active LOW. If WEN is HIGH (inactive) for these two clock
cycles, data will not be written in to the previous queue. The write port discrete
full flag will update to show the full status of the newly selected queue (QX) at
this last cycle’s rising edge (“B”). Data present on the data input bus (Din), can
be written into the newly selected queue (QX) on the rising edge of WCLK on
the second cycle (“C”) following a change of queue, provided WEN is LOW
and the new queue is not full. If the newly selected queue is full at the point of
its selection, any writes to that queue will be prevented. Data cannot be written
into a full queue.
Refer to Figure 9, Write Queue Select, Write Operation and Full flag
Operation, Figure 10, Write Operations & First Word Fall Through for timing
diagrams and Figure 11, Full Flag Timing in Expansion Mode for timing
diagrams.

READ QUEUE SELECTION AND READ OPERATION (STANDARD MODE)
The IDT72V51236/72V51346/72V51256 multi-queue flow-control de-
vices can be configured up to a maximum of 4 queues which data can be read
via a common read port using the data outputs (Qout), read clock (RCLK) and
read enable (REN). An output enable, OE control pin is also provided to allow
High-Impedance selection of the Qout data outputs. The multi-queue device
read port operates in a mode similar to “First Word Fall Through” on a
SuperSync IDT FIFO, but with the added feature of data output pipelining (see
Figure 10, Write Operations & First Word Fall Through). The queue to be
read is selected by the address presented on the read address bus (RDADD)
during a rising edge on RCLK while read address enable (RADEN) is HIGH.
The state of REN does not impact the queue selection. The queue selection
is requires 2 RCLK cycles. All subsequent data reads will be from this queue
until another queue is selected.
Standard mode operation is defined as individual words will be read from
the device as opposed to Packet Mode where complete packets may be read.
The read port is designed such that 100% bus utilization can be obtained. This
means that data can be read out of the device on every RCLK rising edge
including the cycle that a new queue is being addressed.
Changing queues requires a minimum of two RCLK cycles on the read port
(see Figure 12, Read Queue Select, Read Operation). RADEN goes high
signaling a change of queue (clock cycle “D”). The address on RDADD at that
time determines the next queue. Data presented during that cycle (“D”) will be
read at “D” (+ tA), can be read from the active (old) queue (QP), provided REN
is active LOW. If REN is HIGH (inactive) for this clock cycle, data will not be read
from the previous queue. The next cycle’s rising edge (“E”), the read port
discrete empty flag will update to show the empty status of the newly selected
queue (QF). The internal pipeline is also loaded at this time (“D”) with the last
word from the previous (old) queue (QP) as well as the next word from the new
queue (QF). Both of these words will fall through to the output register( provided
the OE is asserted) consecutively (cycles “E” and “F” respectively) following
the selection of the new queue regardless of the state of REN, unless the new
queue (QF) is empty. If the newly selected queue is empty, any reads from that
queue will be prevented. Data cannot be read from an empty queue. The last
word in the data output register (from the previous queue), will remain on the
data bus, but the output valid flag, OV will go HIGH, to indicate that the data
present is no longer valid. This pipelining effect provides the user with 100%
bus utilization, and brings about the possibility that a “NULL” queue may be
required within a multi-queue device. Null queue operation is discussed in the
next section. Remember that OE allows the user to place the data output bus
(Qout) into High-Impedance and the data can be read in to the output register
regardless of OE.
Refer to Table 2, for Read Address Bus arrangement. Also, refer to Figures
12, 14, and 15 for read queue selection and read port operation timing
diagrams.
PACKET MODE OPERATION (PKT = HIGH on Master Reset)
The Packet mode operation provides the capability where, user defined
packets or frames can be written to the device as opposed to Standard mode
where individual words are written. For clarification, in Packet Mode, a packet
can be written to the device with the starting location designated as Transmit
Start of Packet (TSOP) and the ending location designated as Transmit End
of Packet (TEOP). In conjunction, a packet read from the device will be
designated as Receive Start of Packet (RSOP) and a Receive End of Packet

(REOP). The minimum size for a packet is four words (SOP, two words of data
and EOP). The almost empty flag bus becomes the “Packet Ready” PR flag
bus when the device is configured for packet mode. Valid packets are indicated
when both PR and OV are asserted.
WRITE QUEUE SELECTION AND WRITE OPERATION (PACKET MODE)
It is required that a full packet be written to a queue before moving to a different
queue. The device requires two cycles to change queues. Packet mode, has
2 restrictions: <1> An extra word (or filler word) is required to be written after
each packet on the cycle following the queue change to ensure the RSOP in
the old queue is not read out on a queue change because of the first word fall
through. <2> No SOP/EOP is allowed to read/written at cycle (“C” or “I”) the
next cycle after a queue change. For clock frequency (fs) of 133MHz and below
see Application Note AN-398. In this mode, the write port may not obtain 100%
bus utilization
Changing queues requires a minimum of two WCLK cycles on the write port
(see Figure 16, Writing in Packet Mode during a Queue Change). WADEN
goes high signaling a change of queue (clock cycle “B” or “H”). The address
on WRADD at the rising edge of WCLK determines the next queue. Data
presented on Din during that cycle (“B” or “H”) can continue to be written to
the active (old) queue (QA or QB respectively), provided WEN is LOW (active).
If WEN is HIGH (inactive) for this clock cycle (H), data will not be written in to
the previous queue (QB). The cycle following a request for queue change (“C”
or “I”) will require a filler word to be written to the device. This can be done
by clocking the TEOP twice or by writing a filler word. In packet mode, the multi-
queue is designed under the 2 restrictions listed previously. Note, an
erroneous Packet Ready flag may occur if the EOP or SOP marker shows up
at the next cycle after a queue change. To prevent an erroneous Packet Ready
flag from occurring a filler word should be written into the old queue at the last
clock cycle of writing. It is important to know that no SOP or EOP may be written
into the device during this cycle (“C” or “I”). The write port discrete full flag will
update to show the full status of the newly selected queue (QB) at this last cycle’s
rising edge (“C” or “I”). Data values presented on the data input bus (Din),
can be written into the newly selected queue (QX) on the rising edge of WCLK
on the second cycle (“D” or “J”) following a request for change of queue,
provided WEN is LOW (active) and the new queue is not full. If a selected queue
is full (FF is LOW), then writes to that queue will be prevented. Note, data cannot
be written into a full queue.
Refer to Figure 16, Writing in Packet Mode during a Queue Change and
Figure 18, Data Input (Transit) packet mode of Operation for timing diagrams.
READ QUEUE SELECTION AND READ OPERATION (PACKET MODE)
In Packet Mode it is required that a full packet is read from a queue before
moving to a different queue. The device requires two cycles to change queues.
In Packet Mode, there are 2 restrictions <1> An extra word (or filler word)
should have been inserted into the data stream after each packet to insure the
RSOP in the old queue is not read out on a queue change because of the first
word fall through and this word should be discarded. <2> No EOP/SOP is
allowed to be read/written at cycle (“C” or “I”) the next cycle after a queue
change). For clock frequency of 133Mhz and below see Application Note AN-
398. In this mode, the read port may not obtain 100% bus utilization
Changing queues requires a minimum of two RCLK cycles on the read port
(see Figure 17, Reading in Packet Mode during a Queue Change). RADEN
goes high signaling a change of queue (clock cycle “B” or “I”). The address
on RDADD at the rising edge of RCLK determines the queue. As illustrated
in Figure 17 during cycle (“B”), data can be read from the active (old) queue
(QA)), provided both REN and OE are LOW (active) simultaneously with
changing queues. REOP for packet located in queue (QA) must be read before
a queue change request is made (“B”). If REN is HIGH (inactive) for this clock
cycle (“I”), data will not be read from the previous queue (QB). In applications
where the multi-queue flow-control device is connected to a shared bus, an
output enable, OE control pin is also provided to allow High-Impedance
selection of the data outputs (Qout). With reference to Figure 17 when changing
queues, a packet marker (SOP or EOP) should not be read on cycle (“C” or
“I”). Reading a SOP or EOP should not occur during the cycles required for
a queue change. It is also recommended that a queue change should not occur
once the reading of the packet has commenced. The EOP marker of the packet
prior to a queue change should be read on or before the queue change. If the
EOP word is read before a queue change, REN can be pulled high to disable
further reads. When the queue change is initiated, the filler word written into
the current queue after the EOP word will fall through followed by and the first
word from the new queue.
Refer to Figure 17, Reading in Packet Mode during a Queue Change as
well as Figures 12, 14, and 15 for timing diagrams and Table 2, for Read
Address bus arrangement.
Note, the almost empty flag bus becomes the “Packet Ready” flag bus when
the device is configured for packet mode.
PACKET READY FLAG
The multi-queue flow-control device provides the user with a Packet Ready
feature. During a Master Reset the logic “1” (HIGH) on the PKT input signal
(packet mode select), configures the device in packet mode. The PR discrete
flag, provides a packet ready status of the active queue selected on the read
port. A packet ready status is individually maintained on all queues; however
only the queue selected on the read port has its packet ready status indicated
on the PR output flag. A packet is available on the output for reading when both
PR and OV are asserted LOW. If less than a full packet is available, the PR flag
will be HIGH (packet not ready). In packet mode, no words can be read from
a queue until a complete packet has been written into that queue, regardless
of REN.
When packet mode is selected the Programmable Almost Empty bus, PAEn,
becomes the Packet Ready bus, PRn. When configured in Direct Bus (FM =
LOW during a master reset), the PRn bus provides packet ready status in 8
queue increments. The PRn bus supports either Polled or Direct modes of
operation. The PRn mode of operation is configured through the Flag Mode
(FM) bit during a Master Reset.
When the multi-queue is configured for packet mode operation, the device
must also be configured for 36 bit write data bus and 36 bit read data bus. The
two most significant bits of the 36-bit data bus are used as “packet markers”.
On the write port these are bits D34 (Transmit Start of Packet,) D35 (Transmit
End of Packet) and on the read port Q34, Q35. All four bits are monitored by
the packet control logic as data is written into and read out from the queues.
The packet ready status for individual queues is then determined by the packet
ready logic.
On the write port D34 is used to “mark” the first word being written into the
selected queue as the “Transmit Start of Packet”, TSOP. To further clarify, when
the user requires a word being written to be marked as the start of a packet,
the TSOP input (D34) must be HIGH for the same WCLK rising edge as the
word that is written. The TSOP marker is stored in the queue along with the
data it was written in until the word is read out of the queue via the read port.
On the write port D35 is used to “mark” the last word of the packet currently
being written into the selected queue as the “Transmit End of Packet” TEOP.
When the user requires a word being written to be marked as the end of a
packet, the TEOP input must be HIGH for the same WCLK rising edge as the
word that is written in. The TEOP marker is stored in the queue along with the
data it was written in until the word is read out of the queue via the read port.

(4 QUEUES) 36 BIT WIDE CONFIGURATION 589,824, 1,179,648 and 2,359,296 bits
The packet ready logic monitors all start and end of packet markers both as
they enter respective queues via the write port and as they exit queues via
the read port. The multi-queue internal logic increments and decrements a
packet counter, which is provided for each queue. The functionality of the
packet ready logic provides status as to whether at least one full packet of data
is available within the selected queue. A partial packet in a queue is regarded
as a packet not ready and PR (active LOW) will be HIGH. In Packet mode, no
words can be read from a queue until at least one complete packet has been
written into the queue, regardless of REN. For example, if a TSOP has been
written and some number of words later a TEOP is written a full packet of data
is deemed to be available, and the PR flag and OV will go active LOW.
Consequently if reads begin from a queue that has only one complete packet
and the RSOP is detected on the output port as data is being read out, PR will
go inactive HIGH. OV will remain LOW indicating there is still valid data being
read out of that queue until the REOP is read. The user may proceed with the
reading operation until the current packet has been read out and no further
complete packets are available. If during that time another complete packet has
been written into the queue and the PR flag will again gone active, then reads
from the new packet may follow after the current packet has been completely
read out.
The packet counters therefore look for start of packet markers followed by
end of packet markers and regard data in between the TSOP and TEOP as
a full packet of data. The packet monitoring has no limitation as to how many
packets are written into a queue, the only constraint is the depth of the queue.
Note, there is a minimum allowable packet size of four words, inclusive of the
TSOP marker and TEOP marker.
The packet logic does expect a TSOP marker to be followed by a TEOP
marker.
If a second TSOP marker is written after a first, it is ignored and the logic
regards data between the first TSOP and the first subsequent TEOP as the full
packet. The same is true for TEOP; a second consecutive TEOP mark is
ignored. On the read side the user should regard a packet as being between
the first RSOP and the first subsequent REOP and disregard consecutive
RSOP markers and/or REOP markers. This is why a TEOP may be written
twice, using the second TEOP as the filler word.
As an example, the user may also wish to implement the use of an “Almost
End of Packet”(AEOP) marker. For example, the AEOP can be assigned to
data input bit D33. The purpose of this AEOP marker is to provide an indicator
that the end of packet is a fixed (known) number of reads away from the end
of packet. This is a useful feature when due to latencies within the system,
monitoring the REOP marker alone does not prevent “over reading” of the data
from the queue selected. For example, an AEOP marker set 4 writes before
the TEOP marker provides the device connected to the read port with and
“almost end of packet” indication 4 cycles before the end of packet.
The AEOP can be set any number of words before the end of packet determined
by user requirements or latencies involved in the system.
See Figure 17, Reading in Packet Mode during a Queue Change, Figure
18, Data Input (Transmit) Packet Mode of Operation and Figure 19, Data
Output (Receive) Packet Mode of Operation.
PACKET MODE – MODULO OPERATION
The internal packet ready control logic performs no operation on these
modulo bits, they are only informational bits that are passed through with the
respective data byte(s).
When utilizing the multi-queue flow-control device in packet mode, the user
may also want to consider the implementation of “Modulo” operation or “valid
byte marking”. Modulo operation may be useful when the packets being
transferred through a queue are in a specific byte arrangement even though
the data bus width is 36 bits. In Modulo operation the user can concatenate bytes
to form a specific data string through the multi-queue device. A possible scenario
is where a limited number of bytes are extracted from the packet for either
analysis or filtered for security protection. This will only occur when the first 36
bit word of a packet is written in and the last 36 bit word of packet is written in.
The modulo operation is a means by which the user can mark and identify
specific data within the Queue.
On the write port data input bits, D32 (transmit modulo bit 2, TMOD2) and
D33 (transmit modulo bit 1, TMOD1) can be used as data markers. An example
of this could be to use D32 and D33 to code which bytes of a word are part
of the packet that is also being marked as the “Start of Marker” or “End of
Marker”. Conversely on the read port when reading out these marked words,
data outputs Q32 (receive modulo bit 2, RMOD2) and Q33 (receive modulo
bit 1, RMOD1) will pass on the byte validity information for that word. Refer to
Table 5 for one example of how the modulo bits may be setup and used. See

NULL QUEUE OPERATION (OF THE READ PORT)
Pipelining of data to the output port enables the device to provide 100% bus
utilization in standard mode. Data can be read out of the multi-queue flow-control
device on every RCLK cycle regardless of queue switches or other opera-
tions. The device architecture is such that the pipeline is constantly filled with
the next words in a selected queue to be read out, again providing 100% bus
utilization. This type of architecture does assume that the user is constantly
switching queues such that during a queue switch, the last data word required
from the previous queue will fall through the pipeline to the output.
Note, that if reads cease at the empty boundary of a queue, then the last word
will automatically flow through the pipeline to the output.
The Null-Q is selected via read port address space RDADD[2]. The
RDADD[5:0] bus should be addressed with xxx1xx, this address is the Null-Q.
A null queue can be selected when no further reads are required from a
previously selected queue. Changing to a null queue will continue to propagate
data in the pipeline to the previous queue’s output. The Null Q can remain
selected until a data becomes available in another queue for reading. The Null-
Q can be utilized in either standard or packet mode.
Note: If the user switches the read port to the null queue, this queue is seen
as and treated as an empty queue, therefore after switching to the null queue
the last word from the previous queue will remain in the output register and the
OV flag will go HIGH, indicating data is not valid.
The Null queue operation only has significance to the read port of the multi-
queue, it is a means to force data through the pipeline to the output. Null Q
selection and operation has no meaning on the write port of the device. Also,
refer to Figure 20, Read Operation and Null Queue Select for diagram.
PAFn FLAG BUS OPERATION
The IDT72V51236/72V51246/72V51256 multi-queue flow-control devices
can be configured for up to 4 queues, each queue having its own almost full
status. An active queue has its flag status output to the discrete flags, FF and PAF,
on the write port. Queues that are not selected for a write operation can have
their PAF status monitored via the PAFn bus. The PAFn flag bus is 4 bits wide,
so that all 4 queues can have their status output to the bus. When a single
multi-queue device is used anywhere from 1 to 4 queues may be set-up within
the part, each queue having its own dedicated PAF flag output on the PAFn bus.
Queues 1 through 4 have their PAF status to PAF[0] through PAF[3]
respectively. If less than 4 queues are used then only the associated PAFn
outputs will be required, unused PAFn outputs will be don’t care outputs. When
devices are connected in expansion mode the PAFn flag bus can also be
expanded beyond 4 bits to produce a wider PAFn bus that encompasses all
queues.
Alternatively, the 4 bit PAFn flag bus of each device can be connected together
to form a single 4 bit bus, i.e. PAF[0] of device 1 will connect to PAF[0] of device
2 etc. When connecting devices in this manner the PAFn can only be driven
by a single device at any time, (the PAFn outputs of all other devices must be
in high impedance state). There are two methods by which the user can select
which device has control of the bus, these are “Direct” (Addressed) mode or
“Polled” (Looped) mode, determined by the state of the FM (flag Mode) input
during a Master Reset.
EXPANDING UP TO 32 QUEUES OR PROVIDING DEEPER QUEUES
Expansion can take place using either the standard mode or the packet
mode. In the 4 queue multi-queue device, the WRADD address bus is 5 bits
wide. The 2 Least Significant bits (LSbs) are used to address one of the 4
available queues within a single multi-queue device. The 3 Most Significant bits
(MSbs) are used when a device is connected in expansion mode with up to
8 devices connected in width expansion, each device having its own 3-bit
address. When logically expanded with multiple parts, each device is statically
setup with a unique chip ID code on the ID pins, ID0, ID1, and ID2. A device
is selected when the 3 Most Significant bits of the WRADD address bus matches
a 3-bit ID code. The maximum logical expansion is 32 queues (4 queues x
8 devices) or a minimum of 8 queues (1 queue per device x 8 devices), each
of the maximum size of the individual memory device.
Note: The WRADD bus is also used in conjunction with FSTR (almost full
flag bus strobe), to address the almost full flag bus during direct mode of
operation.
Refer to Table 1, for Write Address bus arrangement. Also, refer to Figure
11, Full Flag Timing Expansion Mode, Figure 13, Output Valid Flag Timing
(In Expansion Mode), and Figure 30, Multi-Queue Expansion Diagram, for
timing diagrams.
BUS MATCHING OPERATION
Bus Matching operation between the input port and output port is available.
During a master reset of the multi-queue the state of the three setup pins, BM
(Bus Matching), IW (Input Width) and OW (Output Width) determine the input and
output port bus widths as per the selections shown in Table 3, “Bus Matching
Set-up”. 9 bit bytes, 18 bit words and 36 bit long words can be written into and
read from the queues provided that at least one of the ports is setup for x36
operation. When writing to or reading from the multi-queue in a bus matching
mode, the device orders data in a “Little Endian” format. See Figure 3, Bus
Matching Byte Arrangement for details.
The Full flag and Almost Full flag operation is always based on writes and
reads of data widths determined by the write port width. For example, if the input
port is x36 and the output port is x9, then four data reads from a full queue will
be required to cause the full flag to go HIGH (queue not full). Conversely, the
Output Valid flag and Almost Empty flag operations are always based on writes
and reads of data widths determined by the read port. For example, if the input
port is x18 and the output port is x36, two write operations will be required to
cause the output valid flag of an empty queue to go LOW, output valid (queue
is not empty).
Note, that the input port serves all queues within a device, as does the output
port, therefore the input bus width to all queues is equal (determined by the input
port size) and the output bus width from all queues is equal (determined by the
output port size).

FULL FLAG OPERATION
The multi-queue flow-control device provides a single Full Flag output, FF.
The FF flag output provides a full status of the queue currently selected on the
write port for write operations. Internally the multi-queue flow-control device
monitors and maintains a status of the full condition of all queues within it, however
only the queue that is selected for write operations has its full status output to the
FF flag. This dedicated flag is often referred to as the “active queue full flag”.
When queue switches are being made on the write port, the FF flag output
will switch to the new queue and provide the user with the new queue status,
on the cycle after a new queue selection is made. The user then has a full status

for the new queue one cycle ahead of the WCLK rising edge that data can be
written into the new queue. That is, a new queue can be selected on the write
port via the WRADD bus, WADEN enable and a rising edge of WCLK. On the
next rising edge of WCLK, the FF flag output will show the full status of the newly
selected queue. On the second rising edge of WCLK following the queue
selection, data can be written into the newly selected queue provided that data
and enable setup & hold times are met.
Note, the FF flag will provide status of a newly selected queue one WCLK
cycle after queue selection, which is one cycle before data can be written to that
queue. This prevents the user from writing data to a queue that is full, (assuming
that a queue switch has been made to a queue that is actually full).
The FF flag is synchronous to the WCLK and all transitions of the FF flag occur
based on a rising edge of WCLK. Internally the multi-queue device monitors and
keeps a record of the full status for all queues. It is possible that the status of a
FF flag maybe changing internally even though that flag is not the active queue
flag (selected on the write port). A queue selected on the read port may
experience a change of its internal full flag status based on read operations.
See Figure 9, Write Queue Select, Write Operation and Full Flag Operation
and Figure 11, Full Flag Timing in Expansion Mode for timing information.
EXPANSION MODE - FULL FLAG OPERATION
When multi-queue devices are connected in Expansion mode the FF flags
of all devices should be connected together, such that a system controller
monitoring and managing the multi-queue devices write port only looks at a
single FF flag (as opposed to a discrete FF flag for each device). This FF flag
is only pertinent to the queue being selected for write operations at that time.
Remember, that when in expansion mode only one multi-queue device can be
written to at any moment in time, thus the FF flag provides status of the active
queue on the write port.
This connection of flag outputs to create a single flag requires that the FF flag
output have a High-Impedance capability, such that when a queue selection is
made only a single device drives the FF flag bus and all other FF flag outputs
connected to the FF flag bus are placed into High-Impedance. The user does
not have to select this High-Impedance state, a given multi-queue flow-control
device will automatically place its FF flag output into High-Impedance when
none of its queues are selected for write operations.
When queues within a single device are selected for write operations, the FF
flag output of that device will maintain control of the FF flag bus. Its FF flag will
simply update between queue switches to show the respective queue full status.
The multi-queue device places its FF flag output into High-Impedance based
on the 3 bit ID code found in the 3 most significant bits of the write queue address
bus, WRADD. If the 3 most significant bits of WRADD match the 3 bit ID code setup
on the static inputs, ID0, ID1 and ID2 then the FF flag output of the respective
device will be in a Low-Impedance state. If they do not match, then the FF flag
output of the respective device will be in a High-Impedance state. See Figure
11, Full Flag Timing in Expansion Mode for details of flag operation, including
when more than one device is connected in expansion.
OUTPUT VALID FLAG OPERATION
The multi-queue flow-control device provides a single Output Valid flag
output, OV. The OV provides an empty status or data output valid status for the
data word currently available on the output register of the read port. The rising
edge of an RCLK cycle that places new data onto the output register of the read
port, also updates the OV flag to show whether or not that new data word is
actually valid. Internally the multi-queue flow-control monitors and maintains a
status of the empty condition of all queues within it, however only the queue that
is selected for read operations has its output valid (empty) status output to the
OV flag, giving a valid status for the word being read at that time.
The nature of the first word fall through operation means that when the last
data word is read from a selected queue, the OV flag will go HIGH on the next
enabled read, that is, on the next rising edge of RCLK while REN is LOW.
When queue switches are being made on the read port, the OV flag will switch
to show status of the new queue in line with the data output from the new queue.
When a queue selection is made the first data from that queue will appear on
the Qout data outputs 2 RCLK cycles later, the OV will change state to indicate
validity of the data from the newly selected queue on this 2nd RCLK cycle also.
The previous cycles will continue to output data from the previous queue and
the OV flag will indicate the status of those outputs. Again, the OV flag always
indicates status for the data currently present on the output register.
The OV flag is synchronous to the RCLK and all transitions of the OV flag occur
based on a rising edge of RCLK. Internally the multi-queue device monitors and
keeps a record of the output valid (empty) status for all queues. It is possible that
the status of an OV flag may be changing internally even though that respective
flag is not the active queue flag (selected on the read port). A queue selected
on the write port may experience a change of its internal OV flag status based
on write operations, that is, data may be written into that queue causing it to
become “not empty”.
See Figure 12, Read Queue Select, Read Operation and Figure 13, Output
Valid Flag Timing for details of the timing.
EXPANSION MODE – OUTPUT VALID FLAG OPERATION
When multi-queue devices are connected in Expansion mode, the OV flags
of all devices should be connected together, such that a system controller
monitoring and managing the multi-queue devices read port only looks at a
single OV flag (as opposed to a discrete OV flag for each device). This OV flag
is only pertinent to the queue being selected for read operations at that time.
Remember, that when in expansion mode only one multi-queue device can be
read from at any moment in time, thus the OV flag provides status of the active
queue on the read port.
This connection of flag outputs to create a single flag requires that the OV flag
output have a High-Impedance capability, such that when a queue selection is
made only a single device drives the OV flag bus and all other OV flag outputs
connected to the OV flag bus are placed into High-Impedance. The user does
not have to select this High-Impedance state, a given multi-queue flow-control
device will automatically place its OV flag output into High-Impedance when
none of its queues are selected for read operations.
When queues within a single device are selected for read operations, the OV
flag output of that device will maintain control of the OV flag bus. Its OV flag will
simply update between queue switches to show the respective queue output
valid status.
The multi-queue device places its OV flag output into High-Impedance based
on the 3 bit ID code found in the 3 most significant bits of the read queue address
bus, RDADD. If the 3 most significant bits of RDADD match the 3 bit ID code setup
on the static inputs, ID0, ID1 and ID2 then the OV flag output of the respective
device will be in a Low-Impedance state. If they do not match, then the OV flag
output of the respective device will be in a High-Impedance state. See Figure
13, Output Valid Flag Timing for details of flag operation, including when more
than one device is connected in expansion.
ALMOST FULL FLAG
As previously mentioned the multi-queue flow-control device provides a
single Programmable Almost Full flag output, PAF. The PAF flag output provides
a status of the almost full condition for the active queue currently selected on the
write port for write operations. Internally the multi-queue flow-control device
monitors and maintains a status of the almost full condition of all queues within
it, however only the queue that is selected for write operations has its full status

TEMPERATURE RANGES
output to the PAF flag. This dedicated flag is often referred to as the “active queue
almost full flag”. The position of the PAF flag boundary within a queue can be
at any point within that queues depth. This location can be user programmed
via the serial port or one of the default values (8 or 128) can be selected if the
user has performed default programming.
As mentioned, every queue within a multi-queue device has its own almost
full status, when a queue is selected on the write port, this status is output via the
PAF flag. The PAF flag value for each queue is programmed during multi-queue
device programming (along with the number of queues, queue depths and
almost empty values). The PAF offset value, m, for a respective queue can be
programmed to be anywhere between ‘0’ and ‘D’, where ‘D’ is the total memory
depth for that queue. The PAF value of different queues within the same device
can be different values.
When queue switches are being made on the write port, the PAF flag output
will switch to the new queue and provide the user with the new queue status,
on the second cycle after a new queue selection is made, on the same WCLK
cycle that data can actually be written to the new queue. That is, a new queue
can be selected on the write port via the WRADD bus, WADEN enable and a
rising edge of WCLK. On the second rising edge of WCLK following a queue
selection, the PAF flag output will show the full status of the newly selected queue.
The PAF is flag output is double register buffered, so when a write operation
occurs at the almost full boundary causing the selected queue status to go almost
full the PAF will go LOW 2 WCLK cycles after the write. The same is true when
a read occurs, there will be a 2 WCLK cycle delay after the read operation.
So the PAF flag delays are:
from a write operation to PAF flag LOW is 2 WCLK + tWAF
The delay from a read operation to PAF flag HIGH is tSKEW2 + WCLK + tWAF
Note, if tSKEW is violated there will be one added WCLK cycle delay.
The PAF flag is synchronous to the WCLK and all transitions of the PAF flag
occur based on a rising edge of WCLK. Internally the multi-queue device
monitors and keeps a record of the almost full status for all queues. It is possible
that the status of a PAF flag maybe changing internally even though that flag is
not the active queue flag (selected on the write port). A queue selected on the
read port may experience a change of its internal almost full flag status based
on read operations. The multi-queue flow-control device also provides a
duplicate of the PAF flag on the PAF[3:0] flag bus, this will be discussed in detail
in a later section of the data sheet.
See Figures 22 and 23 for Almost Full flag timing and queue switching.
ALMOST EMPTY FLAG
As previously mentioned the multi-queue flow-control device provides a
single Programmable Almost Empty flag output, PAE. The PAE flag output
provides a status of the almost empty condition for the active queue currently
selected on the read port for read operations. Internally the multi-queue flow-
control monitors and maintains a status of the almost empty condition of all queues
within it, however only the queue that is selected for read operations has its empty
status output to the PAE flag. This dedicated flag is often referred to as the “active
queue almost empty flag”. The position of the PAE flag boundary within a queue
can be at any point within that queues depth. This location can be user
programmed via the serial port or one of the default values (8 or 128) can be
selected if the user has performed default programming.
As mentioned, every queue within a multi-queue device has its own almost
empty status, when a queue is selected on the read port, this status is output via
the PAE flag. The PAE flag value for each queue is programmed during multi-
queue device programming (along with the number of queues, queue depths
and almost full values). The PAE offset value, n, for a respective queue can be
programmed to be anywhere between ‘0’ and ‘D’, where ‘D’ is the total memory
depth for that queue. The PAE value of different queues within the same device
can be different values.
When queue switches are being made on the read port, the PAE flag output
will switch to the new queue and provide the user with the new queue status,
on the second cycle after a new queue selection is made, on the same RCLK
cycle that data actually falls through to the output register from the new queue.
That is, a new queue can be selected on the read port via the RDADD bus,
RADEN enable and a rising edge of RCLK. On the second rising edge of RCLK
following a queue selection, the data word from the new queue will be available
at the output register and the PAE flag output will show the empty status of the
newly selected queue. The PAE is flag output is double register buffered, so
when a read operation occurs at the almost empty boundary causing the
selected queue status to go almost empty the PAE will go LOW 2 RCLK cycles
after the read. The same is true when a write occurs, there will be a 2 RCLK
cycle delay after the write operation.
So the PAE flag delays are:
from a read operation to PAE flag LOW is 2 RCLK + tRAE
The delay from a write operation to PAE flag HIGH is tSKEW2 + RCLK + tRAE
Note, if tSKEW is violated there will be one added RCLK cycle delay.
The PAE flag is synchronous to the RCLK and all transitions of the PAE flag
occur based on a rising edge of RCLK. Internally the multi-queue device
monitors and keeps a record of the almost empty status for all queues. It is possible
that the status of a PAE flag maybe changing internally even though that flag is
not the active queue flag (selected on the read port). A queue selected on the
write port may experience a change of its internal almost empty flag status based
on write operations. The multi-queue flow-control device also provides a
duplicate of the PAE flag on the PAE[3:0] flag bus, this will be discussed in detail
in a later section of the data sheet.

IDT72V51236/72V51246/72V51256 3.3V, MULTI-QUEUE FLOW-CONTROL DEVICES
(4 QUEUES) 36 BIT WIDE CONFIGURATION 589,824, 1,179,648 and 2,359,296 bits
PAFn BUS EXPANSION - DIRECT MODE
If FM is LOW at Master Reset then the PAFn bus operates in Direct
(addressed) mode. In direct mode the user can address the device they require
to control the PAFn bus. The address present on the 3 most significant bits of
the WRADD[4:0] address bus with FSTR (PAF flag strobe), HIGH will be
selected as the device on a rising edge of WCLK. So to address the first device
in a bank of devices the WRADD[4:0] address should be “000xx” the second
device “001xx” and so on. The 3 most significant bits of the WRADD[4:0] address
bus correspond to the device ID inputs ID[2:0]. The PAFn bus will change status
to show the new device selected 1 WCLK cycle after device selection. Note, that
if a read or write operation is occurring to a specific queue, say queue ‘x’ on
the same cycle as a PAFn bus switch to the device containing queue ‘x’, then
there may be an extra WCLK cycle delay before that queues status is correctly
shown on the respective output of the PAFn bus. However, the “active” PAF
flag will show correct status at all times.
Devices can be selected on consecutive WCLK cycles, that is the device
controlling the PAFn bus can change every WCLK cycle. Also, data present
on the input bus, Din, can be written into a queue on the same WLCK rising edge
that a device is being selected on the PAFn bus, the only restriction being that
a write queue selection and PAFn bus selection cannot be made on the same cycle.
PAFn BUS EXPANSION– POLLED MODE
If FM is HIGH at Master Reset then the PAFn bus operates in Polled (Looped)
mode. In polled mode the PAFn bus automatically cycles through the devices
connected in expansion. In expansion mode one device will be set as the
Master, MAST input tied HIGH, all other devices will have MAST tied LOW. The
master device is the first device to take control of the PAFn bus and place the
PAF status of its queues onto the bus on the first rising edge of WCLK after the
MRS input goes HIGH once a Master Reset is complete. The FSYNC (PAF sync
pulse) output of the first device (master device), will be HIGH for one cycle of
WCLK indicating that it is has control of the PAFn bus for that cycle.
The device also passes a “token” onto the next device in the chain, the next
device assuming control of the PAFn bus on the next WCLK cycle. This token
passing is done via the FXO outputs and FXI inputs of the devices (“PAFn
Expansion Out” and “PAFn Expansion In”). The FXO output of the first device
connecting to the FXI input of the second device in the chain, the FXO of the
second device connects to the FXI of the third device and so on. The FXO of
the final device in a chain connects to the FXI of the first device, so that once the
PAFn bus has cycled through all devices control is again passed to the first
device. The FXO output of a device will be HIGH for the WCLK cycle it has control
of the bus.
Please refer to Figure 28,
PAF
n Bus – Polled Mode for timing information.
PAEn/PRn FLAG BUS OPERATION
The IDT72V51236/72V51246/72V51256 multi-queue flow-control devices
can be configured for up to 4 queues, each queue having its own almost empty/
packet ready status. An active queue has its flag status output to the discrete flags,
OV, PAE and PR, on the read port. Queues that are not selected for a read
operation can have their PAE/PR status monitored via the PAEn/PRn bus. The
PAEn/PRn flag bus is 4 bits wide, so that all 4 queues can have their status output
to the bus. The multi-queue device can provide either “Almost Empty” status or
“Packet Ready” status via the PAEn/PRn bus of its queues, depending on which
has been selected via the PKT (Packet) input during a master reset. If PKT is
HIGH then packet mode is selected and the PAEn/PRn bus will provide “Packet
Ready” status. If it is LOW then the PAEn/PRn bus will provide “Almost Empty”
status. In either case the operation of the bus is the same the difference being
that the bus is providing “Packet Ready” status versus “Almost Empty” status.
When a single multi-queue device is used anywhere from 1 to 4 queues may
be set-up within the part, each queue having its own dedicated PAEn/PRn flag
output on the PAEn/PRn bus. Queues 1 through 4 have their PAE/PR status
to PAE[0] through PAE[3] respectively. If less than 4 queues are used then only
the associated PAEn/PRn outputs will be required, unused PAEn/PRn outputs
will be don’t care outputs. When devices are connected in expansion mode the
PAEn/PRn flag bus can also be expanded beyond 4 bits to produce a wider
PAEn/PRn bus that encompasses all queues.
Alternatively, the 4 bit PAEn/PRn flag bus of each device can be connected
together to form a single 4 bit bus, i.e. PAE[0] of device 1 will connect to PAE[0]
of device 2 etc. When connecting devices in this manner the PAEn/PRn bus can
only be driven by a single device at any time, (the PAEn/PRn outputs of all other
devices must be in high impedance state). There are two methods by which the
user can select which device has control of the bus, these are “Direct”
(Addressed) mode or “Polled” (Looped) mode, determined by the state of the
FM (flag Mode) input during a Master Reset.
PAEn/PRn BUS EXPANSION- DIRECT MODE
If FM is LOW at Master Reset then the PAEn/PRn bus operates in Direct
(addressed) mode. In direct mode the user can address the device they require
to control the PAEn/PRn bus. The address present on the 3 most significant bits
of the RDADD[5:0] address bus with ESTR (PAE/PR flag strobe), HIGH will
be selected as the device on a rising edge of RCLK. So to address the first device
in a bank of devices the RDADD[5:0] address should be “000xx” the second
device “001xx” and so on. The 3 most significant bits of the RDADD[5:0] address
bus correspond to the device ID inputs ID[2:0]. The PAEn/PRn bus will change
status to show the new device selected 1 RCLK cycle after device selection.
Note, that if a read or write operation is occurring to a specific queue, say queue
‘x’ on the same cycle as a PAEn/PRn bus switch to the device containing queue
‘x’, then there may be an extra RCLK cycle delay before that queues status is
correctly shown on the respective output of the PAEn/PRn bus. However, the
“active” PAE and/or PR flag will show correct status at all times.
Devices can be selected on consecutive RCLK cycles, that is the device
controlling the PAEn/PRn bus can change every RCLK cycle. Also, data can
be read out of a queue on the same RCLK rising edge that a device is being
selected on the PAEn/PRn bus, the only restriction being that a read queue
selection and PAEn/PRn bus selection cannot be made on the same cycle.
PAEn/PRn BUS EXPANSION- POLLED MODE
If FM is HIGH at Master Reset then the PAEn/PRn bus operates in Polled
(Looped) mode. In polled mode the PAEn/PRn bus automatically cycles through
the devices connected in expansion. In expansion mode one device will be set
as the Master, MAST input tied HIGH, all other devices will have MAST tied LOW.
The master device is the first device to take control of the PAEn/PRn bus and
place the PAE/PR status of its queues onto the bus on the first rising edge of RCLK
after the MRS input goes HIGH once a Master Reset is complete. The ESYNC
(PAE/PR sync pulse) output of the first device (master device), will be HIGH for
one cycle of RCLK indicating that it is has control of the PAEn/PRn bus for that
cycle.
The device also passes a “token” onto the next device in the chain, the next
device assuming control of the PAEn/PRn bus on the next RCLK cycle. This
token passing is done via the EXO outputs and EXI inputs of the devices (“PAEn/
PRn Expansion Out” and “PAEn/PRn Expansion In”). The EXO output of the
first device connecting to the EXI input of the second device in the chain, the EXO
of the second device connects to the EXI of the third device and so on. The EXO
of the final device in a chain connects to the EXI of the first device, so that once
the PAEn/PRn bus has cycled through all devices control is again passed to
the first device. The EXO output of a device will be HIGH for the RCLK cycle
it has control of the bus.

Cycle:
*A* Queue, Qx is selected on the write port.
The FF flag is providing status of a previously selected queue, within the same device.
*AA* Queue, Qy is selected for read operations.
*B* The FF flag output updates to show the status of Qx, it is not full.
*BB* Word W+1 is read from the previous queue regardless of REN due to FWFT.
*C* Word, Wd is written into Qx. This causes Qx to go full.
*CC* Word, W0 is read from Qy regardless of REN, this is due to the FWFT effect.
*D* Queue, Qy is selected within the same device as Qx. A write to Qx cannot occur on this cycle because it is full, FF is LOW.
*DD* No reads occur, REN is HIGH.
*E* Again, a write to Qx cannot occur on this cycle because it is full, FF is LOW. The FF flag updates after time tWFF to show that queue, Qy is not full.
*EE* Word, W1 is read from Qy, this causes Qy to go “not full”, FF flag goes HIGH after time, tSKEW1 + tWFF. Note, if tSKEW1 is violated the time FF HIGH will be: tSKEW1 + WCLK + tWFF.
*F* Word, Wd-2 is written into Qy.
*FF* Word, W2 is read from Qy.
*G* Word, Wd-1 is written into Qy.
*H* Word, Wd is written into Qy, this causes Qy to go full, FF goes LOW.
*I* No writes occur to Qy.
*J* Qy goes “not full” based on reading word W1 from Qy on cycle *EE*.

NOTE:
1. REN = HIGH.
Cycle:
*A* Queue, Q3 of device 1 is selected on the write port.
The FF flag of device 1 is in High-Impedance, the write port of device 2 was previously selected.
WEN is HIGH so no write occurs.
*AA* Queue, Q0 of device 1 is selected on the read port.
*B* The FF flag of device 2 goes to High-Impedance and the FF flag of device 1 goes to Low-Impedance, logic HIGH indicating that D1 Q3 is not full.
WEN is HIGH so no write occurs.
*BB* Word, Wx is read from the previously selected queue, (due to FWFT).
*C* Word, Wd is written into Q3 of D1. This write operation causes Q3 to go full, FF goes LOW.
*CC* The first word from Q0 of D1 selected on cycle *AA* is read out, this occurred regardless of REN due to FWFT. This read caused Q0 to go not full, therefore the FF flag will go HIGH after: tSKEW1 + tWFF.
Note if tSKEW1 is violated the time to FF flag HIGH is tSKEW1 + WLCK + tWFF.
*D* Queue, Q0 of device 1 is selected on the write port. No write occurs on this cycle.
*E* The FF flag updates to show the status of D1 Q0, it is not full, FF goes HIGH.
*F* Word, Wd is written into Q0 of D1. This causes the queue to go full, FF goes LOW.
*G* No write occurs regardless of WEN, the FF flag is LOW preventing writes.
*H* The FF flag goes HIGH due to the read from Q0 of D1 on cycle *CC*. (This read is not an enabled read, it is due to the FWFT operation).
*I* Queue, Q2 of device 2 is selected on the write port.
*J* The FF flag of device 1 goes to High-Impedance, this device was deselected on the write port on cycle *I*. The FF flag of device 2 goes to Low-Impedance and provides status of Q2 of D2.

*B* Wn-2 is read.
*C* Reads are disabled, Wn-1 remains on the output bus.
*D* A new queue, QF is selected for read operations.
*E* Due to the First Word Fall Through (FWFT) effect, a read from the previous queue Qp will take place, Wn from Qp is placed onto the output bus regardless of REN.
*F* The next word available in the new queue, QF-W0 falls through to the output bus, again this is regardless of REN.
*G* A new queue, QG is selected for read operations. (This queue is an empty queue). Word, W1 is also read from QF.
*H* Word, W1 is read from QF. This occurs regardless of REN due to FWFT.
*I* Word W2 from QF remains on the output bus because QG is empty. The Output Valid Flag, OV goes HIGH to indicate that the current word is not valid, i.e. QG is empty.
W2 is the last word in QG.

Cycle:
*A* Queue 3 of Device 1 is selected for read operations. The OV is currently being driven by Device 2, a queue within device 2 is selected for reads. Device 2 also has control
of Qout bus, its Qout outputs are in Low-Impedance. This diagram only shows the Qout outputs of device 1. (Reads are disabled).
*B* Reads are now enabled. A word from the previously selected queue of Device 2 will be read out.
*C* The Qout of Device 1 goes to Low-Impedance and word Wd is read from Q3 of D1. This happens to be the last word of Q3. Device 2 places its Qout outputs into
High-Impedance, device 1 has control of the Qout bus. The OV flag of Device 2 goes to High-Impedance and Device 1 takes control of OV. The OV flag of Device 1 goes LOW
to show that Wd of Q3 is valid.
*D* Queue 2 of device 1 is selected for read operations. The last word of Q3 was read on the previous cycle, therefore OV goes HIGH to indicate that the data on the Qout is
not valid (Q3 was read to empty). Word, Wd remains on the output bus.
*E* The last word of Q3 remains on the Qout bus, OV is HIGH, indicating that this word has been previously read.
*F* The next word (We-1), available from the newly selected queue, Q2 of device 1 is now read out. This will occur regardless of REN, 2 RCLK cycles after queue selection
due to the FWFT operation. The OV flag now goes LOW to indicate that this word is valid.
*G* The last word, We is read from Q2, this queue is now empty.
*H* The OV flag goes HIGH to indicate that Q2 was read to empty on the previous cycle.
*I* Due to a write operation the OV flag goes LOW and data word W0 is read from Q2. The latency is: tSKEW1 + 1*RCLK + tROV.

Cycle:
*A* Word Wd+1 is read from the previously selected queue, Qp.
*B* Reads are disabled, word Wd+1 remains on the output bus.
*C* A new queue, Qn is selected for read port operations.
*D* Due to FWFT operation Word, Wd+2 of Qp is read out regardless of REN.
*E* The next available word Wx of Qn is read out regardless of REN, 2 RCLK cycles after queue selection. This is FWFT operation.
*F* The queue, Qp is again selected.
*G* Word Wx+1 is read from Qn regardless of REN, this is due to FWFT.
*H* Word Wd+3 is read from Qp, this read occurs regardless of REN due to FWFT operation.
*I* Word Wd+4 is read from Qp.
*J* Reads are disabled on this cycle, therefore no further reads occur.
NOTES:
1. The Output Valid flag, OV is HIGH therefore the previously selected queue has been read to empty. The Output Enable input is Asynchronous, therefore the Qout output bus
will go to Low-Impedance after time tOLZ.
The data currently on the output register will be available on the output after time tOE. This data is the previous data on the output register, this is the last word read out of the
previous queue.
2. In expansion mode the OE inputs of all devices should be connected together. This allows the output busses of all devices to be High-Impedance controlled.
Cycle:
*A* Queue A is selected for reads. No data will fall through on this cycle, the previous queue was read to empty.
*B* No data will fall through on this cycle, the previous queue was read to empty.
*C* Word, W0 from Qa is read out regardless of REN due to FWFT operation. The OV flag goes LOW indicating that Word W0 is valid.
*D* Reads are disabled therefore word, W0 of Qa remains on the output bus.
*E* Reads are again enabled so word W1 is read from Qa.
*F* Word W2 is read from Qa.
*G* Queue, Qb is selected on the read port. This queue is actually empty. Word, W3 is read from Qa.
*H* Word, W4 falls through from Qa.
*I* Output Valid flag, OV goes HIGH to indicate that Qb is empty. Data on the output port is no longer valid.
Output Enable is taken HIGH, this is Asynchronous so the output bus goes to High-Impedance after time, tOHZ.

Figure 20. Read Operation and Null Queue Select
NOTES:
1 . The purpose of the Null queue operation is so that the user can stop reading a block (packet) of data from a queue without filling the 2 stage output pipeline with the next words
from that queue.
2. Please see Figure 21, Null Queue Flow Diagram.
Cycle:
*A* Null Q of device 0 is selected, when word Wn-1 from previously selected Q1 is read.
*B* REN is HIGH and Wn (Last Word of the Packet) of Q1 is pipelined onto the O/P register.
Note: *B* and *C* are a minimum 2 RCLK cycles between Q selects.
*C* The Null Q is seen as an empty Queue on the read side, therefore Wn of Q1 remains in the O/P register and OV goes HIGH.
*D* A new Q, Q3 is selected and the 1st word of Q3 will fall through present on the O/P register on cycle *F*.

Cycle:
*A* Queue 2 of Device 1 is selected on the write port. A queue within Device 2 had previously been selected. The PAF output of device 1 is High-Impedance.
*B* No write occurs.
*C* Word, Wd-m is written into Q2 causing the PAF flag to go from HIGH to LOW. The flag latency is 2 WCLK cycles + tWAF.
*D* Queue 0 if device 1 is now selected for write operations. This queue is not almost full, therefore the PAF flag will update after a 2 WCLK + tWAF latency.
*E* The PAF flag goes LOW based on the write 2 cycles earlier.
*F* The PAF flag goes HIGH due to the queue switch to Q0.

JTAG INTERFACE
Five additional pins (TDI, TDO, TMS, TCK and TRST) are provided to
support the JTAG boundary scan interface. The IDT72V51236/72V51246/
72V51256 incorporates the necessary tap controller and modified pad cells to
implement the JTAG facility.
Note that IDT provides appropriate Boundary Scan Description Language
program files for these devices.
The Standard JTAG interface consists of four basic elements:
Test Access Port (TAP)
TAP controller
Instruction Register (IR)
Data Register Port (DR)
The following sections provide a brief description of each element. For a
complete description refer to the IEEE Standard Test Access Port Specification
(IEEE Std. 1149.1-1990).
The Figure below shows the standard Boundary-Scan Architecture
Figure 31. Boundary Scan Architecture
TEST ACCESS PORT (TAP)
The Tap interface is a general-purpose port that provides access to the
internal of the processor. It consists of four input ports (TCLK, TMS, TDI, TRST)
and one output port (TDO).
THE TAP CONTROLLER
The Tap controller is a synchronous finite state machine that responds to
TMS and TCLK signals to generate clock and control signals to the Instruction
and Data Registers for capture and update of data.

Refer to the IEEE Standard Test Access Port Specification (IEEE Std.

All state transitions within the TAP controller occur at the rising edge of the
TCLK pulse. The TMS signal level (0 or 1) determines the state progression
that occurs on each TCLK rising edge. The TAP controller takes precedence
over the Queue and must be reset after power up of the device. See TRST
description for more details on TAP controller reset.
Test-Logic-Reset All test logic is disabled in this controller state enabling
the normal operation of the IC. The TAP controller state machine is designed
in such a way that, no matter what the initial state of the controller is, the Test-
Logic-Reset state can be entered by holding TMS at high and pulsing TCK five
times. This is the reason why the Test Reset (TRST) pin is optional.
Run-Test-Idle In this controller state, the test logic in the IC is active only if
certain instructions are present. For example, if an instruction activates the self
test, then it will be executed when the controller enters this state. The test logic
in the IC is idles otherwise.
Select-DR-Scan This is a controller state where the decision to enter the
Data Path or the Select-IR-Scan state is made.
Select-IR-Scan This is a controller state where the decision to enter the
Instruction Path is made. The Controller can return to the Test-Logic-Reset state
other wise.
Figure 32. TAP Controller State Diagram
Capture-IR In this controller state, the shift register bank in the Instruction
Register parallel loads a pattern of fixed values on the rising edge of TCK. The
last two significant bits are always required to be “01”.
Shift-IR In this controller state, the instruction register gets connected
between TDI and TDO, and the captured pattern gets shifted on each rising edge
of TCK. The instruction available on the TDI pin is also shifted in to the instruction
register.
Exit1-IR This is a controller state where a decision to enter either the Pause-
IR state or Update-IR state is made.
Pause-IR This state is provided in order to allow the shifting of instruction
register to be temporarily halted.
Exit2-DR This is a controller state where a decision to enter either the Shift-
IR state or Update-IR state is made.
Update-IR In this controller state, the instruction in the instruction register is
latched in to the latch bank of the Instruction Register on every falling edge of
TCK. This instruction also becomes the current instruction once it is latched.
Capture-DR In this controller state, the data is parallel loaded in to the data
registers selected by the current instruction on the rising edge of TCK.
Shift-DR, Exit1-DR, Pause-DR, Exit2-DR and Update-DR These
controller states are similar to the Shift-IR, Exit1-IR, Pause-IR, Exit2-IR and
Update-IR states in the Instruction path.
NOTES:
1. Five consecutive TCK cycles with TMS = 1 will reset the TAP.
2. TAP controller does not automatically reset upon power-up. The user must provide a reset to the TAP controller (either by TRST or TMS).
3. TAP controller must be reset before normal Queue operations can begin.

(4 QUEUES) 36 BIT WIDE CONFIGURATION 589,824, 1,179,648 and 2,359,296 bits
THE INSTRUCTION REGISTER
The Instruction register allows an instruction to be shifted in serially into the
processor at the rising edge of TCLK.
The Instruction is used to select the test to be performed, or the test data
register to be accessed, or both. The instruction shifted into the register is latched
at the completion of the shifting process when the TAP controller is at Update-
IR state.
The instruction register must contain 4 bit instruction register-based cells
which can hold instruction data. These mandatory cells are located nearest the
serial outputs they are the least significant bits.
TEST DATA REGISTER
The Test Data register contains three test data registers: the Bypass, the
Boundary Scan register and Device ID register.
These registers are connected in parallel between a common serial input
and a common serial data output.
The following sections provide a brief description of each element. For a
complete description, refer to the IEEE Standard Test Access Port Specification
(IEEE Std. 1149.1-1990).
TEST BYPASS REGISTER
The register is used to allow test data to flow through the device from TDI
to TDO. It contains a single stage shift register for a minimum length in serial path.
When the bypass register is selected by an instruction, the shift register stage
is set to a logic zero on the rising edge of TCLK when the TAP controller is in
the Capture-DR state.
The operation of the bypass register should not have any effect on the
operation of the device in response to the BYPASS instruction.
THE BOUNDARY-SCAN REGISTER
The Boundary Scan Register allows serial data TDI be loaded in to or read
out of the processor input/output ports. The Boundary Scan Register is a part
of the IEEE 1149.1-1990 Standard JTAG Implementation.
THE DEVICE IDENTIFICATION REGISTER
The Device Identification Register is a Read Only 32-bit register used to
specify the manufacturer, part number and version of the processor to be
determined through the TAP in response to the IDCODE instruction.
IDT JEDEC ID number is 0xB3. This translates to 0x33 when the parity
is dropped in the 11-bit Manufacturer ID field.
For the IDT72V51236/72V51246/72V51256, the Part Number field con-
tains the following values:
Device Part# Field (HEX)
IDT72V51236 0x41B
IDT72V51246 0x41C
IDT72V51256 0x41D
JTAG INSTRUCTION REGISTER
The Instruction register allows instruction to be serially input into the device
when the TAP controller is in the Shift-IR state. The instruction is decoded to
perform the following:
Select test data registers that may operate while the instruction is
current. The other test data registers should not interfere with chip
operation and the selected data register.
Define the serial test data register path that is used to shift data between
TDI and TDO during data register scanning.
The Instruction Register is a 4 bit field (i.e. IR3, IR2, IR1, IR0) to decode
16 different possible instructions. Instructions are decoded as follows.
JTAG INSTRUCTION REGISTER DECODING
Hex Instruction Function
Value
00 EXTEST Select Boundary Scan Register
01 SAMPLE/PRELOAD Select Boundary Scan Register
02 IDCODE Select Chip Identification data register
04 HIGH-IMPEDANCE JTAG
0F BYPASS Select Bypass Register
The following sections provide a brief description of each instruction. For
a complete description refer to the IEEE Standard Test Access Port Specification
(IEEE Std. 1149.1-1990).
EXTEST
The required EXTEST instruction places the IC into an external boundary-
test mode and selects the boundary-scan register to be connected between TDI
and TDO. During this instruction, the boundary-scan register is accessed to
drive test data off-chip via the boundary outputs and receive test data off-chip
via the boundary inputs. As such, the EXTEST instruction is the workhorse of
IEEE. Std 1149.1, providing for probe-less testing of solder-joint opens/shorts
and of logic cluster function.
IDCODE
The optional IDCODE instruction allows the IC to remain in its functional mode
and selects the optional device identification register to be connected between
TDI and TDO. The device identification register is a 32-bit shift register
containing information regarding the IC manufacturer, device type, and version
code. Accessing the device identification register does not interfere with the
operation of the IC. Also, access to the device identification register should be
immediately available, via a TAP data-scan operation, after power-up of the
IC or after the TAP has been reset using the optional TRST pin or by otherwise
moving to the Test-Logic-Reset state.
SAMPLE/PRELOAD
The required SAMPLE/PRELOAD instruction allows the IC to remain in a
normal functional mode and selects the boundary-scan register to be connected
between TDI and TDO. During this instruction, the boundary-scan register can
be accessed via a date scan operation, to take a sample of the functional data
entering and leaving the IC. This instruction is also used to preload test data
into the boundary-scan register before loading an EXTEST instruction.

HIGH-IMPEDANCE
The optional High-Impedance instruction sets all outputs (including two-state
as well as three-state types) of an IC to a disabled (high-impedance) state and
selects the one-bit bypass register to be connected between TDI and TDO.
During this instruction, data can be shifted through the bypass register from TDI
to TDO without affecting the condition of the IC outputs.
BYPASS
The required BYPASS instruction allows the IC to remain in a normal
functional mode and selects the one-bit bypass register to be connected
between TDI and TDO. The BYPASS instruction allows serial data to be
transferred through the IC from TDI to TDO without affecting the operation of
the IC.
