Abstract

Disclosed is a method and circuit for generating an average binary code from at least two input binary codes. The circuit may be employed in an integrated circuit having first and second circuits for generating binary codes am-1:0 and bm-1:0, respectively. In one embodiment, the circuit asynchronously generates a binary code cm-1:0 representing an average of the binary codes am-1:0 and bm-1:0 generated by the first and second circuits, respectively.
