FIFO
Printfirst-in first-out memory buffer. A data buffering technique that functions like a shift register where the oldest values (first in) come out first. Many DAQ products and instruments use FIFO's to buffer digital data from an A/D converter, or to buffer the data before or after bus transmission.
