Abstract
TDM circuitry that includes a rotary multiplexer and a memory circuit is provided. A first rotary multiplexer circuit may receive N-bit wide data in accordance to a time division multiple access (TDMA) scheme. The N-bit wide data includes multiple sets of M-bit wide data. The first rotary multiplexer may rotate these sets of the M-bit wide data. The memory circuit is coupled to the first rotary multiplexer circuit. The memory circuit stores each of rotated set of M-bit wide data. A second rotary multiplexer circuit may read k-th bits of the each of the stored M-bit wide data from the memory circuit and may rotate these k-th bits before outputting these k-th bits serially, where k is an integer having a value greater than 0.
