64×9 synchronous FIFO with 24 ns access time
The Texas Instruments SN74ALS2233AN is a synchronous FIFO memory organized 64 words by 9 bits, with a 24 ns access time. It belongs to the ALS logic family and is intended for high-speed data buffering in systems where the read and write clocks run independently. The 9-bit width accommodates an eighth bit plus a parity or control bit alongside the data byte.
Active lifecycle, RoHS non-compliant
However, it is RoHS non-compliant — the leads use a tin-lead finish. This matters for assembly lines that have transitioned to lead-free reflow profiles; verify your soldering process compatibility before committing the BOM line.
What the 24 ns access time means for your bus
The 24 ns access time sets the minimum read-clock period for zero-wait-state operation.
