  • Patent number: 5150066
    Abstract: A programmable digital signal delay device for delaying a digital serial input signal SIN by a period .tau.=M.H. (where M is an integer H is the bit rate) and transforms SIN into a delayed output signal SOUT having the same bit rate, the number M being programmable in steps. The device includes an input register (4), a RAM (6) whose r bit locations contain p bits, an output register (8) and means for controlling the RAM which are formed by a decoder (11) which receives the number M, a cyclic counter (12) which receives a programming number N (or n) from the decoder whereby it cyclically addresses the RAM, and a sequencer (13) which supplies the RAM with the write and read control signals.
