Techniques are disclosed for translating five-bit source vectors into six-bit coded vectors. A sixth bit having a default value is appended to the source vectors. Selected one to three individual source bits are complemented for a minority of the plurality of source vectors. The coded vectors are either...http://www.google.de/patents/US6911921?utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatent US6911921 - 5B/6B-T, 3B/4B-T and partitioned 8B/10B-T and 10B/12B transmission codes, and their implementation for high operating rates
