In general, in one aspect, the disclosure describes an apparatus having an averager to receive differential output voltages of a transmitter and generate an average transmitter output voltage. A comparator is to compare the average transmitter output voltage to a reference voltage and generate a difference therebetween. An integrator is to integrate the difference between the average transmitter output voltage and the reference voltage over time. The integrated difference is fed back to the transmitter to bias the transmitter.

Apparatuses, circuits, and methods to amplify signals with reduced jitter are disclosed. Embodiments generally comprise amplifiers coupled with apparatuses that adjust peak frequencies of the amplifiers to reduce jitter. In many system and apparatus embodiments, the frequency gain boosters receive one or more feedback signals derived from input signals applied to the amplifiers. The frequency gain boosters generally respond to the feedback signals by manipulating or controlling active loads coupled to the amplifiers. In controlling the active loads, the frequency gain boosters generally cause the active loads to peak at frequencies at or near the input signals, the result being attenuated jitter in an output signal of the amplifier.

Apparatuses, circuits, and methods to reduce duty cycle errors are disclosed. Embodiments generally comprise buffer circuits coupled with error detection circuits and correction feedback circuits that sense duty cycles errors in output signals from the buffer circuits, generate error signals, and couple the error signals back to the inputs to correct or reduce the duty cycle errors. The error circuits may comprise active low pass filters in various embodiments, while amplifiers generally comprise inverter buffers or other simple buffers which alter or affect the input signals to the buffer circuits in order to reduce the duty cycle errors. In many system and apparatus embodiments, the error circuits comprise a resistor-capacitor circuit coupled with an inverter buffer. The error detection circuits generally function as active low pass filters and generate error signals for the feedback circuits.

Embodiments herein relate to a die of a multi-die package, wherein the die is coupled with another die via a die-to-die (D2D) interconnect link. The die may transmit a data signal to the other die via a data lane of the D2D interconnect link. The die may further transmit, concurrently with the data signal, a valid signal to the other die via a valid lane of the D2D interconnect link. The valid signal may change logical state at least once during the transmission of the data signal. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
