    Abstract: A data transmission device includes a de-interleaver configured to receive, from a host device at a first data rate, a data stream including encoded data, de-interleave the data stream into a plurality of forward error correction (FEC) data streams, and output the plurality of FEC data streams at a second data rate less than the first data rate. Each of a plurality of interleavers is configured to interleave a respective one of the plurality of FEC data streams into an intermediate data stream including first data blocks and second data blocks. An encoder module configured to generate, for each of the intermediate data streams, FEC blocks including a first parity section and a first data section, the first parity section including a first parity bit corresponding to the first data blocks and a second parity bit corresponding to the second data blocks, and the first data section including the first data blocks and the second data blocks, and output the FEC blocks at the second data rate.

    Abstract: Embodiments address optimization of an electrical interface between an optical host device and an optical module device at installation time. Certain methods try each entry in a set of Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter settings at the host transmitter, while asking the module to measure the signal integrity for each. The module will then provide an indication of which entry was the best choice for signal integrity in the current hardware configuration. Note that for the module to host electrical interface, this same technique can be used in reverse, whereby the host asks the module to configure its transmitting FIR filter, and the host records and keeps track of which filter setting is the best, and then configures the module with that filter setting. In both cases, for modules supporting CMIS (Common Management Interface Specification) for module configuration and control, methods are provided.

    Abstract: A multi-lane integrated circuit transceiver device includes first and second integrated circuit dies having respective first and second pluralities of transmit block/receive block pairs. Each respective transmit block and each respective receive block in the first plurality of block pairs on the first die and the second plurality of block pairs on the second die includes respective digital clock generation circuitry. The device further includes digital clock distribution circuitry to distribute a digital clock signal output by one respective receive block, in one of the first and second pluralities of block pairs, to the transmit blocks in both of the pluralities of block pairs, for use as a baseline clock by the respective digital clock generation circuitry in each of the transmit blocks in both of the pluralities of block pairs. Where each plurality includes N block pairs, the two dies together form a single 2N-lane device.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to data communication systems and methods thereof. More specifically, embodiments of the present invention provide a data transmission method. Data are encoded with staircase encoder, and staircase coded blocks are first interleaved then combined into outer code frames. Code frames additionally include sync words and padding bits. A second interleaving is applied to the bits of the code frames, and Hamming encoding is performed on the output of the second interleaver. Hamming codewords are Gray-mapped to dual-polarized quadrature-amplitude-modulation (DP-QAM) symbols, and a third interleaving of the symbols from a set of successive Hamming codewords is performed. Pilot symbols are inserted periodically into the stream of DP-QAM symbols. There are other embodiments as well.
