Problems solved by technology

[0005] Conventional SerDes have the following disadvantages: they use first-in-first-out (FIFO) circuits to span clock domains, thus requiring additional power and area; they use high-speed multiplexers to manage bit selection for output paths, which adds additional complexity to the waveform. asymmetry, or adding additional pipeline trigger latency

Abstract

A Serializer / Deserializer (100; 400) apparatus comprises a serializer (100; 400) adapted to take N parallel bits of data and shifts them out serially at N times a clock speed to a transmitter, a transmitter enable block (110, 120, 420) adapted to start the serializer means, and a count block (130; 430). The serializer comprises flip-flops and muxes, and is adapted to N parallel bits of data and shifts them out serially at N times a clock speed to a transmitter. The transmitter enable block (110, 120; 420) comprises an inverter and flip-flops, and is adapted to start the serializer. The count block may comprise a counter or an inverter, f lip-flops,, and a NOR gate, and is adapted to create a divided clock which programs data loading in the serializer.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of US Provisional Application No. 60 / 865,606, filed November 13, 2006, entitled "LOW LATENCY, LOWPOWER, FIFO INDEPENDENT, HIGH SPEED SERDE STRANSMITARCHITECTURE." This application is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] The present invention relates generally to communication systems and, more particularly, to serializer / serializer (SerDes) circuits for use in communication systems. Background technique [0004] Generally, the SerDes circuit is incorporated into an integrated circuit and operates at a high speed, and converts parallel data into serial data and serial data into parallel data. [0005] Conventional SerDes have the following disadvantages: they use first-in-first-out (FIFO) circuits to span clock domains, thus requiring additional power and area; they use high-speed multiplexers to manage bit selection for output paths, which adds ...
