Abstract
An integrated circuit (IC) that enables a fast parallel-to-serial memory data transfer is described. The IC includes a first input output (IO) interface operable to receive a plurality of data in parallel from a memory device, wherein the plurality of data is a binary sequence. The IC also includes a controller receiving the plurality of data from the first IO interface, wherein the controller is operable to generate a compressed data by compressing the plurality of data, wherein a portion of the compressed data provides information on a significant portion of the plurality of data. And the IC also includes a second IO interface receives the compressed data from the controller and serially shifts the compressed data out of the IC.
