A buffer circuit coupling an input bus having a first portion and a second portion to an output bus. Each of the first portion, the second portion, and the output bus carry data of a predetermined width. The buffer circuit comprises a first plurality of registers, a second plurality of registers, an unload counter, and a multiplexer. The first plurality of registers is coupled to store data from the first portion of the input bus. The second plurality of registers is coupled to store data from the second portion of the input bus and from a data order signal. The unload counter provides an unload count that selects one of the first plurality of registers and a corresponding one of the second plurality of registers. The multiplexer provides either the selected one of the first plurality of registers or the corresponding one of the second plurality of registers to the output bus. The multiplexer is responsive to the data order signal stored in the corresponding one of the second plurality of registers.
