Abstract
A circuit and method for signalling between chips implements signal transter through a power supply line. Parallel data bits are serialized into a serial data stream and sent from a source semiconductor device through the power supply line to a destination semiconductor device. The destination semiconductor device receives the serial data stream and, using a high pass filter, selects the high-frequency component of the power supply line, and deserializes the serial data stream into parallel bits. A low pass filter interconnecting the power supply line and the chip provides a steady power supply potential to operate the functional elements of the chip.
