    摘要: Any number of transceiver channels is tested for jitter generation/tolerance simultaneously. Tested channels use a serial loopback path to connect a transceiver transmit channel to a transceiver receiver channel. Both the transmitter and receiver PLLs are connected to a common reference clock. The reference clock is modulated with jitter at a frequency below the bandwidth of the transmitter PLL but above the bandwidth of the receiver PLL. The magnitude of eye closure (in an eye diagram), which is equivalent to the amplitude of the jitter, is used to filter out bad transceiver units.

    摘要: Equalization circuitry may be used to compensate for the attenuation of a data signal caused by a transmission medium. The control circuitry for the equalization circuitry may generate control inputs for equalization stages that control the amount of gain provided to the data signal. A comparator may determine whether the gain from the equalization circuitry is less than or more than the desired amount of gain. A programmable up/down counter may adjust the counter value based on the output of the comparator. The counter value may be converted into one or more analog voltages using one or more digital-to-analog converters. These analog voltages may be provided to the equalization stages as control inputs. The control circuitry may also include hysteresis circuitry that prevents the counter value from being adjusted when the gain produced by the equalization stages is close to the desired amount of gain.

    摘要: The on-chip impedance termination circuits can be dynamically adjusted to match transmission line impedance values. A network of termination resistors on an integrated circuit provides termination impedance to a transmission line coupled to an IO pin. The termination resistors are coupled in series and in parallel with each other. Pass gates are coupled to the resistors. The pass gates are individually turned ON or OFF to couple or decouple resistors from the transmission line. Each pass gate is set to be ON or OFF to provide a selected termination resistance value to the transmission line. The termination resistance of the resistor network can be increased or decreased to match the impedance of different transmission lines. The termination resistance can also be varied to compensate for changes in the resistors caused by temperature variations on the integrated circuit or other factors.

    摘要: Clock data recovery (CDR) circuitry or phase locked loop (PLL) circuitry can be provided with a dynamically adjustable bandwidth. One CDR circuit or PLL circuit can be provided to support multiple systems or protocols, multiple parameter requirements for a given system or protocol, and changes in the input frequency or data rate within a given system or protocol. The parameters can include jitter (e.g., jitter tolerance, jitter transfer, jitter generation), source of dominant noise, and lock time. Control signals can be used to dynamically adjust the bandwidth of the CDR circuitry or PLL circuitry while the circuitry is processing data. The control signals can be set by a PLD, by a processor, by circuitry external to the PLD, or by user input.

    摘要: Systems and methods are provided using common-mode-voltage bias circuitry to make common-mode-voltage adjustments to differential driver circuitry in integrated circuit differential communications links. Adjustable bias circuitry may be controlled using static and dynamic control signals. Dynamic control signals can be produced by core logic on a programmable logic device or other integrated circuit. Static control signals can be produced by programmable elements. Bias circuit adjustments made at one end of a differential link can be used to improve performance at either end of the link or can be used to improve power consumption or to balance power and performance considerations. The same integrated circuit design can be used in both AC-coupled and DC-coupled environments. The bias circuitry can be formed from an adjustable current source and adjustable resistor. The current source and adjustable resistors can be controlled by the same control signals.

    摘要: Integrated circuit devices are provided that include power detection circuits that indicate whether power supplies have reached functional voltage levels. The power detection circuits include latches coupled to power supplies that can detect whether all the power supplies have reached functional voltage levels, logic circuits to provide appropriate output signals, and well bias circuits that supply current to the power detection circuits. Well bias circuits provide current from first power supplies to reach functional voltage levels so that indication may be provided from the power detection circuit without requiring functional voltage levels of all power supplies. Outputs from power detection circuits can be combined with control signals, for various applications. Applications include holding an integrated circuit device in reset until power supplies have reached functional voltage levels.
