Description

The FIN224C μSerDes™ is a low-power serializer/

deserializer (μSerDes™) that can help minimize the cost

and power of transferring wide signal paths. Through the

use of serialization, the number of signals transferred from

one point to another can be significantly reduced. Typical

reduction is 5:1 for unidirectional paths. Through the use of

differential signaling, shielding and EMI filters can also be

minimized, further reducing the cost of serialization.

The differential signaling is also important for providing a

noise-insensitive signal that can withstand radio and

electrical noise sources. Major reduction in power

consumption allows minimal impact on battery life in mobile

applications. It is possible to use a single Phase-Locked Loop

(PLL) for most applications, including bi-directional operation.
