Abstract
A circuit includes a data register configured to receive a signal including a plurality of data elements, a first selection circuit coupled to the data register, a counter, a second selection circuit coupled to the counter, and an inverter coupled between the counter and the second selection circuit. The data register outputs a plurality of bits of each data element to the first selection circuit, the counter and the inverter generate complementary signals in which sequential data elements have cyclical values that step in opposite directions, the second selection circuit alternatively outputs each of the complementary signals as a selection signal to the first selection circuit, and the first selection circuit, responsive to the selection signal, outputs the pluralities of bits of the data elements in alternating sequential orders.
