> First, The output from my Voice Recognition IC is 8 Seperate Bits. > How Do I get those 8 seperate bit-lines into one 8-bit Bus Do you mean a serial to parallel converter ? If so, maybe a 74164. You'll have to provide a clock or probably your chip has a data clock o/p. I have an audio DSP like this that stores data in DRAM. Count 8 bits going into the 74164 and then grab it -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The list server can filter out subtopics (like ads or off topics) for you. See http://www.piclist.com/#topics
