ABSTRACT:
A system and method for improving the quality of transmitted digital signals in a multi-level signaling system wherein digital signals representing more than one bit of information may be transmitted at more than two signal levels on a single transmission medium, includes encoding digital values represented by sets of N bits to provide corresponding sets of P symbols, each set of P symbols being selected to reduce full-swing transitions and to perform DC balancing between successive digital signal transmissions. The system and method further includes transmitting the sets of P symbols over the single transmission medium. Clock data recovery and comma insertions may additionally be provided in alternate configurations.
