Abstract
A circuit permits a user to present signals to control the flow of data from a first-type cell to a second-type cell. The circuit is susceptible to loading each cell individually, as well as loading cells by means of scanning input in a series through a low order cell to a higher order cell. The circuit may be copied as a series of cells wherein a bit held in each first-type cell is copied to the next higher second-type cell.
