A method for providing a high-speed data communication between a host and field-programmable gate array (“FPGA”) is disclosed. The method, in one embodiment, is capable of identifying a data rate on a bus containing a P-channel and an N-channel operable to transmit signals in accordance with a high-speed Universal Serial Bus (“USB”) protocol. Upon sampling, by a first input deserializer, first two samples of data signals carried by the P-channel in accordance with a first clock signals clocking twice as fast as the data rate of the P-channel, a second input deserializer is used to sample the second two samples of data signals transmitted by the N-channel in accordance with a second clock signal running twice as fast as the data rate of the N-channel with a ninety (90) degree phase shift. The method subsequently forwards the data signals to one or more configurable logic blocks (“LBs”) in FPGA.

The embodiment applies a two-level coding/decoding technology using a spread spectrum code and an orthogonal code, whereby touch sensing can be robust against noise, a touch sensing time can be reduced, and touch sensitivity can be enhanced.

Systems and methods are described for transmitting data over physical channels to provide a high bandwidth, low latency interface between a transmitting device and a receiving device operating at high speed with low power utilization. Communication is performed using group signaling over sets of four wires using a vector signaling code, where each wire of a set carries a low-swing signal that may take on one of four signal values. Topologies and designs of wire sets are disclosed with preferred characteristics for group signaling communications.

A pair of ground planes arranged in parallel, a dielectric medium disposed in between the pair of ground planes, and a set of at least four signal conductors disposed in the dielectric medium, the set of at least four signal conductors having (i) a first pair of signal conductors arranged proximate to a first ground plane of the pair of ground planes and (ii) a second pair of signal conductors arranged proximate to a second ground plane of the pair of ground planes, each signal conductor of the set of at least four signal conductors configured to carry a respective signal corresponding to a symbol of a codeword of a vector signaling code.

Various energy efficient data encoding schemes and computing devices are disclosed. In one aspect, a method of transmitting data from a transmitter to a receiver connected by plural wires is provided. The method includes sending from the transmitter on at least one but not all of the wires a first wave form that has first and second signal transitions. The receiver receives the first waveform and measures a first duration between the first and second signal transitions using a locally generated clock signal not received from the transmitter. The first duration is indicative of a first particular data value.
