Abstract
A data processor for time division multiplex channels includes a group of storage means respective to the channels for storing program functions to be performed on the data of the respective channels, the storage means being formed as a circulating loop synchronized with the channel timing so that data and functions are available simultaneously. Entry for data from an additional processing means outside the time division multiplex channels is provided by gates controlled either by the additional processing means or by the mechanism for circulating the functions among the storage means.
