摘要： The present invention addresses the generation of a controlled clock source for use in trimming VCDL delay line output clocks. In this trimming process, adjustments are made for static variations in these output clocks. The invention's use of a controlled clock source eliminates the need for this trimming process to be conducted in real time and reduces the expense of the circuitry required.

摘要： In described embodiments, a communication system employing, for example, clock and data recovery (CDR) detects and applies correction for DC offset in an input data stream signal, termed as “DC offset calibration”. DC offset calibration applies static calibration for DC offset in input circuits, such as an input amplifier and detection latches, without input data, and applies statistical calibration for DC offset during operation with an input data stream to correct for dynamic shifts in DC level. Such DC offset calibration employs data eye measurements of the input data stream for detection of DC offset, and applies an opposite DC offset to maintain a relatively balanced data eye during live traffic.

摘要： Methods and apparatus are provided for monitoring and compensating for skew on a high speed parallel bus. Delay skew for a plurality of signals on a parallel bus is monitored by obtaining a plurality of samples of the plurality of signals for each unit interval; and identifying a location of transitions in the plurality of signals based on the samples. The samples can be obtained, for example, by sampling the plurality of signals using a plurality of latches and estimating a value of one or more of the plurality of signals by comparing values of the latches. A microprocessor can optionally be employed to determine a relative distribution of transitions in the plurality of signals and to align transitions in the plurality of signals to a common position. The transitions in the plurality of signals can be aligned to a common position by adjusting a delay control setting for a buffer associated with each of the plurality of signals.

摘要： Methods and apparatus are provided for determining a position of an offset latch employed for decision-feedback equalization. The position of an offset latch is determined by obtaining a plurality of samples of a data eye associated with a signal, the data eye comprised of a plurality of trajectories for transitions out of a given binary state; determining an amplitude of at least two of the trajectories based on the samples; and determining a position of an offset latch based on the determined amplitudes. The initial position of the offset latch can be placed, for example, approximately in the middle of the determined amplitudes for at least two of the trajectories. The initial position of the offset latch can be optionally skewed by a predefined amount to improve the noise margin.

摘要： Methods and apparatus are provided for adjusting receiver gain based on received signal envelope detection. The gain of a received signal is adjusted by obtaining a plurality of samples of the received signal for a given unit interval; determining an amplitude of the received signal based on the samples; and adjusting a receiver gain based on the determined amplitude. The received signal can be sampled, for example, using a plurality of latches. The value of the received signal can then be estimated by evaluating one or more of the latch values. Once the amplitude of the received signal is determined, one or more latches can be positioned at a desired target amplitude and the receiver gain can be adjusted until the amplitude of the received signal is within a desired tolerance of the specified target value.

摘要： In training a SERDES, a Common Electrical Interface (CEI) training frame, having certain bits of information embedded therein, is transmitted over a path which comprises transmitter, channel, and receiver components. The present invention analyzes the resulting received signal and determines the effective aggregate channel impulse response of these three components. The invention then determines an estimate of the inverse of this aggregate channel and uses this determination to reduce distortions that have been introduced into a signal that has been transmitted over the path.

摘要： The present invention is used to automatically calibrate a SERDES device by utilizing information provided in the eye diagram of the received signal. In particular, the invention mitigates the components of determininistic jitter, such as ISI and frequency distortion. To achieve this goal, the invention enables the receive side of the SERDES to evaluate the quality of the eye received using a cost function. The invention calculates the cost function associated with the received data and then uses this information to effect an auto calibration of the SERDES device.
