    Abstract: Integrated circuit devices that operate in different modes. In a low data rate mode, data is transferred between the integrated circuit devices at a low data rate, or no data is transferred at all. In a high data rate mode, data is transferred between integrated circuit devices at a high data rate. A transition mode facilitates the transition from the low data rate mode to the high data rate mode. During the transition mode data is transferred between the integrated circuit devices at an intermediate data rate greater than the low data rate but lower than the high data rate. Also during the transition mode, parameters affecting the transmission of data between the integrated circuit devices are calibrated at the high data rate.

    Abstract: A data system permits bus encoding based on frequency of the bus and the frequency of switching on the bus so as to avoid undesirable frequency conditions such as a resonant condition or interference with other electrical devices. Transmission frequencies along one or more busses are monitored and used to control the encoding process, for example, an encoding process based on data bus inversion (DBI). The use of both a measure of an absolute number of logic levels ("DBI_DC") and a measure of a number of logic level transitions relative to a prior signal ("DBI_AC") provides a measure of control that may be used to compensate for both main and predriver switching noise.

    Abstract translation: 数据系统允许基于总线的频率和总线上的切换频率的总线编码,以避免不期望的频率条件,例如谐振条件或与其他电气设备的干扰。 监视一个或多个总线的传输频率并用于控制编码过程,例如,基于数据总线反转(DBI)的编码处理。 使用绝对数量逻辑电平(“DBI_DC”)的度量和相对于先前信号(“DBI_AC”)的逻辑电平转换的数量的度量提供了可用于补偿 主要和预先切换的开关噪声。

    Abstract: Embodiments of a system that communicates bidirectional data between two devices via shared links is described. In this system, data is transmitted on the shared links by one of the devices using single-ended drivers, and corresponding symbols are received on the shared links by the other device using differential comparison circuits. The data may be encoded as a series of parallel codewords prior to transmission. Each shared link may communicate a respective symbol in each codeword, which can have one of two possible logical values (e.g., a logic 0 or a logic 1). The corresponding symbols received by the other device may comprise a parallel symbol set, and each of the differential comparison circuits may compare symbols received on pairs of the shared links. A decoder in the other device may decode a respective parallel symbol set from the outputs of the differential comparison circuits to recover the encoded data.

    Abstract: Described is a communication system in a first integrated circuit (IC) communicates with a second IC via single-ended communication channels. A bidirectional reference channel extends between the first and second ICs and is terminated on both ends. The termination impedances at each end of the reference channel support different modes for communicating signals in different directions. The termination impedances for the reference channel can be optimized for each signaling direction.

    Abstract: Embodiments of a device that receives and decodes a series of parallel symbol sets over a series of time intervals is described. In this device, symbols in a respective parallel symbol set are received on nodes. Each node receives a respective symbol, which can have one of two possible logical values ( e.g ., a logic 0 or a logic 1). Differential amplifiers in the device provide primary comparison results, each of which compares symbols received on pairs of the links, and generation circuits in the device provide secondary comparison results from the primary comparison results. A decoder in the device decodes a respective parallel symbol set from the primary and secondary comparison results to recover encoded data.
