In one embodiment, a retimer device includes a receiver to receive data from a first device via a data link, retimer circuitry to recover a clock phase from the received data, and prepare a new copy of the received data sampled by a clean clock based on the recovered clock phase, a transmitter to transmit the new copy to a second device via the data link, wherein the receiver is configured to receive an in-band standby signal from the first device having a given pattern in a physical layer of the signal, activate a power saving mode of the retimer device responsively to the standby signal having the given pattern in the physical layer of the standby signal, receive an in-band wakeup signal from the first device, and initiate an exit from the power saving mode to power up the retimer device responsively to the wakeup signal.

In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a circuit board having a parallel bus with a first trace and a second trace, a first inductive coil coupled to the first trace, and a second inductive coil coupled to the second trace. The first and second inductive coils are arranged to inductively couple with one another to reduce cross talk effects in the parallel bus.

A communication system is described, among other things. An illustrative system is disclosed to include one or more decoding circuits to perform forward error correction for a received data block in a physical layer and one or more cyclic redundancy check circuits to perform a cyclic redundancy check based on a first output of the decoding circuits and a cyclic redundancy check code generated in the physical layer based on the received data block. In response to one or more of a second output of the decoding circuits and an output of the cyclic redundancy check circuits, a retransmission request of the data block is initiated.
