Abstract

Systems, apparatuses, and methods for conveying and receiving information as electrical signals in a computing system are disclosed. A computing system includes multiple transmitters sending singled-ended data signals to multiple receivers. A termination voltage is generated and sent to the multiple receivers. The termination voltage is coupled to each of signal termination circuitry and signal sampling circuitry within each of the multiple receivers. Any change in the termination voltage affects the termination circuitry and affects comparisons performed by the sampling circuitry. Received signals are reconstructed at the receivers using the received signals, the signal termination circuitry and the signal sampling circuitry.
