Abstract
Techniques for converting input data from a multiplicity of sources that are mutually asynchronous, to a single, common synchronous format for local processing by an information processor. Logical operations are described which control first-in-first-out (“FIFO”) buffers to align all inputs to a predetermined point in the data flow or processing sequence, and which maintain clock-by-clock alignment of the input data sequences for an indefinite period of time thereafter.
