Abstract: | We mitigate the effects of intersymbol interference by employing a variable threshold inverter as an equalizer and operate the bus at rates beyond the rate governed by RC delay of the interconnect. We demonstrate even higher speeds by combining equalization with crosstalk avoidance coding. Simulation results for a 10-mm 32-bit bus in 0.13-mum CMOS technology show that 1.28x speed-up is achievable by equalization alone and 2.30x speed-up is achievable by joint equalization and coding. |
