Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 7:
8. A device comprising:
clock generation circuitry configured to generate a plurality of receiver clocks, a divided transmission clock, and a transmission clock;
interleaving circuitry coupled to the clock generation circuitry and configured to generate a plurality of receiver data streams based on a receiver input and the plurality of receiver clocks;
first handoff circuitry coupled to the clock generation circuitry and the interleaving circuitry and configured to convert the plurality of receiver data streams to a first plurality of transmission data streams based on the transmission clock and a buffer;
second handoff circuitry coupled to the clock generation circuitry and the interleaving circuitry and configured to convert the plurality of receiver data streams to a second plurality of transmission data streams based on a comparison of the plurality of receiver clocks to the divided transmission clock; and
serializer circuitry selectively coupled to the first handoff circuitry and the second handoff circuitry and configured to generate a transmission data stream based on the transmission clock and the first plurality of transmission data streams or the second plurality of transmission data streams.
