Synchronous FIFO for 5 V data-path buffering
The CY7C4225-15AC: Synchronous FIFO organized 1K x 18 bits, clocked at 66.7 MHz with 10 ns access time. Operates from 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply, rated 0°C to 70°C.
Where it fits — applications and environments
This FIFO sits between a data source (ADC, DSP, or parallel bus) and a processing element that cannot tolerate back-pressure. Typical use cases include rate-matching between asynchronous clock domains, temporary storage in data acquisition front-ends, and elastic buffering in telecom line cards. The 64-LQFP package is surface-mount, so rework requires hot-air or reflow; no socket option for prototyping.
