Apparatuses and methods for encoding and decoding of signal lines for multi-level communication architectures

Abstract:

Apparatuses and methods for multi-level communication architectures are disclosed herein. An example apparatus may include a driver circuit configured to convert a plurality of bitstreams into a plurality of multilevel signals. A count of the plurality of bitstreams is greater than count of the plurality of multilevel signals. The driver circuit further configured to drive the plurality of multilevel signals onto a plurality of signal lines using individual drivers. A driver of the individual drivers is configured to drive more than two voltages.
