Summary:A First In First Out (FIFO) communication buffer for receiving data from a source and distributing the data to a first sink and a second sink is disclosed. The FIFO communication buffer includes a FIFO memory and a FIFO control circuit. The FIFO memory includes a first data port, a second data port, and a third data port. The FIFO control circuit provides the first address, the second address and the third address. The FIFO control circuit increments the first address toward the second address and the third address when valid data is received, and increments the second address and the third address when data is read out.
