Abstract:
An operation method of a receiver, which includes setting a coefficient of an equalizer based on one of a plurality of first codes, setting a coefficient of an amplifier based on one of a plurality of second codes, performing offset calibration by driving the equalizer and the amplifier based on the coefficient of the equalizer and the coefficient of the amplifier, storing an offset code corresponding to a voltage offset generated when the equalizer and the amplifier are driven, determining whether the offset calibration is completed, performing a normal operation of obtaining reception data from an input signal, in response to determining that the offset calibration is completed, and removing the voltage offset based on the offset code, in the normal operation.
Abstract:
An image sensor is provided. The image sensor includes a converter configured to convert a photoelectric converted analog signal in a unit pixel into a digital signal including a plurality of bits, a data transfer unit configured to selectively output the converted digital signal output from the converter in units of bits in response to a control signal, and including a plurality of switching circuits which are serially connected; and a memory configured to store data output from the data transfer unit.
Abstract:
An integrated circuit comprises a first signal transfer block comprising first through (M)-th aligning blocks that are cascade-coupled to produce first aligned control signals through (M)-th aligned control signals, respectively, by aligning first control signals with a clock signal, wherein M is an integer greater than one, and a functional block divided into first through (M)-th sub-functional blocks configured to perform a same function in parallel, each of the first through (M)-th sub-functional blocks operating according to corresponding ones of the first aligned control signals through (M)-th aligned control signals generated by the first through (M)-th aligning blocks.
