Abstract: A serial transceiver that includes programmable distributed data processing is provided. The serial transceiver can include an ingress channel that receives serial ingress data and an egress channel that transmits serial egress data. The serial transceiver can also include first and second layers that are one and another of a transport layer, a link layer, or a physical layer (PHY). The first and second layers can include elements that process the ingress data and the egress data. The serial transceiver can also include a programmable controller, a first interconnect that connects the programmable controller to the first layer, and a second interconnect that connects the programmable controller to the second layer. The programmable controller can send first data via the first interconnect to the first layer, and the first data can be processed by one of the first layer elements.
