    Abstract: An apparatus for correcting an error of a clock signal may include a phase adjuster that corrects an error of half-rate clock signals based on an error correction signal to output an error-corrected clock signal, a phase splitter that outputs quadrature clock signals from the error-corrected clock signal, an error detector that outputs an internal clock signal based on one of the quadrature clock signals, selects two quadrature clock signals among the quadrature clock signals based on a clock selection signal, and detects errors of the two quadrature clock signals based on an error check signal to output a correction request signal, and a controller that outputs a mode selection signal and the clock selection signal based on the internal clock signal and that outputs the error correction signal and the error check signal based on the mode selection signal, the clock selection signal, and the correction request signal.

    Abstract: A transmitter includes a multiplexer, control logic and a voltage mode driver. The multiplexer generates a plurality of time-interleaved data signals based on a plurality of input data signals and multi-phase clock signals. The plurality of input data signals are input in parallel. Each of the plurality of input data signals is a binary signal and has two voltage levels that are different from each other. The control logic generates at least one pull-down control signal and a plurality of pull-up control signals based on the plurality of time-interleaved data signals. Each of the plurality of pull-up control signals has a voltage level that is temporarily boosted. The voltage mode driver generates an output data signal based on the at least one pull-down control signal and the plurality of pull-up control signals. The output data signal is a duobinary signal and has three voltage levels that are different from each other.
