Abstract:
Methods and apparatus relating to an adaptive termination scheme for a low power, high speed bus are described. In an embodiment, logic at least partially causes termination of a portion (e.g., one or more transmission lines) of an interconnect. The logic adaptively optimizes the number of lines that are to be terminated based on one or more operating conditions of the interconnect. Other embodiments are also disclosed.
Abstract:
Described is an apparatus which comprises: a pre-driver coupled to a transmitter, the transmitter having a differential output; and a tuning circuit operable to couple to the differential output to tune the pre-driver of the transmitter according to a common mode noise signature of a common mode signal derived from the differential output.
