A plurality of groups of first flip-flops (groupof flip-flops A&#x2013;An&#x2212;1 for each of channels CIA&#x2013;CIC) store input data clocked in response to first clock signals (A&#x2013;C). First enable signals (Stack_en) are generated for each group of first flip-flops. A plurality of groups of second flip-flops (groupof flip-flops B&#x2013;Bn for each of channels CIA&#x2013;CIC) store the input data from the first flip-flops in response to the first enable signals and first clock signals. A second enable signal (Slide_en) is generated in response to a second clock signal (D) and the first enable signal. A plurality of groups of third flip-flops (groupfor each of channels CIA&#x2013;CIC) store the data in response to the second enable signal and second clock signal. The data is transmitted in serial form at the rate of the second clock signal.

Communication clocking conversion techniques

A method and system for identifying a bit pattern in a data stream including a plurality of bits each having a first or second state, the method includes identifying a number of mismatching bits, within a subset of the plurality of bits, having the first state and corresponding to a bit having the second state within the pattern; identifying a number of bits in the subset having the first state; and, identifying a number of bits in the pattern having the second state. A number of matches of between the subset and the pattern is dependent on the identified number of mismatching bits, the identified number of bits in the subset having the first state and the identified number of bits in the pattern having the second state.

Method and device for performing data pattern matching

A plurality of groups of first flip-flops (groupof flip-flops A-An&#x2212;1 for each of channels CIA-CIC) store input data clocked in response to first clock signals (A-C). First enable signals (Stack_en) are generated for each group of first flip-flops. A plurality of groups of second flip-flops (groupof flip-flops B-Bn for each of channels CIA-CIC) store the input data from the first flip-flops in response to the first enable signals and first clock signals. A second enable signal (Slide_en) is generated in response to a second clock signal (D) and the first enable signal. A plurality of groups of third flip-flops (groupfor each of channels CIA-CIC) store the data in response to the second enable signal and second clock signal. The data is transmitted in serial form at the rate of the second clock signal.
