Abstract: Methods, systems are provided for reconfiguring the position of a first tap in a descrambler circuit LFSR after the LFSR has been trained and synchronized with a corresponding scrambler circuit LFSR. A data path from the second tap position to the descrambler output by-passes logic elements located in the data path from the first tap to the descrambler output, thereby reducing delay in the descrambler circuit after the reconfiguration (i.e., the “lock-shift” operation). The tap position change may be communicated by a mode manager to a corresponding scrambler circuit, for applying a matching reconfiguration in the scrambler circuit, either directly via an I/O line or indirectly. The indirect route includes in-band transmissions between two ICs with two sets of self-synchronizing scrambler/descrambler pairs, and is based on monitored receiver LFSR output signals that indicate when a scrambler/descrambler pair is synchronized or whether the output of a descrambler circuit comprises descrambled data.

Abstract: Disclosed herein include systems, machines, devices, and methods for single-pass methylation mapping. C-to-T converted sequence reads and G-to-A converted sequence reads generated from a sample subjected to a methylation assay can be mapped to a mapping reference sequence comprising a C-to-T converted reference sequence and a G-to-A converted reference sequence generated to a reference genome sequence. The counts of Cs and Ts of sequence reads mapped to each of one or more positions with Cs in the reference genome sequence can be used to determine whether the position is a methylated C or an unmethylated C in the sample.
