Institute of Electronics of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100080) AbstractThe method of bus encoding is for cutting down the transition frequency. The Bus-Invert(B-I) coding is the most simple and practical. But the transition frequency reduction is not obviously during the sequential transfer. In this paper, it judges the type of sequential and non-sequential transfer and takes the method of asymptotic zero-transition activity encoding during the sequential transfer. Compared with the B-I coding method 2 for the same program, it can cut down the transition frequency by 28.7% and area increasing by18 225µm .
