1. Almost Full Offset programmed for 5 40-bit words (aempty_offset = 17’h00004)

A B C D
A Event : Finish writing 2049 words to the FIFO.
Event : The almost_full flag is asserted.
Event : The full flag is asserted four write cycles after almost_full flag is asserted (assuming no reads).
Event : The write_err flag is asserted one wrclk cycle after attempting to write a full FIFO.

A Event : In process of writing 2050 (wrd 0 through wrd 2049) words to the FIFO.
Event : The 2049th (wrd 2048) word is written to the FIFO. The first word (wrd 0) is overwritten
B
4. write_width = 40 and read_width = 40, implying a maximum FIFO depth of 2048 locations
by the 2049th word since en_wr_when_empty = 1’b1 and the maximum depth of the
FIFO is 2048 words.
5. After the FIFO was reset, a sequence of 2049 writes (wrd 0 through wrd 2048) to the FIFO occurs.

D Event : Begin reading FIFO from location 0.

Event : The 2050th (wrd 2049) word is written to the FIFO. The second word (wrd 1) is overwritten C
by the 2050th word.
E Event : First word read is wrd 2048 that overwrote wrd 0.
Event : Third word read is wrd 3.
F Event : Second word read is wrd 2049 that overwrote wrd 1.
