发明名称 8/10 and 64/66 aggregation
摘要 A network interface includes an interleaver module and line drivers. The interleaver module receives symbols on a plurality of input lanes. The symbols are arranged in groups, and each group includes one symbol from each of the plurality of input lanes. The symbols within each group are received concurrently on the plurality of input lanes. The interleaver module also serially outputs the symbols of a first group of the groups onto a first output lane of a plurality of output lanes, serially outputs the symbols of a second group of the groups onto a second output lane of the plurality of output lanes, and serially outputs the symbols of a third group of the groups onto the first output lane. The line drivers drive data based on the plurality of output lanes onto respective lanes of a physical medium.

主权项 1. A network interface, comprising: an interleaver module configured to (i) receive symbols on a plurality of input lanes, wherein the symbols are arranged in groups, and wherein each group includes one symbol from each of the plurality of input lanes, and wherein the symbols within each group are received concurrently on the plurality of input lanes,(ii) serially output the symbols of a first group of the groups onto a first output lane of a plurality of output lanes,(iii) serially output the symbols of a second group of the groups onto a second output lane of the plurality of output lanes, and(iv) serially output the symbols of a third group of the groups onto the first output lane, wherein the second group is received after the first group, and wherein the third group is received after the second group, with no intervening groups being received between the second group and the third group; and a plurality of line drivers configured to drive data based on the plurality of output lanes onto respective lanes of a physical medium.
