ABSTRACT:
An improved type of application-specific integrated circuit block (ASIC) is disclosed that is optimized for use in a communications system, and is somewhat programmble through the use of particular data objects that can specify an instruction and operand for the ASIC. The ASIC can be multi-tasking to perform multiple receive or transmit operations, two different kinds of transmit or receive operations, and operaions for mulitple ports. The ASIC generally uses an input data decoder block for decoding an input data object; a computation logic block for performing application specific computations in connection with the input data object, and an output data encoder block for encoding an output data object based on the specific computations. Using a common memory, a set of such ASICs can be arranged in a form of logical (or logical hybrid) pipeline.
