    Abstract: In one embodiment, an apparatus includes: an amplifier to compare a reference voltage to a feedback voltage and to output a comparison signal based on the comparison; a loop circuit coupled to the amplifier, where the loop circuit is to receive the comparison signal and provide a regulated voltage to the amplifier as the feedback voltage in a first mode of operation, and in a second mode of operation to provide a predetermined feedback ratio point to the amplifier as the feedback voltage; and an output device coupled to the amplifier. The output device may be configured to receive a supply voltage and the comparison signal and output the regulated voltage at an output node based at least in part on the comparison signal.

    Abstract: In one aspect, an apparatus includes: a first time-to-data converter (TDC) to oversample a first duration of incoming data and hold the oversampled first duration during receipt of a second duration of the incoming data; a second TDC to oversample the second duration of the incoming data and hold the oversampled second duration during receipt of a third duration of the incoming data; a processing circuit coupled to the first and second TDCs, the processing circuit including a first filter to filter the oversampled first duration and the oversampled second duration and generate a control output therefrom; and a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) coupled to the processing circuit to receive the control output and generate a recovery clock signal therefrom.

    Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods are disclosed for gain programming or selection with parasitic element compensation. In one exemplary embodiment, an apparatus includes a first circuit that has a first programmable gain, and includes a first set of components having parasitic elements. The apparatus also includes a second circuit that has a second programmable gain, and includes a second set of components having parasitic elements. The apparatus has a gain that is a product of the first and second programmable gains. A gain error because of the parasitic elements of the first and second sets of components is canceled by setting the first programmable gain as a reciprocal of the second programmable gain.

    Abstract: In an embodiment, an apparatus includes: an amplifier to compare a reference voltage to a feedback voltage and to output a comparison signal based on the comparison; a first loop circuit coupled to the amplifier to receive the comparison signal and output a first feedback voltage for the amplifier to use as the feedback voltage in a first mode of operation; and a second loop circuit coupled to the amplifier. The second loop circuit may be configured to receive the comparison signal and output a second feedback voltage for the amplifier to use as the feedback voltage in a second mode of operation. The second feedback voltage may be greater than the first feedback voltage, and the second loop circuit may output a regulated voltage based on the comparison signal.
