INTERFACE COMMUNICATION DEVICE

摘要

It is possible to further suppress power consumption in an interface device using the LVDS. Provided is an interface communication device which transmits data from a transmission side device to a reception side device via an interface.  The transmission side device includes: a buffer memory which accumulates data until a predetermined data amount which can be used for communication is accumulated; a transmission side LVDS core whose operation becomes effective in accordance with accumulation information indicating that the predetermined data amount is accumulated in the buffer memory; and a data communication start unit which reports the accumulation information to the transmission side LVDS and the reception side device when the predetermined data amount is accumulated in the buffer memory.  The reception side device includes a reception side LVDS core whose operation becomes effective in accordance with the accumulation information.
