  • Abstract
    We have experimentally confirmed the theoretically predicted results of -50% noise reduction and -18% power reduction in an LSI interface. With a newly developed analog-MV circuit, delay time in encoding is less than 1-ns (>1 GHz), and layout-area for an 86 to 96 codec is 0.063 mm/sup 2/ in a 0.5 um process. Use of a "low-weight coding scheme" with our developed analog-MV circuits appears to be a promising approach to the achievement of GHz-class VLSI interfaces.
