Self timed interface

摘要

A self-timed interface (STI) in which a clock signal clocks bit serial data onto a parallel, electrically conductive bus and the clock signal is transmitted on a separate line of the bus. The received data on each line of the bus is individually phase aligned with the clock signal. The received clock signal is used to define boundary edges of a data bit cell individually for each line and the data on each line of the bus is individually phase adjusted so that, for example, a data transition position is in the center of the cell.
