ABSTRACT:
A serial-to-parallel converter receives serial data bits forming serial input words and serial word synchronizing pulses indicating the length of the serial input words. A parallel clock signal is generated synchronously with an integer number of serial word synchronizing pulses. The input data is sequentially supplied via a direct data path to an output storage means. A synchronous counter counts the received consecutive serial data bits and in response to each count a decoder sequentially enables one respective output storage means to store therein one data bit. The stored data is released simultaneously from the output storage means in form of a parallel word in response to the parallel clock signal. Means for changing the length of the parallel output word are provided.
