David V. Greig has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 7099416
    Abstract: A receiver includes clock termination circuitry that is capable of applying either a terminating impedance or a high impedance to a transmission path that carries a clock signal. When multiple of these receivers are used to service data links that share a clock signal, one of the clock termination circuits applies the terminating impedance to the transmission path that carries the clock signal while the other clock termination circuit(s) applies a high impedance to the transmission path. The receiver also includes a plurality of high rate serial bit stream buffers and a clock signal buffer along with the clock termination circuitry. In other embodiments, the receiver includes a deserializer and may include a controller. The receiver may service a dual link Digital Visual Interface.
