  • System and method for decreasing signal integrity noise by using varying drive strengths based on likelihood of signals becoming victims
    Patent number: 8890564
    Abstract: A method of designing an integrated circuit, integrated circuits using different drive strengths and a signal integrity monitor are provide herein. In one embodiment, the signal integrity monitor includes: (1) a signal interface configured to receive a signal from a parallel data bus for transmission over a plurality of signal paths and (2) a victim signal identifier configured to dynamically determine a potential victim signal path of the plurality of signal paths.
    Type: Grant
