Abstract
A bit collation method is disclosed which requires a substantially fewer number of clock cycles than the prior art method in separating the bits in a source of bytes and collating them by bit position. A static look-up table is used to spread out the bits in a byte being collated. The look-up table enables simultaneous collation of all bits in a byte using only five clock cycles.
