Abstract

The present invention comprises a circuit for providing both B8ZS and B6ZS coding and decoding selectably with a single circuit. A rate control signal can, in preferred embodiment, be utilized to select the desired line code in a application dependent manner. Advantage is taken of the fact that there is a commonality in B8ZS and B6ZS code patterns in the last five bits of the codes, with the difference being the number of logic "zeros" before the first bit of coding.
