Abstract
A detector compares a first bit of a bit stream to a first bit of a pattern. If the first bit of the bit stream and the first bit of the pattern are the same, another detector is allowed to read a second bit of the bit stream and compare it to a second bit of the pattern. This continues until all bits of the pattern are detected. By performing the comparison as each bit of the bit stream arrives on a node, the present detectors are able to detect bit patterns in high-speed bit streams.
