Abstract
A deserializer includes an input interface configured to receive an N-bit serialized stream at a source clock frequency; a modified-tree deserializing architecture that receives the first N−1 bits of the serialized stream from the input interface and generates N−1 parallel outputs corresponding to the first N−1 bits; and a last-bit flip-flop that directly samples the input interface to obtain an Nth bit, such that all N bits are available within one source clock cycle after the Nth bit arrives at the input interface.
