    Abstract: In a system comprising a first device and a second device coupled via an interconnect, a method includes setting a rate of insertion of clock mismatch compensation symbols for a transmit port of the first device to one of a plurality of rates of insertion responsive to the second device having capability to compensate for a clock frequency mismatch. A device includes an interconnect interface comprising a transmit port and a receive port, and a configuration structure. The configuration structure comprises a capability field to store a value indicating whether the device has a capability to compensate for a clock frequency mismatch, and an enable field. The device further includes a packet control module to configure a rate of insertion of clock mismatch compensation symbols by the transmit port into a data stream responsive to a value stored at the enable field.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided for outputting a reset signal during power-up until two conditions are satisfied. In one embodiment, the method and apparatus includes a voltage detector that provides a first output (“VO1”) when an output voltage of a regulator (“VREG”) exceeds a threshold voltage, thereby satisfying a first condition, a comparator receiving a first input voltage and a second input voltage, the comparator providing a second output (“VO2”) when the first input voltage exceeds the second input voltage, thereby satisfying a second condition, and a release circuit that outputs the reset signal unless the voltage detector provides VO1 while the comparator provides VO2.

    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for performing efficient data transfer in a computing system are disclosed. A computing system includes multiple transmitters sending singled-ended data signals to multiple receivers. In order to better handle noise issues when using single-ended signaling, one or more of the receivers include equalization circuitry and termination circuitry. The termination circuitry prevents reflection on a corresponding transmission line ending at a corresponding receiver. The equalization circuitry uses a bridged T-coil circuit to provide continuous time linear equalization (CTLE) with no feedback loop. The equalization circuitry performs equalization by providing a high-pass filter that offsets the low-pass characteristics of a corresponding transmission line. A comparator of the receiver receives the input signal and compares it to a reference voltage. The placement of the comparator and the ratio of the inductances of the inductors of the bridged T-coil circuit are based on whether the receiver includes self-diagnostic circuitry.

    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for performing efficient data transfer in a computing system are disclosed. A termination voltage generator includes an inverter-based chopper circuit, which uses a first group of an even number of serially connected inverters coupled between the output node of the chopper circuit and the gate terminal of an output pmos transistor. Additionally, a second group of an even number of serially connected inverters is coupled between the output node and the gate terminal of an output nmos transistor. A replica inverter includes two serially connected pmos transistors and two serially connected nmos transistors. Each of one pmos transistor and one nmos transistor receives a generated voltage set as the expected value of the termination voltage. Each of the other pmos transistor and nmos transistor receives an output based on a comparison between the expected value to the output of the replica inverter.

    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for implementing a negative resistance circuit for bandwidth extension are disclosed. Within a feedback path of a differential signal path, capacitors are placed on the inputs and outputs of a fully differential amplifier connecting to the differential signal path. In one embodiment, a circuit includes a fully differential amplifier and four capacitors. A first capacitor is coupled between a first signal path and a non-inverting input terminal of the amplifier and a second capacitor is coupled between the first signal path and a non-inverting output terminal of the amplifier. A third capacitor is coupled between a second signal path and an inverting input terminal of the amplifier and a fourth capacitor is coupled between the second signal path and an inverting output terminal of the amplifier. The first and second signal paths carry a differential signal.
