Abstract
The present disclosure pertains to a programmable data width converter device, system and method thereof. Programmable data width converter (pDWC) of the present disclosure can include a control Finite State Machine (FSM) that is configured to receive input values of m and n, and control any or a combination of L (Load Control Signal), S (Shift Control Signal), LL (Load Location Control Signal), and p (programmable shift value) based on the received values of m and n; and a loadable programmable shift register with programmable load location (pSRL) operatively coupled with the control FSM, wherein the pSRL is configured to perform loading and shifting functions based on the L, S, LL, and p values loaded by the control FSM. The pDWC can be configured to programmably convert width of m k-bit word input to n k-bit word output, and wherein 1≤m≤M and 1≤n≤N.
