<p><b>New page</b></p><div>In [[telecommunications]], a '''variable length buffer'''<ref>{{FS1037C|article=variable length buffer|url=https://www.its.bldrdoc.gov/fs-1037/dir-039/_5763.htm}}</ref> or '''elastic buffer'''<ref>{{FS1037C|article=elastic buffer|url=https://www.its.bldrdoc.gov/fs-1037/dir-013/_1918.htm}}</ref> is a [[Buffer (telecommunication)|buffer]] into which [[data]] may be entered at one rate and removed at another rate without changing the data [[sequence]]. <br />
<br />
Most [[fIFO (computing and electronics)|first-in first-out]] (FIFO) [[data storage device| storage devices]] are variable-length buffers in that the input rate may be variable while the [[Output (computing)|output]] rate is constant or the output rate may be variable while the input rate is constant. Various clocking and control systems are used to allow control of [[buffer underflow|underflow]] or [[buffer overflow|overflow]] conditions.<br />
