  • Patent number: 12388490
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for performing efficient data transfer in a computing system are disclosed. A computing system includes multiple transmitters sending singled-ended data signals to multiple receivers. In order to better handle noise issues when using single-ended signaling, one or more of the receivers include equalization circuitry and termination circuitry. The termination circuitry prevents reflection on a corresponding transmission line ending at a corresponding receiver. The equalization circuitry uses a bridged T-coil circuit to provide continuous time linear equalization (CTLE) with no feedback loop. The equalization circuitry performs equalization by providing a high-pass filter that offsets the low-pass characteristics of a corresponding transmission line. A comparator of the receiver receives the input signal and compares it to a reference voltage.

  • Patent number: 12283936
    Abstract: Systems and methods combine a test signal with a wanted (downlink or uplink) signal at an input of a duplexer of a communication device, and receive the test signal at an output of the duplexer. The test signal may include a radio frequency signal having less power than the wanted signal to avoid interference, or a digital signal that is added to or extracted from the wanted signal when the wanted signal does not have a radio frequency. A processor of the communication device causes the duplexer to operate in a tuning state (e.g., to transmit signals having a transmission frequency and receive signals having a receive frequency). The measurement system determines a difference or ratio in power between the test signal at the duplexer output and the duplexer input, and adjusts the tuning state based on the difference or ratio (e.g., to decrease or minimize the difference or ratio).
