Abstract

A data transfer method is provided which includes: sending a stream of data elements from a source to a sink (controlled by a common clock); simultaneously with the sending of the data element stream, sending a first binary signal to the sink, where the first binary signal is low if a data element is to be ignored by the sink, and is otherwise high; simultaneously with the sending of data element stream, sending a second binary signal from the sink to the source, where the second binary signal is low if the data element is not accepted by the sink, and is otherwise high; and simultaneously with the sending of the data element stream, sending a third binary signal to the sink, where the third binary signal marks a beginning and an end of a logical group of data elements within the data element stream.
