Hello mailing list,
 
As we all know, the data entering a transputer (or another
transputer link compatible device) via a link, is not
synchronized with the internal clock of that device. The
device has to synchronize the incoming data with its
internal clock before these data can be processed.
 
For the design of an IC with transputer link compatible
inputs, we would like to know how this problem is solved in
the hardware of a transputer, or how people think that this
problem is solved or could be solved. We think that we have
found a good solution, which can be implemented easily.
However some other opinions about this topic would be
welcome. Of course we would be glad to discuss our solution
with interested people.
 
Thanks in advance, Jaap.
