ABSTRACT:
An interconnection device (300) with a number of links (306, 308, 310, 312and314), each link having a number of link input ports (302), link output ports (304) and storage registers (316). An input selection switch (402) is coupled to a selected link input port to receive an input data token. The storage registers (316) may be used to store input data tokens. A storage access switch (404) is coupled to the input selection switch (402) and to the storage registers (316) and may be used to select the current input data token or a token from the storage registers as an output data token. An output selection switch (406) receives the output data token and provides it to a selected link output port. The interconnection device may, for example, be used to connect the inputs and outputs of the processing elements of a vector processor or digital signal processor.
