Abstract
Methods, devices and systems are provided for word synchronizing multiple serial data bitstreams () with a serial framing signal (A). Offset values () are determined () from the relative locations of predetermined data correlation values () stored within the data buffers during a correlation mode to indicate the amount of skew observed between the framing channel and each of serial data channels. Data received during subsequent operation of each data stream is stored a buffer (), and the framing signal (A) is monitored to identify a boundary between data words. When a frame boundary occurs, parallel data is extracted from the buffer using the previously-stored offset values to compensate for bit skew between the data and framing channels.
