ABSTRACT:
A synchronous apparatus synchronized to the operation of the slowest device is disclosed, comprising a plurality of devices such as first-in first-out buffer memories (FIFOs) connected to at least one synchronizing mechanism such as a full adder circuit. Each device generates a signal to indicating readiness to operate and a signal indicating completion of operation. Each device receives a signal causing the device to operate and a signal causing the device to stop operating. The synchronizing mechanism generates the operate signal upon sensing the readiness signals of all the devices and continues to generate the operate signal while at least one of the ready signals is sensed. The synchronizing mechanism generates the stop signal upon sensing the completion signal from all of the devices and continues to generate that signal while at least one of the completion signals is sensed.
