1. About This MegaCore Function
SerialLite II MegaCore function is a lightweight protocol suitable for packet and
streaming data in chip-to-chip, board-to-board, and backplane applications. The
SerialLite II protocol offers low gate count and minimum data transfer latency. It
provides reliable, high-speed transfers of packets between devices over serial links.
The protocol defines packet encapsulation at the link layer and data encoding at the
physical layer, and integrates transparently with existing networks without software
support.
