摘要: A clockless delay adaptation loop configured to adapt to random data includes a first and a second delay line, an autocorrelator, and a controller. The autocorrelator receives an input signal for the delay adaptation loop and the output from the first delay line, and includes a first logic circuit configured to output a first autocorrelation and a second logic circuit configured to output a second autocorrelation. The controller is configured generate a control signal for one of the first and second delay lines based on the first and second autocorrelations. In some examples, the first logic circuit is an XNOR gate, and the second logic circuit is an OR gate. In some examples, the OR gate can have a gain that is two times a gain of the XNOR gate. In some examples, an amplifier having two times the gain of the XNOR gate is coupled to the OR gate.

摘要: An N-tap feedforward equalizer (FFE) comprises a set of N FFE taps coupled together in parallel, a filter coupled between the (N−1)th FFE tap and the Nth FFE tap, and a summer coupled to an output of the set of N FFE taps. Each FFE tap includes a unique sample-an-hold (S/H) circuit that generates a unique time-delayed signal and a unique transconductance stage that generates a unique transconductance output based on the unique time-delayed signal. The filter causes the N-tap FFE to have the behavior of greater than N taps. In some examples, the filter is a first order high pass filter that causes coefficients greater than N to have an opposite polarity of the Nth coefficient. In some examples, the filter is a first order low pass filter that causes coefficients greater than N to have the same polarity as the Nth coefficient.

摘要: A linear retimer includes an equalizer, a clock recovery circuit, a sample and hold (S/H) circuit, and a linear driver. The equalizer receives an input signal and outputs an equalized signal. The clock recovery circuit receives the equalized signal and outputs a clock signal. The S/H circuit receives the equalized signal and the clock signal and outputs a retimed signal. The linear driver receives the retimed signal and outputs a recovered signal. The S/H circuit is configured to preserve a voltage of the equalized signal in the retimed signal. In some examples, the S/H circuit is part of a linear three-tap feedforward equalizer, and the linear driver receives an output of the feedforward equalizer. The linear retimer can be placed between a transmitter and a channel or after the channel.
