Abstract

In our work, the interface protocol between a processor and memory built using an optical connection is described. We designed a serial interface protocol to simplify a parallel interface between the processor and memory, and implemented the protocol engine to be executed on the interface. There are three main roles of the protocol engines. The first is the data collection and sorting. The second is the data error detection and retransmission request. The third is packetizing the memory command and data.
