A method of processing data including dividing, at a transmitter, data into 3-bit units, generating, at the transmitter, first and second clock embedded data signals and a third data signal, wherein a clock signal and first bits of the units are included in the first clock embedded data signal, the clock signal and second bits of the units are included in the second clock embedded data signal and third bits of the units are included in the third data signal, transmitting, from the transmitter to a receiver, the first and second clock embedded data signals and the third data signal, and restoring, at the receiver, the first and second bits and the clock signal from the first and second clock embedded data signals and the third bits from the third data signal.
