    Abstract: A receiver for receiving a data signal, comprising, an analog-to-digital converter configured to convert the data signal into digital data, a first-in-first-out buffer configured to determine a frame boundary of the digital data by referring to a comma index to output the digital data in units of data frames according to the determined frame boundary, a decision feedback equalizer configured to process a data frame output from the first-in-first-out buffer through a decision feedback equalization operation, wherein feedback data used in the decision feedback equalization operation of the data frame uses a predetermined fixed pattern, and a comma detector configured to generate the comma index by comparing a determined value of the data frame with the predetermined fixed pattern. The data frame may include a preceding data field in which a message is stored and a subsequent comma field having the same bit value as the fixed pattern.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to successive approximation register analog-to-digital converters. An example successive approximation register analog-to-digital converter includes a first sampling and holding circuit that samples an analog signal at a first point in time and generates a first input voltage, a second sampling and holding circuit that samples the analog signal at a second point in time and generates a second input voltage, and a first analog-to-digital converter. The first analog-to-digital converter performs a feed forward equalization function by receiving the first input voltage and the second input voltage, sampling the first input voltage and the second input voltage, and outputting a multi-bit digital signal based on a sampling result of the first input voltage and a sampling result of the second input voltage.
