Generic FIFOs
=============
Status
------
All FIFOs that are release are done. They have been simulated
and most of them have been used in one way or another in one
of my projects. Some have been verified in real hardware.
There probably will be several more flavors of FIFOs released
in the future.
Test Bench
----------
I have included a very basic test bench. It should be viewed
as a starting point to write a more comprehensive and complete
test bench.
Documentation
-------------
There is nothing beyond this README file and the headers in
each of the modules. I hope that information will be sufficient.
This first release has 3 different FIFOs:
- generic_fifo_sc_a.v
- generic_fifo_sc_b.v
- generic_fifo_dc.v
The first two (generic_fifo_sc_a.v and generic_fifo_sc_b.v)
are essentially equivalent functionality wise. Some internal
are different implemented between the two. Both are single
clock FIFOs (sc), with same input port and output port widths.
The third FIFO, is a dual clock fifo. Read and Write ports have
independent clocks. Otherwise it is similar in functionality
to the single clock FIFOs.
FIFO depth and width are parameterized.
Again, check the headers of each of the FIFOs for more information.
