The SN74ACT7814-40DLR from Texas Instruments is an asynchronous FIFO (First-In, First-Out) memory chip, specifically designed to handle data flow issues in electronic systems. It features a storage capacity of 1.125K bits organized as 64 words of 18 bits each. This uni-directional FIFO operates at a clock frequency of up to 25MHz with a data access delay of 20ns, making it suitable for moderate speed data buffering tasks. The device supports a wide supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V and consumes a low quiescent current of 400µA. It is housed in a 56-lead Shrink Small Outline Package (SSOP), allowing for efficient use of space in circuit designs.
