Abstract: A source device includes an adaptive link training circuity. The link training circuitry includes source capability information for link training of a link between the source device and a sink device. The source device includes a transmitter coupled to the adaptive link training circuitry to transmit the source capability information to the sink device. The adaptive link training circuitry is to initiate link training between the source device and the sink device, determine whether the link training between the source device and the sink device is unsuccessful, and in response to determining that the link training is unsuccessful, automatically adapt a setting of the link training based on the source capability information.

Abstract: A serial input/output method and receiver include an receiver portion to receive an analog differential serial input and sample the input to provide data and error signals, an equalization feedback loop responsive to the data and error signals to adjust the receiver portion, a phase feedback mechanism separate from the equalization feedback loop to provide a phase error, and a clock data recovery block coupled to receive the phase error to perform timing recovery for the receiver portion independent of the equalization feedback to adjust the sampling.

Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure include transmitter devices. The transmitter devices include a high-speed driver domain having a low-dropout regulator. The low-dropout regulator reduces a voltage level from an input voltage source to the high-speed driver domain. In addition, the transmitter devices include a low-speed driver domain. The low-speed driver domain includes a pre-driver which reduces a voltage level from an input voltage source to the low-speed driver domain.

Abstract: Techniques for adaptive backchannel equalization. A total equalization value is determined over a preselected training period. A total balance equalization value is determined over the preselected training period. A transmitter equalization coefficient is determined based on the total equalization value and the total balance equalization value. Data is transmitted over a serial link using the transmitter equalization coefficient.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus related to adaptive control loop protection for fast and robust recovery from low-power states in high speed serial I/O applications are described. In some embodiments, a first bit pattern is detected, at a first agent, that indicates a speculative entry by a second agent into a low power consumption state and one or more control loops are frozen. A second bit pattern is detected (after entering the low power consumption state) that indicates exit from the low power consumption state by the second agent and the one or more control loops are unfrozen (e.g., in a specific order). Other embodiments are also claimed and/or disclosed.
