Capacitive-coupling-based simultaneously bi-directional transceivers for chip-to-chip communication in three-dimensional integrated circuits are presented. By employing a 4-level signaling strategy with a novel cascaded capacitor configuration, the proposed transceivers can transmit and receive data...
