The Basics of SerDes (Serializers/Deserializers) - Planet Analog
Sep 16, 2010 · In a serial bus, a device called SerDes (Serializer/ Desrializer) is used to transmit and receive data over the serial link. In essence, a SerDes is a serial transceiver which converts parallel data into a serial data stream on the transmitter side and converts the serial data back to parallel on the receiver side.
