ABSTRACT:
A first embodiment of a circuit configured to be coupled to a network controller and a network is disclosed. The first embodiment includes a first circuit configured to receive bits of data from the network at a first frequency. The first embodiment also includes a second circuit, coupled to the first circuit. The second circuit is configured to generate, to the network controller, a first signal synchronous with a second frequency when the first circuit receives a predetermined number of bits. In response to the first signal, the network controller is configured to latch, at a second frequency, the predetermined number of bits. A second embodiment of a circuit configured to be coupled to a network controller and to a network is provided. The second embodiment includes a first circuit configured to transmit bits of data (bits) to the network at a first frequency. The second embodiment includes a second circuit, coupled to the first circuit. The second circuit is configured to generate a first signal, synchronous with a second frequency, to the network controller when the first circuit transmitted to the network a predetermined number of bits. In response to the first signal, the network controller is configured to generate to the first circuit, at a second frequency, a number of bits equal to the predetermined number.
