CY7C4245V-15ASC

4K x 18-Bit Low-Voltage Synchronous FIFO (First-In, First-Out) Memory manufactured by Cypress Semiconductor (Infineon). This high-speed volatile data-buffer substrate architecture provides exactly 73,728 bits of storage organized in a wide 18-bit format, engineered with a 15-nanosecond clock-to-data access time rating (signified by the "-15" suffix) and packaged inside a 32-pin thin quad flat pack (TQFP). It functions by using independent read and write clock lines to pass synchronous data blocks across separate clock domains smoothly without data collision, executing real-time overflow/underflow monitoring via internal full, empty, and programmable almost-full/almost-empty status flag latches. It saw prominent implementation as a high-speed data buffer between central processors and digital signal processing (DSP) pipelines, network line interface cards, high-definition video frame capture nodes, and high-speed medical imaging equipment.
