Abstract

Inductive and capacitive coupling are responsible for slowing down signals. Existing bus encoding techniques tackle the issue by avoiding certain types of transitions. This work proposes a codeword generation method for such techniques that is scalable to very wide buses. Experimentation on a recent encoding technique confirms that the conventional method is limited to 16-bit bus while the proposed method is easily extended beyond 128-bits.
