A method of transmitting data so as to reduce electromagnetic interference associated therewith, the method comprising: receiving a plurality of un-encoded control symbols associated with a High-Definition Multimedia Interface interface and a plurality of data; generating one or more pseudo-random values based on a transmitting linear feedback shift register; wherein the method is characterized by : pre-selecting a plurality of scrambled control symbols for storage in a lookup table, the plurality of scrambled control symbols being pre-selected for their desirable numeric properties such that their transmission over a transmission medium minimizes undesirable electromagnetic interference; scrambling the plurality of un-encoded control symbols, the plurality of un-encoded control symbols being exclusively OR'd with the generated one or more pseudo-random values in order to produce a plurality of corresponding pseudo-random values, where a plurality of corresponding scrambled control symbols of the plurality of scrambled control symbols are retrieved from the lookup table based on respective prescribed associations with the plurality of corresponding pseudo-random values generated using the scrambling; and transmitting the plurality of scrambled corresponding control symbols , the transmitting of the plurality of scrambled corresponding control symbols minimizes the undesirable electromagnetic interference; receiving a plurality of un-encoded control symbols associated with a High-Definition Multimedia Interface interface and a plurality of data; generating one or more pseudo-random values based on a transmitting linear feedback shift register; wherein the method is characterized by : pre-selecting a plurality of scrambled control symbols for storage in a lookup table, the plurality of scrambled control symbols being pre-selected for their desirable numeric properties such that their transmission over a transmission medium minimizes undesirable electromagnetic interference; scrambling the plurality of un-encoded control symbols, the plurality of un-encoded control symbols being exclusively OR'd with the generated one or more pseudo-random values in order to produce a plurality of corresponding pseudo-random values, where a plurality of corresponding scrambled control symbols of the plurality of scrambled control symbols are retrieved from the lookup table based on respective prescribed associations with the plurality of corresponding pseudo-random values generated using the scrambling; and transmitting the plurality of scrambled corresponding control symbols , the transmitting of the plurality of scrambled corresponding control symbols minimizes the undesirable electromagnetic interference; pre-selecting a plurality of scrambled control symbols for storage in a lookup table, the plurality of scrambled control symbols being pre-selected for their desirable numeric properties such that their transmission over a transmission medium minimizes undesirable electromagnetic interference; scrambling the plurality of un-encoded control symbols, the plurality of un-encoded control symbols being exclusively OR'd with the generated one or more pseudo-random values in order to produce a plurality of corresponding pseudo-random values, where a plurality of corresponding scrambled control symbols of the plurality of scrambled control symbols are retrieved from the lookup table based on respective prescribed associations with the plurality of corresponding pseudo-random values generated using the scrambling; and transmitting the plurality of scrambled corresponding control symbols , the transmitting of the plurality of scrambled corresponding control symbols minimizes the undesirable electromagnetic interference; <EOS>
