A popular means of reducing size and cost for any embedded design is to use a communication bus with fewer I/O pins. Moving from a parallel bus to a serial bus provides significant size and cost ...

Octal flash memory, or octal data transfer interface, utilizes eight data lines for input and output operations, resulting in significantly higher data transfer rates compared to serial, dual, and ...

For more than 20 years, the parallel bus interface has been the mainstream storage interconnect for most storage systems. But increasing bandwidth and flexibility demands have exposed inefficiencies ...

In applications that range from DSL terminations to network switch fabrics, the quest for integration has led designers to put high-speed serial interfaces onto their system-level chips. Often this is ...
