Abstract: A signaling bus having a plurality of adjacent logical lanes, each logical lane having an odd signal path and an even signal path. Driving circuitry drives each logical lane by transmitting, if data has changed from an immediately preceding cycle, a one cycle signal having a first transition direction on the even signal path on even cycles and transmitting a one cycle signal having the first transition direction on odd cycles. If data has not changed, transmitting a two cycle signal having a second transition direction on the even signal path on even cycles and transmitting a two cycle signal on the odd path having the second transition direction on odd cycles. Receiver circuitry alternates selection of the even cycle path and the odd cycle path to determine if data has changed from the immediately preceding cycle.
