To propose effective signaling scheme for inductive coupling link, inductive coupling channel and signaling schemes are analyzed. For fair comparison of various signaling schemes, a signal quality factor ($Q_{signal}$) is introduced and the NRZ signal scheme shows better signal quality factor than BPM signaling schemes. For simulation, the transmitter for inductive coupling link is designed with 0.13 ${\mu}m$ CMOS process and the inductor is modeled as spiral inductor in chip.

This paper presents the method of improving the data rate and BER in the inductive coupling link using a BPM signaling method. A complementary switching transmitter is used to remove invalid glitches at transmitted data, and the concept of pre-distortion is introduced to optimize received data. Also, an integrating receiver is used to increase the sampling margin and equalizing transistors are added in the pre-charge path of the integrator and comparator for high frequency operation. The transceiver designed with a 0.13 um CMOS technology operates at 2.4 Gb/s and consumes 5.99 mW from 1.2 V power supply.

A transceiver for a high-speed inductive-coupling link is proposed. The bi-phase modulation (BPM) signaling scheme is used due to its good noise immunity. The transmitter utilizes a complementary switching method to remove glitches in transmitted data. To increase the timing margin on the receiver side, an integrating receiver with a pre-charging equalizer is employed. The proposed transceiver was implemented via a 130-nm CMOS process. The measured timing window for a $10^{-12}$ bit error rate (BER) at 1.8 Gb/s was 0.33 UI.
