Showing Results For: Interface - Serializers, Deserializers
An integrated circuit (IC or chip) transceiver called a SerDes, or serializer/deserializer, translates parallel data to serial data and vice versa. The receiver section is a parallel-to-serial converter, whereas the transmitter section is a serial-to-parallel converter. The SerDes interfaces are frequently packaged together.
SerDes chips reduce the number of data pathways and, consequently, the number of connection pins or wires needed by enabling the transfer of parallel data between two points over serial streams. Most SerDes devices support full-duplex operation, allowing for simultaneous data conversion in both directions. Fiber optic communications systems, wireless network routers, storage applications, and Gigabit Ethernet systems all use SerDes processors. Different specifications and speeds apply depending on the application and the user's needs. Some SerDes equipment can operate at speeds of more than 10 Gbps.
The following are some of the key benefits offered by Serializers and deserializers:
In short, SerDes transform incoming parallel data into serial data. We send this input data through a physical route, such as fiber, copper-twisted pair, or even a backplane. Through our physical channels, we receive serial data, which the receiver translates back to parallel data. The total procedure enables designers to boost data transmission rates between two places in a system without adding extra pins to a component.
Serializers and deserializers (SerDes) are used for different aims that include:
There are two major types of SerDes, known as Basic Serialization and Custom Serialization, which are illustrated below:
Versioning of objects may cause issues when using basic serialization. When versioning issues are crucial, you will employ custom serialization. The simplest form of serialization is fundamental; however, it offers little process control.
In this type of serialization, you can precisely define which objects will be serialized and how. The class must implement both the ISerializable interface and the Serializable attribute. Use a custom function Object () { [native code] } if you want your object to be deserialized in a specific way as well.
