<p>A method and apparatus for initializing a synchronizer is provided. The initialization circuitry includes a pattern generator (170) for generating an initialization pattern, a pattern detector (178a, 178b) for recognizing the initialization pattern, and a read select circuit (160). After recognition of an initialization pattern, the write pointer is set to a predetermined location in the data buffer of the synchronizer to be read. A predetermined number of cycles after receipt of a unique clock cycle identifier signal (the global frame clock) by the read select circuit, valid data in lockstep with other bitsliced interfaces can be read from the synchronizer. <IMAGE></p> |
