Abstract
Systems and methods of digital interface translation are described. One embodiment of the invention includes multiple receiver lanes, where at least one of the receiver lanes is configured to receive a data channel at a first data rate and encoded in accordance with an input digital interface standard, an auxiliary channel input configured to receive an auxiliary data channel, and a single transmitter lane configured to output a single data channel at a second data rate and encoded in accordance with an output digital interface standard. In addition, the multilane to single lane digital interface translator is configured to decode the received data into data streams, and interleave the data streams to form packets, the multilane to single lane digital interface translator is configured to insert auxiliary data received via the auxiliary channel input and idle data between the packets to produce an output data stream that is rate matched to the second data rate, and the multilane to single lane digital interface translator is configured to encode the output data stream in accordance with the output digital interface standard.
