A high data rate asynchronous bit-serial link for long-range on-chip communication is presented. The data bit cycle time is equal to a single gate delay, enabling 67Gbps throughput in 65nm technology. The serial link incurs lower power and area costs relative to bit-parallel communications, and enables higher tolerance to PVT variations relative to synchronous links. The link uses differential dual-rail level encoding (LEDR) and current mode signaling over a lowcrosstalk interconnect layout. Novel circuits used in the link are described, including a novel splitter shift register, a fast LEDR encoder, a high-speed toggle element, a channel driver with adaptive control and a differential channel receiver.
