Binary digital data signal patterns containing either no transitions, periodically recurring transitions or both are randomized by constructing a key signal from a summation of selected stored digits of the data pattern and combining such key signal with the data signal to form a scrambled line signal for transmission. The line signal so constructed is free of signal energy concentrated at particular frequencies and provides signal transitions adequate in number to assure reliable recovery of synchronization information. Descrambling of the received line signal is accomplished by precisely the inverse of the scrambling operation. The system is self-synchronizing because the key signals constructed by each of the scrambler and descrambler are derived from the same line signal.

A one-bit-out-of-n bit checking circuit is comprised of k serially connected detector levels. A first one of the detector levels accommodates n input signal lines and successively higher ones of the detector levels have one half the number of input signal lines as does the next lower detector level. Each detector level is comprised of a plurality of logic blocks with each logic block being connected to a separate pair of input signal lines. Each logic block in each level detects the presence of excitation signals on both input signal lines of the pair of input signal lines and generates an error signal in response thereto. Each logic block also detects the presence of an excitation signal on one input signal line of the pair of input signal lines and in response thereto propagates the excitation signal through successively higher detector levels to the k. sup. th detector level. The k. sup. th detector level generates an excitation signal output in response to the presence of an excitation signal on one and only one of the input signal lines applied to the k. sup. th level.
