Abstract: A latch device includes a differential pair, a differential circuit, and a clock gate circuit. The differential pair receives differential input signals, and the differential circuit performs a logic operation on the differential input signals. The clock gate circuit is configured to supply a supply voltage from the power supply node to the first connection node according to a clock signal. The clock gate circuit includes a reference-independent circuit and a reference-dependent circuit. The reference-independent circuit is configured to control a first electrical path between the power supply node and the first connection node according to the clock signal. The reference-dependent circuit is configured to control a second electrical path between the power supply node and the first connection node according to the clock signal and a first control signal, wherein the first control signal is determined according to a voltage level of one of the differential input signals.

Abstract: Digital receiver systems and clock recovery techniques for use in digital receiver systems are provided to implement asynchronous baud-rate clock recovery systems for high data rate serial receivers multilevel line modulation. A two-stage postcursor ISI equalization system is provided to efficiently emulate a 4-level DFE (decision feedback equalization) system, for example, while converting a 4-level equalized signal to s 2-level equalized signal. For example, a two stage postcursor ISI equalization system includes a DFE stage which operates on a most significant component of a given 4-level data symbol, followed by a DFFE (decision-feedforward equalizer) stage which operates on a least significant component of the given 4-level data symbol. In parallel with the DFFE stage, an estimate of the least significant component is subtracted from the equalized 4-level data symbol to convert the 4-level data symbol to a 2-level symbol.
