Abstract

A configurable code generator system (CGS) for spread spectrum applications is disclosed herein. The CGS includes a composite code generator unit (CGU), a global code generator, and an interface that is coupled to the composite code generator and the global code generator. The CGU has multiple independent code generators, each capable of generating an independent code sequence. The global code generator provides a global code sequence for synchronization. The interface has memory that stores at least one bit of the global sequence and at least one bit from at least one of the independent code sequences of the CGU from which an output conditioning circuit can selectively choose based on a desired communication protocol.
