Abstract
A signal display apparatus has a plurality of shift registers and a selecting circuit. The shift registers receives a first clock and the selecting circuit receives a selecting signal from a data flow according to a second clock, and output enabling signals to the shift registers according to the selecting signal. The shift registers selectively store data in the data flow according to the first clock in response to the enabling signals. The signal display apparatus and the method for storing data are capable of reducing the transfer time for a serial data single series signal to overcome the prior art shortcomings.
