Apparatus for decoding code words

Abstract

Abstract The apparatus is used for decoding codewords which are periodically inserted into a bit stream for controlling a system. To distinguish the codewords from the remaining data words in the bit stream, a selection circuit (FS) is present which responds to every cyclic exchange of one and the same codeword and, following this, outputs a coincidence signal (g) which is supplied to a trigger circuit (TRG) which is used for controlling the system. The selection circuit (FS) exhibits a read-only memory circuit (PRS), the input of which is connected to the parallel outputs (Q1, Q2,...Qn) of a shift register (SR) and the output of which is connected to the data inputs (D1, D2,...Dm) of a comparator (K) which is connected via further inputs (M1, M2,...Mm) to the parallel outputs of a computer (C) and outputs the coincidence signal (g). <IMAGE>
