Abstract:
1. A wireless interconnect for transmitting and receiving signals at specified frequencies for short-range communication with high data rate capability, comprising: a transmitter for modulating a carrier signal with an input data stream, wherein the modulated carrier signal is then fed to a transmitter antenna that radiates the modulated carrier signal; and a receiver for receiving the radiated carrier signal at a receiver antenna and for converting the received carrier signal to a full swing digital signal as an output data stream; wherein the transmitter and receiver use asynchronous modulation and differential signaling for communicating between integrated circuit chips or printed circuit boards; and wherein the transmitter or receiver antenna comprises a bond-wire dipole antenna, and the bond-wire dipole antenna is comprised of a pair of bond wires connecting between a pair of pads on a integrated circuit (IC) die mounted on a printed circuit board (PCB) and a pair of floating pads on the PCB.
