Summary :

We have developed a low-latency, error-correcting-code-(ECC-)adaptable skew-compensation technique, which is needed for high-speed and long-distance parallel optical interconnections. A new frame-coding technique called shuffled mB1C encoding, which requires no clock-rate conversion circuit and no data buffering, and a new skew-measurement method which is suitable for ECC adaptation have been developed for the compensation. Full-digital skew-compensation circuits using these new techniques were able to compensate for a two-clock-cycle skew, even when one transmission channel was removed. The maximum latency for skew compensation was only five clock cycles.
