    Abstract: System, methods and apparatus are described that facilitate transmission of data over a multi-wire data communications link, particularly between two devices within an electronic apparatus. A sequence of data bits is converted into M transition numbers, which are then converted into a sequence of symbols. The sequence of symbols is transmitted received over N wires. A clock signal may be effectively embedded in the transmission of the sequence of symbols. Each of the sequence of symbols may be selected based on a corresponding one of the M transition numbers and a value of a preceding one of the sequence of symbols.

    Abstract: System, methods and apparatus are described that offer improved performance of a serial bus used for Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) and/or camera control interface (CCI) operations. Other described devices may be configured as a bus master or as a slave. In one method, a transmitter may generate a transition number from a set of bits, convert the transition number into a sequence of symbols, and transmit the sequence of symbols in the signaling state of a two-wire serial bus. Timing information may be encoded in the transitions between symbols of consecutive pairs of symbols in the sequence of symbols. For example, each transition may cause a change in the signaling state of at least one wire of the two-wire serial bus. A receiver may derive a receive clock from the transitions in order to receive and decode the sequence of symbols.

    Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product are described. The apparatus generates a receive clock signal for receiving data from a multi-wire open-drain link by determining a transition in a signal received from the multi-wire open-drain link, generating a clock pulse responsive to the transition, delaying the clock pulse by a preconfigured first interval if the transition is in a first direction, and delaying the clock by a preconfigured second interval if the transition is in a second direction. The preconfigured first and/or second intervals are configured based on a rise time and/or a fall time associated with the communication interface and may be calibrated by measuring respective delays associated with clock pulses generated for first and second calibration transitions.

    Abstract: A method for performing multi-wire signaling encoding is provided in which a clock signal is encoded within symbol transitions. A sequence of data bits is converted into a plurality of m transition numbers. Each transition number is converted into a sequential symbol number from a set of sequential symbol numbers. The sequential symbol number is converted into a raw symbol that can be transmitted over a plurality of differential drivers. The raw symbol is transmitted spread over a plurality of n wires, wherein the clock signal is effectively embedded in the transmission of raw symbols since the conversion from transition number into a sequential symbol number guarantees that no two consecutive raw symbols are the same. The raw symbol is guaranteed to have a non-zero differential voltage across all pairs of the plurality of n wires.
