    Abstract: A bi-synchronous electronic device may include a FIFO memory circuit configured to store data, and a first digital circuit coupled to the FIFO memory circuit and configured to operate based upon a first clock signal and a write pointer, write a data burst to the FIFO memory circuit, thereby causing a jump in the write pointer to a new position, and write a burst indicator associated with the new position in the FIFO memory circuit. The bi-synchronous electronic device may include a second digital circuit coupled to the FIFO memory circuit and configured to operate based upon a second clock signal different from the first clock signal, read from the FIFO memory circuit based upon a read pointer, and synchronize the read pointer to the write pointer based upon the burst indicator.

    Abstract: A bi-synchronous electronic device may include a FIFO memory circuit, and a first digital circuit coupled to the FIFO memory circuit and configured to operate based upon a first clock signal, and write to the FIFO memory circuit based upon a write pointer. The bi-synchronous electronic device may include second digital circuit coupled to the FIFO memory circuit and configured to operate based upon a second clock signal different from the first clock signal, and read from the FIFO memory circuit based upon a read pointer. The FIFO memory circuit may be configured to detect a jump in the write pointer to a new position, determine jump candidates for the read pointer from a current position, select a jump candidate, and synchronize the read pointer based upon the selected jump candidate.

    Abstract: A buffer for ordering out-of-order data includes a memory with a plurality of memory locations for temporarily storing data and a detection circuit configured for generating a control signal when the memory locations contain valid data. The detection circuit includes a first block configured for generating validity signals that identify the memory locations containing valid data and a search circuit configured for determining a search pointer as a function of the validity signals. In the case where each memory location contains valid data, the search pointer indicates the last memory location. In the case where at least one memory location is still free, the search pointer indicates the first memory location that is free.

    Abstract: A circuit and method for performing a Binary-to-Gray conversion are disclosed. A first binary signal represents a target value and a second binary signal is stored in a register. A set of binary candidate values are determined where the respective Gray equivalent of each binary candidate value has a Hamming distance of one from the Gray equivalent of the second binary value. One of the binary candidate values is selected as a function of the first binary signal and the second binary signal. The selected binary candidate value is provided at input to the register. An encoded signal is generated by determining the Gray encoded equivalent of the selected binary candidate value.
