ABSTRACT:
A system, method, apparatus, means, and computer program code that facilitate conversion of a single data stream into two or more data streams (e.g., a down rate conversion) and for systems, means and that facilitate conversion of two or more input data streams into a single output data stream (e.g., an up rate conversion). According to some embodiments of the present invention, for an up rate conversion of two or more input data streams into a single output data stream, bits from the input data stream are shifted through a set of shift register elements or other storage positions on each clock cycle, but bits are only loaded into shift register elements on every other clock cycle. In contrast, according to some embodiments of the present invention, for a down rate conversion of a single input data stream into two or more separate output data streams, bits from the input data stream are loaded into pairs of shift register elements or other storage positions on each clock cycle, but are shifted through the shift register elements only on every other clock cycle.
