Abstract:
The disclosed embodiments relate to the design of a system that implements a coupling balance scheme for differential signals. The system includes a set of 2N signal lines carrying N differential signal pairs, wherein the set of N signal lines runs parallel to each other in a planar layout. The set of 2N signal lines is organized into a set of consecutive sequences, wherein each sequence includes a pattern of twists that switch signal positions for each differential pair to cancel coupling effects with respect to other signal lines. Moreover, the positions of differential signal pairs are exchanged between consecutive sequences, so that the set of consecutive sequences includes a sequence for each possible ordering of the N differential signal pairs.

Claim (Index 22):
The method of  claim 17 , wherein if the set of 2N signal lines comprises four signal lines, including a first signal line, a second signal line, a third signal line and a fourth signal line, which carry differential signals D 1P , D 1N , D 2P  and D 2N , respectively, the pattern of twists in the V-type cancellation scheme is defined so that:\n at a first location, the first and second signal lines twist; at a second location, the first and second signal lines twist, and the third and fourth signal lines twist; at a third location, the first and second signal lines twist; at a fourth location, the third and fourth signal lines twist; at a fifth location, the first and second signal lines twist, and the third and fourth signal lines twist; and at a sixth location, the third and fourth signal lines twist.
