Functional Description
RAM interface. Registered inputs provide minimal set-up and hold times
on address, data, and all critical control inputs. All internal registers are
clocked on the rising edge of the clock signal, however, the self-timed
internal write pulse width is independent of the cycle time.

the operation of the address counters for fast interleaved
memory applications.

or 1FFFE for IDT70T3799M). The message (72 bits) at 3FFFE or 3FFFF
(1FFFF or 1FFFE for 70T3799M) is user-defined since it is an addres-
sable SRAM location. If the interrupt function is not used, address locations
3FFFE and 3FFFF (1FFFF or 1FFFE for IDT70T3799M) are not used
as mail boxes, but as part of the random access memory. Refer to Truth
Table III for the interrupt operation.
Collision Detection
resulting in the potential for either reading or writing incorrect data to a
specific address. For the specific cases: (a) Both ports reading - no data
is corrupted, lost, or incorrectly output, so no collision flag is output on either
port. (b) One port writing, the other port reading - the end result of the write
will still be valid. However, the reading port might capture data that is in
a state of transition and hence the reading port’s collision flag is output. (c)
Both ports writing - there is a risk that the two ports will interfere with each
other, and the data stored in memory will not be a valid write from either
port (it may essentially be a random combination of the two). Therefore,
the collision flag is output on both ports. Please refer to Truth Table IV for
all of the above cases.
of the affected port following the collision, and remains low for one cycle.
Please refer to Collision Detection Timing table on Page 19. During that
next cycle, the internal arbitration is engaged in resetting the alert flag (this
avoids a specific requirement on the part of the user to reset the alert flag).
If two collisions occur on subsequent clock cycles, the second collision may
not generate the appropriate alert flag. A third collision will generate the

on both ports with the same starting address on both ports and one or both
ports writing during each access (i.e., imposes a long string of collisions
on contiguous clock cycles), the alert flag will be asserted and cleared

advance in functionality over current sync multi-ports, which have no such
capability. In addition to this functionality the IDT70T3719/99M sustains
the key features of bandwidth and flexibility. The collision detection function
is very useful in the case of bursting data, or a string of accesses made to
sequential addresses, in that it indicates a problem within the burst, giving
the user the option of either repeating the burst or continuing to watch the
alert flag to see whether the number of collisions increases above an
acceptable threshold value. Offering this function on chip also allows users
to reduce their need for arbitration circuits, typically done in CPLD’s or
FPGA’s. This reduces board space and design complexity, and gives the
user more flexibility in developing a solution.

and active high. During normal operation, the ZZ pin is pulled low. When
ZZ is pulled high, the port will enter sleep mode where it will meet lowest
possible power conditions. The sleep mode timing diagram shows the
