Abstract :
A new concept of micro-modem interface for reliable communications in networks on chip (NoC) is presented. The micro-modem addresses the major problems of sub-micron interconnect and contains techniques for reliability improvement. The architecture, data flow and components of the micro-modem are presented. Various techniques and processes are analyzed for compact on-chip implementation. Design and application considerations are discussed.
