Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and systems provide improved throughput on a communication link. An apparatus has a plurality of line drivers, a first wire state encoder configured to receive a first symbol in a sequence of symbols when a 3-wire link is in a first signaling state, and to define a second signaling state for the 3-wire link based on the first symbol and the first signaling state, a second wire state encoder configured to receive a second symbol in the sequence of symbols, and to define a third signaling state for the 3-wire link based on the second symbol and the second signaling state. The first symbol immediately precedes the second symbol in the sequence of symbols. The 3-wire link transitions from the first to the second signaling state, and from the second to the third signaling state in consecutive transmission intervals.

Abstract: A receiving apparatus includes a terminating network for a three-wire serial bus and a feedback circuit. Each wire of the three-wire serial bus may be coupled through a resistance to a common node of the terminating network. The feedback circuit has a first amplifier circuit having an input coupled to the common node, a comparator that receives an output of the first amplifier circuit as a first input and a reference voltage as a second input, and a second amplifier circuit responsive to an output of the comparator and configured to inject a current through the common node.

Abstract: System, methods and apparatus are described that support multimode operation of a data communication interface. An apparatus includes a physical layer interface coupled to a serial bus and configurable for a high-speed mode of communication and a low-speed mode of communication, and a rate detector configured to receive a clock signal from the serial bus, and to use a reference clock to determine a unit interval representative of a data rate of the serial bus. The apparatus may also include interval calculation logic configured to determine an interval related to timing of a data signal transmitted on the serial bus, the interval having a duration expressed as a number of cycles of the reference clock. The physical layer interface may be configured to use the interval to capture data in the data signal.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide a method for regulating an integration current of a sensing amplifier. The sensing amplifier includes a first input transistor and a second input transistor, wherein a source of the first input transistor and a source of the second input transistor are coupled to a source node. The method includes pulling a current from or sourcing the current to the source node, measuring the integration current, comparing the measured integration current with a reference signal, and adjusting the current pulled from or sourced to the source node based on the comparison.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and systems for communication over a multi-wire, multi-phase interface are disclosed. A clock recovery method includes generating a combination signal that includes transition pulses, each transition pulse being generated responsive to a transition in a difference signal representative of a difference in signaling state of a pair of wires in a three-wire bus. The combination signal is provided to a logic circuit that is configured to provide a clock signal as its output, where pulses in the combination signal cause the clock signal to be driven to a first state. The logic circuit receives a reset signal that is derived from the clock signal by delaying transitions to the first state while passing transitions from the first state without added delay. The clock signal is driven from the first state after passing a transition of the clock signal to the first state.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and systems for communication over a multi-wire, multi-phase interface are disclosed. A clock recovery apparatus has a plurality of pulse generating circuits, a logic circuit and a delay flipflop. Each pulse generating circuit generates transition pulses in response to transitions in one of three difference signals representative of a difference in signaling state of a pair of wires in a three-wire bus. Transitions in the difference signals can occur at boundaries between sequentially-transmitted symbols. The first logic circuit may provide a single pulse in a combination signal at each boundary between pairs of symbols by combining one or more transition pulses. The delay flipflop is configured to respond to each pulse in the combination signal by changing signaling state of a clock signal that is output by the clock recovery apparatus. The symbols may be sequentially transmitted over the three-wire bus in accordance with a C-PHY protocol.

Abstract: System, methods and apparatus are described that facilitate transmission of data, particularly between two devices within electronic equipment. Transmission lines are selectively terminated in an N-phase polarity encoded transmitter when the transmission lines would otherwise be undriven. Data is mapped to a sequence of symbols to be transmitted on a plurality of wires. The sequence of symbols is encoded in three signals. A first terminal of a plurality of terminals may be driven such that transistors are activated to couple the first terminal to first and second voltage levels. The first terminal may further be driven such that a dedicated transistor is activated to couple the first terminal to an intermediate voltage level.
