Abstract
A Network-on-Chip (NoC) link with an upstream bypassable narrowing serialization adapter and a downstream bypassable widening serialization adapter. The serialization adapters are normally bypassed. To avoid sending information on broken wires, bypassing is disabled so that information is serialized to only a portion of the link. Serialization can be applied to any portion of a link down to as little as one bit wire.
