Abstract
A method and apparatus for pipelining data is used in a synchronous integrated memory circuit in which a read cycle is initiated by a first clock received on a clock input. The data associated with the read cycle propagates asynchronously through the memory to produce data which is then input to the pipeline circuit. The apparatus includes steering circuitry with precise timing for steering the data produced in the read cycle into an asserted one of several branches of a register. Selection circuitry is used to select for output the data which has been stored in the asserted branch upon receipt of a subsequent clock. The subsequent clock is one which occurs a programmable number of clocks after the first clock.
