    Abstract: A device includes a first bias level generator to generate a first bias level of a plurality of bias levels and transmit the bias level having a first voltage value, a second bias level generator to generate a second bias level of the plurality of bias levels and transmit the second bias level having a second voltage value. The device also includes a voltage divider that interpolates a subset of bias levels of the plurality of bias levels between the first bias level and the second bias level and supplies a selected bias level of the plurality of bias levels a control signal to an adjustment circuit of a decision feedback equalizer to compensate for inter-symbol interference of a bit due to a previously received bit of a bit stream.

    Abstract: A continuous time linear equalization (CTLE) system is provided. The CTLE system includes a first adjustable circuit comprising a first adjustable resistive-capacitive (RC) source degeneration circuit and a first differential amplifier stage circuit. The CTLE system also includes a second adjustable circuit electrically coupled to the first adjustable circuit and configured to adjust a frequency suppression of a data signal received by the CTLE system. The CTLE system is configured to provide a gain-versus-frequency curve for the data signal based on adjustments to the first adjustable circuit, adjustments to the second adjustable circuit, or a combination thereof.

    Abstract: Systems and methods include receiving data bits at an input pin of a semiconductor device from a host device. The received data is latched in latch circuitries of the semiconductor device that at least partially implements an equalizer to aid in interpreting the received data bits. A first latched bit latched from the first received bit of the received bits is transmitted from the latch circuitries to self-calibration circuitry. The first received bit is also latched in error evaluation circuitry as a second latched bit. The second latched bit is transmitted from the error evaluation circuitry to the self-calibration circuitry. The self-calibration circuitry determines settings for the equalizer without involving the host device in determining the settings after the host device sends the data bits.
