FIFO Almost Full/Empty Flag Offset Range
The offset ranges for Almost Empty and Almost Full are listed in
.
The Almost Full and Almost Empty offsets are usually set to a small value of less than 10
to provide a warning that the FIFO is about to reach its limits. Since the full capacity of any
FIFO is normally not critical, most applications use the ALMOST_FULL flag not only as a
warning but also as a signal to stop writing.

Notes:
1. ALMOST_EMPTY_OFFSET and ALMOST_FULL_OFFSET for any design must be less than the total
FIFO depth.
