Abstract :
A radical approach to high-speed on-chip communication between computational modules is proposed. Data communication is performed over multiple serial buses, where the time difference between events is used to encode and decode data on a number of wires. We present results obtained through a proof-of-concept implementation on FPGA and simulations on a 0.18mum technology
