Abstract

Abstract The pulse insertion circuit comprises a series to parallel converter (6) converting a series of input data to two parallel input data having a half clock frequency by distributing the series data alternately, a parallel type elastic memory (1) writing or reading the two parallel input data synchronously, a delay circuit (2) delaying one of the two parallel input data, a selector (3) selecting two data for two outputs from the two parallel input data and the delayed data, a control circuit (4) stopping a read clock signal of the elastic memory (1) for one clock period, and a pulse addition circuit (5) adding a pulse to the parallel data upon receipt of a pulse insertion request signal when the delayed data is selected or the read clock signal is stopped. By using this pulse insertion circuit, a pulse insertion necessary for multiplexing can be carried out with a circuitry adapted to operate at a half of a frequency of the series input data.
