Abstract
A method and circuit for fast flag generation. The circuit is coupled to receive data to be shifted, the data including a first plurality of bits. A shift count value (including a second plurality of bits) is also received by the circuit, as well as an indication of a direction the data is to be shifted. Based on the shift count value and the indication of direction, the position of a bit within the data is determined. The bit is then output as a flag bit.
