Abstract: A data communication interface has a delay-locked loop configured to generate a receive clock signal based on timing information provided by a signal received over a clock channel of a data communication link, a phase interpolator configured to provide a phase-shifted clock signal by phase-shifting one or more edges in the receive clock signal based on timing of transitions in a data signal received over a data channel of the data communication link, a clock and data recovery circuit configured to capture data from the data signal using the phase-shifted clock signal, and a calibration circuit. The calibration circuit is configured to calibrate the delay-locked loop while the clock and data recovery circuit is in an idle state, recalibrate the delay-locked loop when the clock and data recovery circuit is activated, and calibrate the clock and data recovery circuit after recalibrating the delay-locked loop.

Abstract: A clock generator circuit may include a multiplex circuit and a phase-locked loop circuit. The multiplex circuit may generate a reference clock signal for the phase-locked loop circuit by selecting one of different clock signals. In response to a switch of the reference clock signal from one clock signal to another, the phase-locked loop circuit may disable phase-locking and enter into a frequency acquisition mode during which the frequency of the phase-locked loop circuit's output clock signal is adjusted based on the frequency of the newly selected reference clock signal. After a period of time has elapsed, the phase-locked loop circuit returns to phase-locking operation.

Abstract: A signaling system includes a pre-emphasizing transmitter and an equalizing receiver coupled to one another via a high-speed signal path. The receiver measures the quality of data conveyed from the transmitter. A controller uses this information and other information to adaptively establish appropriate transmit pre-emphasis and receive equalization settings, e.g. to select the lowest power setting for which the signaling system provides some minimum communication bandwidth without exceeding a desired bit-error rate.

Abstract: A receiver with clock phase calibration. A first sampling circuit generates first digital data based on an input signal, a sampling phase of the first sampling circuit controlled by a first clock signal. A second sampling circuit generates second digital data based on the input signal, a sampling phase of the second sampling circuit controlled by a second clock signal. Circuitry within the receiver calibrates the clocks in different stages. During a first calibration stage, a phase of the second clock signal is adjusted while the first digital data is selected for generating the output data. During a second calibration stage, a phase of the first clock signal is adjusted while the first digital data is selected for the output data path.

Abstract: A receiver serial data streams generates a local timing reference clock from an approximate frequency reference clock by phase-aligning the local clock to transitions in the data stream. This process is commonly known as clock and data recovery (CDR). Certain transitions of the data signals are selected for use in phase-aligning the local clock, and certain transitions are ignored. Phase-error signals from multiple receivers receiving the multiple serial data streams are combined and used to make common phase adjustments to the frequency reference clock. These common adjustments track jitter that is common to the received data streams. Local adjustments that better align each respective local clock to the transitions of its respective serial data stream are made using a local phase-error signal. These local adjustments track jitter that is more unique to each of the respective serial data streams.
