FIFOs memory devices are used for short-term storage of digital information, with the retrieval of information occurring in the same order and sequence that the information was stored. Also called queue or buffer memories, they are commonly used for the exchange of information between separate devices, particularly in cases where data is generated and consumed at different rates or at slightly different points in time.
