Abstract: A system includes a transmit equalizer to equalize a data stream using a set of transmit parameters to generate an input signal. The system further includes a communication channel to receive the input signal. The system further includes a receive equalizer to receive an output signal from the communication channel in response to the input signal and detect the data stream from the output signal using a set of receive parameters. The system additionally includes a controller to change the set of transmit parameters in response to a condition, where the transmit parameters, the receive parameters, and the condition are selected to both enable the receive equalizer to detect the data stream from the output signal and reduce the likelihood of an external circuit detecting the data stream from the output signal.
