Abstract:
Described is an apparatus which comprises: a Variable Gain Amplifier (VGA); a set of samplers to sample data output from the VGA according to a clock signal; and a Clock Data Recovery (CDR) circuit to adjust phase of the clock signal such that magnitude of a first post-cursor signal associated with the sampled data is substantially half of a magnitude of a primary cursor tap associated with the sampled data.
Abstract:
Described is an apparatus which comprises: an amplifier; a first set of samplers to sample data output from the amplifier according to a clock signal, the set of samplers to generate an output; and a converter to convert the output of the first set of samplers to 1 -hot encoded data.
