Abstract

This work presents the architecture of communication interface between nodes of dedicated cluster (custom computing machine) for electromagnetic field computations by finite elements method. The communication channel is based on LVDS (low voltage differential signaling) standard. Basics modules of transmitter/receiver units are also discussed. In addition paper presents the project of testing board, which will be used for validation tests of proposed communication channel.
