An electronic receiver for a digital communication system which eliminates cumulative jitter is comprised of an input circuit which receives a continuous series of bits, on an input terminal, at a receiver input bit rate. This series of bits consists of data bits in spaced apart data blocks, with respective headers that have a variable length and fill the space between the data blocks. Also, the receiver includes an output circuit, which is coupled to the input circuit. This output circuit sends selected bits from the data blocks, but not from the headers, to an output port at a receiver output bit rate which is slower than the receiver input bit rate. Further, the output circuit includes a closed loop feedback control circuit, which selects the receiver output bit rate, such that it is substantially constant and such that the selected bits from the data blocks occur on the output port as a continuous bit stream.
