Abstract
An adaptive computing system having trainable components for eliminating harmful effects of skew caused by the length of the transmission line or introduced by data-dependent sources. A transmitter provides a data value to the transmission line according to an output clock signal and precompensates the transmission line when a change in the data value is detected. A receiver is communicatively coupled to the transmitter by the transmission line and has a plurality of data latches. Each data latch stores a data value received from the transmission line according to a unique clock signal. All configuration and training of the adaptive transmitter and receiver is accomplished through a standard boundary scan register that complies with IEEE/ANSI standard 1149.1-1990.
