A data communication device communicating with other devices via multiple communication paths includes a transmission unit and a reception unit. The transmission unit is configured to receive a packet containing header information and data, to output the header information to each of the communication paths, to divide the data into multiple data pieces, and to output the data pieces to the respective communication paths. The reception unit is configured to receive header information and a data piece for each of the communication paths, and to reconstruct a packet from the header information and the data piece received from each of the communication paths. In reconstructing the packet, the reception unit adjusts, for each of the communication paths, output timing of the data piece, based on the header information.

Systems and methods for data multiplexing include or use a data serializer having a first set of four serializer outputs and a second set of four serializer outputs. The systems and methods also use or include a pair of 4 to 1 multiplexers each having four first multiplexer inputs and one first multiplexer outputs and a 2 to 1 multiplexer having two multiplexer inputs and one multiplexer output.

Apparatus and associated methods relate to a high-speed data serializer with a clock calibration module including a main multiplexer (MMUX), a replicated multiplexer (RMUX), a duty cycle calibration module (DCC), and a set of adjustable delay lines (ADLs), the ADLs generating calibrated clocks from a set of system clocks, the DCC sensing duty cycle and phase of the calibrated clocks. In an illustrative example, the DCC may generate error signals indicative of deviation from an expected duty cycle using low-pass filters. The error signals control the ADLs, which may provide continuous corrections to the calibrated clocks, for example. The MMUX and RMUX may receive the calibrated clocks, the RMUX generating a duty cycle indicating clock-to-data phasing, the MMUX providing live data multiplexing, for example. Various multiplexer calibration schemes may reduce jitter, which may facilitate increased data rates associated with high-speed serial data streams.
