GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The LANCAM consists of various depths of 64-bit Content Addressable Memories (CAMs), wi.
Features
* allow all operations to be masked on a bit-by-bit basis
* Powerful, LANCAM A/L compatible instruction set
mfor any list processing need o
* Shiftable Comparand and Mask registers assist in
proximate matching algorithms
. c
* Cascadable to any practical length with no performance
Applications
* in LAN switches and routers. The LANCAMs are also well suited to encryption, database accelerators, and image processing. OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW
To use the LANCAM, the user loads the data into the Comparand register, which is automatically compared to all valid CAM locations. The device then indicate
