Patent number: 11588487Abstract: An eye opening monitor device and an operation method thereof are provided. The eye opening monitor device includes a phase interpolator, a first sampling circuit, a second sampling circuit, and a clock centering circuit. The first sampling circuit samples a data signal according to a data clock to generate first sampled data. The second sampling circuit samples the data signal according to a phase interpolation clock to generate second sampled data. The phase interpolator changes a phase of the phase interpolation clock according to a phase interpolation code. The clock centering circuit counts multiple comparison results of the first sampled data and the second sampled data in multiple clock cycles to obtain an error count value for any one of different phase interpolation codes. The clock centering circuit determines the phase interpolation code provided to the phase interpolator based on the error count values corresponding to different phase interpolation codes.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2021Date of Patent: February 21, 2023Assignee: Faraday Technology Corp.Inventors: Prateek Kumar Goyal, Chienlung Kung

Patent number: 11044124Abstract: A dynamic module and a decision feedback equalizer are provided. The decision feedback equalizer includes two dynamic modules, which have symmetric circuits and connections. The dynamic module includes a first domino circuit, a second domino circuit, and a storage circuit. In response to a first previous decision bit and a second previous decision bit, a first multiplexer output and a second multiplexer output are generated. The dynamic module alternatively operates in an evaluation period and a precharge period, depending on a clock signal. In the evaluation period, the first and the second multiplexer outputs are updated by the first domino circuit and the second domino circuit. In the precharge period, the first and the second multiplexer outputs are held by the storage circuit.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2020Date of Patent: June 22, 2021Assignee: FARADAY TECHNOLOGY CORPORATIONInventor: Prateek Kumar Goyal

Patent number: 9742596Abstract: A decision feedback equalizer includes a positive signal line, a negative signal line, a sense amplifier, a feedback driver, a load unit, a differential driver, and a charge pump. The differential driver maintains a difference between the first voltage of the positive signal line and the second voltage of the negative signal line at a last time point of the normal period to be equal to or greater than the reference voltage by adjusting strength of the positive input current corresponding to a positive input signal and strength of the negative input current corresponding to a negative input signal based on a temperature signal. The charge pump provides a positive offset voltage and a negative offset voltage to the positive signal line and the negative signal line, respectively. The positive offset voltage and the negative offset voltage are used to maintain an average voltage of the first voltage and the second voltage at the last time point of the normal period at a first value.Type: GrantFiled: March 24, 2016Date of Patent: August 22, 2017Assignee: SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.Inventors: Prateek Kumar Goyal, Kang-Jik Kim, Jae-Hyun Park, Chang-Kyung Seong, Hwang-Ho Choi
