Pulsed wave interconnect.

Pulsed wave interconnect.

Pulsed wave interconnect is proposed for global interconnect applications. Signals are represented by localized wave-packets that propagate along the interconnect lines at the local speed of light to trigger the receivers. Energy consumption is reduced through charging up only part of the interconne...
