METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR COMMUNICATING DATA AND CONTROL INFORMATION OVER A SERIAL LINK
20220407558 · 2022-12-22 ·

A communication system includes a digital data processor that produces a digital data sample and one or more control bits. A serialized transmit interface assembles the digital data sample and the control bit(s) into first and second data packets of a data frame, and sends the data frame over a signal line. A serialized receive interface receives the data frame and produces a reconstructed digital data sample and the control bit(s) from the first and second data packets. A control circuit coupled to the serialized receive interface produces a control signal from the control bit(s). The communication system may include a converter circuit, which produces an RF input signal by performing a digital-to-analog conversion of the reconstructed digital data sample, and by upconverting the resulting analog data sample signal to RF. A power amplifier amplifies the RF input signal and modifies operation of a sub-circuit based on the control signal.
