Abstract:
Millimeter wave (mmWave) technology, apparatuses, and methods that relate to transceivers, receivers, and antenna structures for wireless communications are described. The various aspects include co-located millimeter wave (mmWave) and near-field communication (NFC) antennas, scalable phased array radio transceiver architecture (SPARTA), phased array distributed communication system with MIMO support and phase noise synchronization over a single coax cable, communicating RF signals over cable (RFoC) in a distributed phased array communication system, clock noise leakage reduction, IF-to-RF companion chip for backwards and forwards compatibility and modularity, on-package matching networks, 5G scalable receiver (Rx) architecture, among others.
Abstract:
Some embodiments include apparatus and methods having an input to receive an input signal, additional inputs to receive clock signals having different phases to sample the input signal, and a decision feedback equalizer (DFE) having DFE slices. The DFE slices include a number of data comparators to provide data information based on the sampling of the input signal, and a number of phase error comparators to provide phase error information associated with the sampling of the input signal. The number of phase error comparators of the DFE slices is not greater than the number of data comparators of the DFE slices.

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:
Embodiments include a resistor, coupled on a signal path, that includes one or more resistive memory elements, such as one or more magnetic tunnel junctions (Mils). The resistance of the resistive memory elements may be digitally trimmable to adjust a resistance of the resistor on the signal path. The resistor may be incorporated into an analog or mixed signal circuit to pass an analog signal on the signal path. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
