Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure enable a universal router within a vehicle. The universal router includes a reception pipeline that ingests layer 2/layer 3 (L2/L3) communications associated with each L2/L3 communication protocol, extracts communication data from the L2/L3 communications and generates a Layer 4 and/or Layer 5 (L4/L5) data unit for each L2/L3 communication based on the communication data. A processor ingests the L4/L5 data units and generates transformed L4/L5 data units based on predefined rules. A router determines a destination interface associated with each transformed L4/L5 data unit based on the communication data and routes each transformed LA/L5 data unit to a transmission pipeline associated with each destination interface.

Abstract: An embodiment delay timer for timing a plurality of delays includes a delay clock comprising a number of clock memories, wherein the number of clock memories corresponds to a number of digit positions of a delay clock value, and a delay memory configured to store the plurality of delays. The delay timer further includes a delay logic unit configured to add a new delay by storing it in the delay memory and to time the new delay by coupling it to that clock memory which corresponds to the most significant digit position of the delay value of the new delay that is not zero, by subsequently coupling the new delay to that clock memory which corresponds to the next less significant digit position of the delay value according to the delay value of the new delay and by generating a delay signal when the new delay expires.
