Abstract
A content addressable memory ('CAM') field enabling logic comprises fields and field enable logics. The fields each have local match lines and a corresponding field enable control for enabling the respective field. The field enable logics are serially connected. Each of the fields is coupled to a corresponding one of the field enable logics via the respective local match lines. The corresponding field enable control for each of the fields is coupled to the corresponding one of the field enable logic and to any ones of the field enable logics that come after the corresponding one of the field enable logic along the serially-connected field enable logics.
