  • Patent number: 11005643
    Abstract: A communication receiving device includes a clock data recovery circuit, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), a channel evaluating circuit, a first equalizer, and a selector. The clock data recovery circuit is configured to generate a clock signal according to a first digital signal. The ADC is coupled to the clock data recovery circuit, and configured to convert a first analog signal to a second digital signal according to the clock signal. The channel evaluating circuit is configured to analyze the second digital signal to output a selection signal. The first equalizer is coupled to the ADC, and configured to equalize the second digital signal to generate a third digital signal. The selector is coupled between the first equalizer, the ADC, and the clock data recovery circuit. The selector is configured to output the second digital signal or the third digital signal as the first digital signal according to the selection signal.

  • Patent number: 10735149
    Abstract: An eye diagram measurement device includes a first mapping circuitry, a count circuitry, a second mapping circuitry and a memory circuitry. The first mapping circuitry maps one of plurality of internal signals of an electronic device to a first data signal having a predetermined number of bits. The counter circuitry performs a counting operation according to the first data signal and a plurality of signal values associated with the predetermined number of bits, to generate a plurality of count signals. The second mapping circuitry maps the count signals respectively to a plurality of eye diagram measurement signals corresponding to a present phase. The memory circuitry stores the eye diagram measurement signals in order to provide the eye diagram measurement signals to an external system for generating an eye diagram measurement result of the electronic device.
