Abstract:
A plurality of transmission circuits transmit data over one or more output lines. A plurality of receiving circuits receive data over one or more of a set of input lines A plurality of parallel-serial conversion circuits coupled to the plurality of transmission circuits and to the plurality of receiving circuits, the plurality of conversion circuits to convert parallel signals to one or more sets of serial signals and to send the converted serial signals to one or more corresponding transmission circuits, and to receive one or more sets of serial signals from one or more of the receiving circuits and to convert the serial signals to parallel signals.
Abstract:
A serial data signal having a predetermined sequence to indicate a start of a frame of data is received. The serial data signal is compared to a plurality of values. The plurality of values include the predetermined sequence and one or more values representing logical rotations of the predetermined sequence. A match signal is generated in response to the serial data signal matching one of the plurality of values.
