The invention relates to a method for serial data transmission, comprising the steps consisting in computing the running disparity (RD) of a bit stream that is being transmitted; when the running disparity reaches a threshold (T), computing a point disparity on a subsequent frame (S) of the stream; if the point disparity has the same sign as the threshold, inverting the states of the bits of the frame in the transmitted bit stream; and inserting into the transmitted bit stream a polarity bit having a state signalling the inversion.

Method for polarity bit line encoding using aperiodic frames

A method for transmitting data in series includes producing a scrambled signal by applying a scrambling using a pseudo-random sequence to an incoming serial signal conveying the data and producing an outgoing serial signal. The scrambled signal is monitored to detect occurrences of one or more data patterns. In response to the detection of one or more occurrences, one or more actions are taken to protect data in the output signal.

Serial transmission having a low level EMI

A method for transmitting data in series includes producing a scrambled signal by applying a scrambling using a pseudo-random sequence to an incoming serial signal conveying the data and producing an outgoing serial signal from the scrambled signal. After each sequence of N consecutive bits at the same state in the scrambled signal, a dummy bit of reverse state is inserted in the outgoing signal.
