Abstract
Resizing circuitry comprises at least one buffer having buffer entries each corresponding to one of at least two shift registers, each shift register comprising storage circuits connected in a ring to transfer a token bit between storage circuits. Selection circuitry controls, based on the shift registers, writing of data sections of input data units having a first number of data sections to the buffer(s), to form output data units having a second number of data sections. For a given buffer entry corresponding to a given shift register, depending on whether the token bit is stored in a first or second subset of storage circuits, the selection circuitry controls writing of a selected data section of a received input data unit to the given buffer entry or prevents overwriting of the given buffer entry. At least two of the shift registers have different relative arrangements of the first and second subsets of storage circuits.
