摘要:
Systems and methods of interconnecting devices may include an input/output (IO) connector having a buffer with an integrated voltage regulator. The integrated voltage regulator may include a first supply output and a second supply output, wherein the IO connector includes an IO power contact coupled to the first supply output. The IO connector may also include a logic power contact coupled to the second supply output. In one example, a host device may issue power management commands to the buffer in order to scale the second supply output independently of the first supply output.

摘要:
A tunable bandpass filter to provide a filtered differential clock signal in response to an input differential clock signal, where an embodiment comprises a transistor pair loaded by tunable loads, and a feedback circuit to tune the tunable loads. In some embodiments, the feedback circuit tunes the loads to maximize a small-signal differential gain. In other embodiments, the feedback circuit tunes the loads to minimize a metric indicative of jitter in the filtered differential clock signal. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

A system and method for encoding and receiving data is provided. The data is encoded as a pulse amplitude modulated signal such that the amplitude signals do not transition from the highest signal level to the lowest signal level and do not transition from the lowest signal level to the highest signal level. The encoding and decoding is performed in some embodiments via a lookup table, and in further embodiments is designed to minimize the step between sequential pulse amplitude modulated symbols.
摘要:
A clock signal is deskewed relative to a data signal by sweeping a sampling point in time and sweeping an amplitude offset. Bit error measurements are made at each sampling point in time and compared. Bit error measurements may be made by comparing received data to predetermined data values. The predetermined data values may be sourced from a linear feedback shift register.
