Abstract :
A 20-data-channel transceiver with a control channel allows uncoded data transfer with 13 ns latency. A digital DLL with a ring-interpolator tracks phase with 20 ps resolution. A pre-emphasis driver enables 2 Gb/s transmission per channel over a 7 m cable at 1.5 V. The effective full-duplex bandwidth reaches 10 GB/s.
