Title: Pausible bisynchronous FIFO

Abstract

A system, method, and computer program product are provided for a pausible bisynchronous FIFO. Data is written synchronously with a first clock signal of a first clock domain to an entry of a dual-port memory array and an increment signal is generated in the first clock domain. The increment signal is determined to transition near an edge of a second dock signal, where the second clock signal is a pausible clock signal. A next edge of the second clock signal of the second clock domain is delayed and the increment signal to the second clock domain and is transmitted.
