  • Digitization apparatus and method using a finite state machine in feedback loop
    Patent number: 6496126
    Abstract: A data slice circuit and the method thereof The data slice circuit comprises a digitizer, a finite state machine, and a digitizer parameter adjustment element. The digitizer receives an analog signal and converts to a digital signal. The finite state machine generates a state signal in response to the digital signal. The digitizer parameter adjustment element generates a parameter adjustment signal in response to the state signal from the finite state machine. The digital signal of the digitizer is adjusted in accordance with the parameter adjustment signal.
    Type: Grant
