Abstract
A data shuffler of the pipeline type receives successive trains of n sequential data words and rearranges data words in each train according to a predetermined order. It comprises p (p.ltoreq.n) elementary processing units arranged in series. Each unit comprises an input, an output, a one-word storage register (20), a steering means (21) in order, in response to a binary control, to connect the input to the output either directly or through the register; and means for periodically supplying to each of the p steering means a sequence of n control bits determined as a function of said predetermined order.
