FIFOs Parts Catalog

FIFOs stand for First in, First out, which is a method that relates to the manipulation and organization of data according to time and priority. As per the name, the queue processing technique is done in a first-come, first-serve behavior. The algorithm of the operating system marks each process with CPU time according to the order in which it is received. Each item is stored in a queue and the first one that is added, will be the first data to be removed. Synchronous FIFO uses the same clock for both reading and writing data. Asynchronous FIFO uses a separate clock for reading and a separate clock for writing.
