    摘要: A phase interpolator for generating a phase interpolated output signal between two phase separated input signals received at two phase separated input signal nodes may include a plurality of circuit elements. The plurality of circuit elements may include at least one of resistors or capacitors, in a series arrangement between the two phase separated input signal nodes, where respective connection points between respective ones of the plurality of circuit elements may provide at least one intermediate phase interpolated signal. The phase interpolator may also include selection circuitry, which may be configured to select the phase interpolated output signal from the at least one intermediate phase interpolated signal.

    摘要: A clock recovery circuit includes a clock detector configured to receive a serial data stream from a remote device over a reverse channel, wherein the serial data stream includes clock reference data, reverse channel data, or a combination of the clock reference data and the reverse channel data, and the clock detector configured to output a clock detect signal in response to detecting the clock reference data in the serial data stream; a phase lock loop including a first detector configured to receive the serial data stream and to detect phase and frequency; and a controller configured to receive the clock detect signal and to selectively enable the first detector based on the clock detect signal.

    摘要: An input signal is sampled at a current sampling phase by a sampler device of a receiver device. The sampled input signal is equalized by an adaptive equalizer of the receiver device. One or more parameters of the adaptive equalizer are adapted, based on the equalized input signal, under one or more adaptation constraints. Phase gradient information indicative of an offset of the current sampling phase from an optimal sampling phase is determined, and the one or more adaptation constraints of the adaptive equalizer are updated based on the phase gradient information to move the current sampling phase towards the optimal sampling phase.

    摘要: A system and method of clock and data recovery. In some embodiments, the method includes: setting a bias signal source to a first bias value, the bias signal source being connected to an input of a voltage-controlled oscillator of a clock and data recovery circuit; determining that a locked signal of a frequency feedback signal source equals a first feedback value; setting the bias signal source to a second bias value, different from the first bias value; determining that a locked signal of the frequency feedback signal source equals a second feedback value; determining that the second feedback value meets a termination criterion; and setting an operating value of the bias signal source to the second bias value.

    摘要: A transceiver includes a first transmit (Tx) component configured to connect to a second receive (Rx) component in a second transceiver; a first Rx component configured to connect to a second Tx component in the second transceiver; a single Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) circuit connected to both the first Tx component and the first Rx component; and a control circuit configured to continuously calibrate a first Look-Up Table (LUT) configured to feed operating codes to a first phase rotator connected to an output of the single PLL circuit and to one of the first Tx component and the first Rx component. In an embodiment, the control circuit is further configured to continuously calibrate a second LUT configured to feed operating codes to a second phase rotator connected to an output of a single PLL circuit in the second transceiver.

    摘要: A method of operating an interface device including a first elastic buffer is provided. The method of operating the interface device includes performing a link equalization operation, checking a transmission mode of the interface device, and determining a transmission parameter of the interface device based on a status of the first elastic buffer or a status of a second elastic buffer included in another interface device communicating with the interface device when the transmission mode is a transmission parameter adjustment mode.

    摘要: Provided are systems and methods for transmitting radio signals. A system for transmitting radio signals includes a base station and a customer premises equipment (CPE). The base station includes a first frequency converter and at least one first antenna. The first frequency converter is configured to receive a first radio signal having a predetermined frequency and convert the first radio signal into a second radio signal. The second radio signal has a frequency higher than the predetermined frequency. The at least one first antenna has a transmitter and is configured to wirelessly transmit, via the transmitter, the second radio signal to the CPE. The CPE includes at least one second antenna configured to receive the second radio signal from the at least one first antenna and a second frequency converter configured to convert the second radio signal into the first radio signal.
