High rate multiplexer

摘要

A high rate multiplexing system which is capable of operating on multiple channels while ensuring synchronization of the system operation. The system includes a basic timing network for synchronizing the system operation. Automatic phase adjusters are used to re-align data signals with a clock signal whenever data transitions occur while the data is being sampled. Synchronizing circuits are used to insert synchronization data bits into the multiplexed data streams where appropriate. A medium rate multiplexer generates two different data streams, certain clock signals and strobe signals. A higher rate multiplexer is capable of operation in different modes, including but not limited to wideband operation or narrow band operation. A Manchester encoder combines data output signals into a single aggregate data stream.
