Abstract:
A device for equalizing data delays in a plurality of serial input data streams which exhibit at least one predetermined code word in a time-division multiplex system, comprising:a plurality of serial/parallel converters for converting the plurality of serial input data streams into a plurality of parallel input data streams including data word level addresses; a plurality of data word synchronization units for synchronizing the plurality of parallel input data streams at a data word level into a plurality of synchronized parallel input data streams, the synchronizing at the data word level representing, separately for each of the plurality of parallel input data streams an insertion/discarding of the at least one predetermined code word into the plurality of parallel input data streams; a plurality of storage devices for temporarily storing the parallel input data streams synchronized at the data word level; and a plurality of parallel/serial converters for synchronous reading-out of the synchronized parallel input data streams stored in the plurality of storage devices and for converting the synchronized parallel input data streams into a plurality of serial output data streams.
