    摘要: A parallel data link includes a redundant line. A bank of switches permits any arbitrary line of the link to be enabled or disabled for carrying functional data, each line being dynamically calibrated in turn by disabling the line and allowing other lines to carry the functional data. The switches are located downstream of alignment mechanisms so that data input to the switches is compensated for data skew. Preferably, receiver synchronization circuitry in each line operates in a respective independent clock domain, while the switches and calibration mechanism operate in a common clock domain. Preferably, the receiver synchronization circuits provide an adjustable delay corresponding to a variable number of clock cycles to align the outputs of the receiver synchronization circuits with respect to one another, which can accommodate high data skew.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus are provided for timing recovery for an input/output bus with link redundancy. A parallel input/output interface receiver includes a plurality of data receivers, each configured to respectively receive input data from a respective one of n+m channels, where n is an integer greater than one and m is an integer greater than or equal to one. The input data is non-calibration data for the n channels and is calibration data for the m channels. The interface receiver further includes a first phase adjustor configured to provide a first clock signal to the plurality of data receivers for sampling of only the non-calibration data at any given time, and a second phase adjustor configured to provide a second clock signal to the plurality of data receivers for sampling of only the calibration data at any given time.

    摘要: A decision feedback equalizer (DFE) and method including a branch coupled to an input and including a sample-and-hold element configured to receive and sample a received input signal from the input and a current-integrating summer. The current-integrating summer is coupled to an output of the sample-and-hold element. The summer is configured to receive and sum currents representing at least one previous decision and an input sample. The at least one previous decision and the input sample are integrated onto a node, wherein the input sample is held constant during an integration period, thereby mitigating the effects of input transitions on an output of the summer.
