Patent attributes
The present invention discloses a data output dispatching device and method capable of reducing the probability of packets from the same queue being transmitted sequentially. An embodiment of the method comprises the following steps: providing a plurality of buffers capable of storing the data of Q queues respectively while each queue is associated with a weighting and the sum Ws of all the weightings is between 2(M−1) and 2M and not greater than a maximum sum in which Q is an integer greater than 1, M is a positive integer and N is an integer not less than M; providing a binary bit reverse count value not greater than 2N; and assigning a token to one of the Q queues for data output according to the reverse count value.
