Abstract
A content addressable memory (CAM) (100) can include a CAM memory array (102) having both a data field (102-0) and a mask field (102-1). A multiplexer (MUX) (108) can selectively load data from either a register (104) or an external data input (106) to one or both fields (102-0 and 102-1) of CAM memory array (102).
