Abstract: A system may include a video link and a hybrid link that connects a transmitting device to the receiving device, and at least one intermediate hop between the transmitting device and the receiving device. The intermediate hop may be configured to relay video content from the video source to the video sink through the hybrid link using one or more data relay modes. The hybrid link may be configured to perform hybrid link control signaling (HLCS) to manage a physical layer of the hybrid link. The video link between the video source and the video sink may be configured to transmit a video stream the from video source to the video sink over one or more video lanes. A video link training may be implemented for the video link and the hybrid link.

Abstract: A communication system, comprising a first node, a second node, a serial communication link between the first node and the second node, configured to transmit digital video data from the first node to the second node over one or more video channels of the link. The communication system further including a hybrid link between the first node and the second node, wherein the first node and the second node are configured to transmit at least one stream of data to the other through a hybrid channel over the hybrid link. In the communication system, the bandwidth of the serial communication link is scaled according to a video pixel frequency. Further, the initial locking of the serial communication link is aided by clock information delivered over the hybrid link.

Abstract: A system for delivering USB data over a DiiVA network may include a USB host controller, at least one USB device, a first DiiVA device connected to the USB host controller through an upstream USB port, a second DiiVA device connected to the USB device through a downstream USB port; and a network configured to transfer data between the first DiiVA device and the second DiiVA device according to USB protocol through a DiiVA bi-directional hybrid link in the network. The network is responsive to the USB host controller to deliver contents for the USB protocol through at least one line state information packet and at least one USB data packet transmitted through the hybrid link between the upstream USB port and the downstream USB port.

Abstract: A data processing system includes a data processing module and a data interface module. The data processing module may perform a data processing function and interface with other data processing systems using data packets having a first protocol format including actual data and control data. The data interface module may convert data packets having the first protocol format to data packets having a second protocol format, may output the data packets having the second protocol format to the data bus, may convert data packets having the second protocol format to data packets having the first protocol format, and may transfer the data packets having the first protocol format to the data processing module. The data processing system may be capable of processing both standardized actual data and control data for transferring the standardized actual data, and capable of simultaneously supporting an asynchronous interface and a synchronous interface.

Abstract: A data communication system includes a host configured to transmit a power-down identifier through a data channel and configured to drive a strobe channel. A client is coupled to the host through the data channel and the strobe channel, wherein the client is configured to drive the data channel to wake up the host; enter a power-down state in response to the power-down identifier received from the host; and wake up by detecting whether the strobe channel is driven by the host.
