US Patent 9929803 Communication link control using communication interface and programmable logic circuitry

Systems and methods related to the configuration of data communication links between electrical devices are described. The methods described may consider power efficiency of the data communication link along with bit error rate, latency, data rate, and other specifications. Methods discussed may lead to changes in the data communication link protocol, use of error correction coding scheme, the power consumption and the selection of features employed by the data communication link. Electronic systems capable of implementing the discussed methods may be incorporated in the circuitry of the electrical devices. Methods discussed may change the configuration the data communication link features during the operation of the electrical devices and/or the data communication link.
