ABSTRACT:
An electronic circuit can eliminate bubble errors by means of transferring a thermal code from spatial domain to time domain, and then from the time domain to the spatial domain. In accordance with the present invention, a rotator and a shift register are used to implement the circuit. The rotator is utilized to convert the data bits of the thermal code available in parallel into a serial thermal code. In other words, the data bits can be read serially at the output of the rotator. However, the serial thermal code is applied to the shift register for removing the bubble errors in response to the logic state in the serial thermal code and converting the serial thermal code into a corrected thermal code in parallel form. Accordingly, the electronic circuit for removing bubble errors according to the present can eliminate bubble errors occurring in the thermal code even if the bubbles occur randomly.
