  • System for combining data packets from multiple serial data streams to provide a single serial data output and method therefor
    Patent number: 5764642
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a system that can combine data packets from two serial data streams to provide a single uncorrupted serial data output. The system is comprised of an internal data source and an external data source which each generates serial bit packets containing system information. The outputs of both the internal and external sources are coupled to a packet arbiter which combines the serial bit packet from the internal data source with the serial bit packet from the external data source to form an uncorrupted combined serial data output stream.
