Abstract
A method for enhancing signal integrity in an interface between a source device and at least one destination device includes: analyzing two or more consecutive data patterns intended to be conveyed by the interface to determine whether data transitions corresponding to the data patterns are likely to introduce coupling noise and/or simultaneous switching output (SSO) effects on the interface; generating a modified data pattern for transmission by the interface, the modified data pattern reducing coupling noise and/or SSO effects on the interface compared to an original data pattern intended to be conveyed by the interface; and transmitting the modified data pattern and information regarding a manner in which the original data pattern was modified to the destination device to thereby reduce coupling noise and/or SSO effects on the interface.
