Abstract
A high speed parser containing a content addressable memory (CAM) providing select values to multiplexers. The CAM is programmed to implement search rules which examine input data for specific semantics according to a protocol, and outputs the specific bit positions at which the corresponding desired data units are present. The outputs are provided to multiplexers to cause the desired data units to be selected on the corresponding output paths of the multiplexors.
