Abstract: Charge pump circuitry is provided that is insensitive to charge sharing and current mismatch effects. The charge pump circuitry has an output node at which a charge pump output voltage is provided. A first current source charges the output node to increase the output voltage or a second current source discharge the output node to decrease the output voltage. The charge pump circuitry uses a unit-gain op-amp circuit to prevent charge sharing effects from affecting the output voltage when switching between discharging and charging operations. A low-pass filter is used to reduce feedback noise on the output node. A replica feedback circuit prevents current mismatch between the currents produced by the first and second current sources. The first and second current sources may be formed using programmable transistors that are adjusted by static control signals provided by programmable elements to further minimize current mismatch.

Abstract: A method and circuit for generating an adjustable delay signal is presented, wherein the delay can be linear and monotonic with high resolution delay steps. The circuit utilizes one or more serially coupled delay cells and a load cell. Each delay cell comprises an inverter, a nor-multiplexer, and a programmable capacitor, wherein a first control signal is used to control the operation of the nor-multiplexer and a second control signal is used to control capacitance of the programmable capacitor. Values of the first and the second control signals are selected based on any desired range of total delay time and any desired delay time for a specific application of the circuit.

Abstract: Methods and circuits are provided for producing phase-adjusted pre-emphasis and equalization. In applications in which little or no phase distortion occurs during signal transmission, propagation, or reception, linear-phase pre-emphasis or equalization can be used to reduce or eliminate phase distortion introduced by the pre-emphasis or equalization. Linear phase, constant group delay FIR filters or circuits may have odd numbers of coefficients symmetrical about the middle coefficient. In applications in which signal phase distortion occurs, linear phase or non-linear phase pre-emphasis or equalization can be used to reduce or compensate for the phase distortion. Phase compensation may be effected using FIR pre-emphasis and equalization filters and circuits. Non-linear phase FIR filters may have different numbers and combinations of coefficients.

Abstract: Duty cycle correction (DCC) methods and circuits are provided for improving the quality of clock signals and reducing or eliminating duty cycle distortion. The performance of known duty cycle correction circuits, such as cross-coupled inverter or transmission gate DCC circuits, may be improved by coupling two or more DCC circuits in series to form a multi-stage DCC circuit. In multi-stage DCC circuits, the performance and sizing requirements imposed on the individual circuit stages are reduced as compared to single-stage DCC circuit implementations. Good duty cycle correction performance over a wide range of input signal duty cycles may therefore be ensured regardless of the performance of individual stages. Clocked-CMOS DCC circuits are also presented, the circuits operative to produce duty cycle corrected output signals while consuming minimal current and power. The clocked-CMOS DCC circuits include as few as four transistors, and are operative over wide ranges of input signal duty cycles.

Abstract: A reduced power differential type termination circuit for use in SSTL, HSTL and other transmission line systems reduces power consumption. A differential type termination circuit may comprise first and second nodes for coupling, respectively, to first and second transmission lines; a first impedance coupled between the first transmission line and a third node; a second impedance coupled between the second transmission line and the third node; and a low direct current reference voltage generator for generating a reference voltage applied to the third node. The first and second transmission lines may transmit complimentary signals. The first and second impedances may be symmetric or asymmetric. The first impedance may match the second impedance. The first and second impedances may, respectively, match the impedances of the first and second transmission lines. The first and/or second impedances may include a bidirectional switch, such as a transmission gate, to enable and disable the termination circuit.

Abstract: A built-in, at-speed BERT is provided that may be part of high-speed serial interface circuitry implemented on an integrated circuit. The built-in, at-speed BERT takes advantage of an existing clock data recovery (CDR) dual-loop architecture and built-in self test (BIST) circuitry. The built-in, at-speed BERT provides a low-cost solution for production testing of high-speed serial links, facilitating jitter analysis and evaluation of pre-emphasis and equalization performance. This further allows adaptation of pre-emphasis and equalization.

Abstract: Equalization circuitry that includes an analog equalizer and a decision feedback equalizer (DFE) is provided for high-speed backplane data communication. The analog equalizer reduces the number of taps that are required by the DFE, which lessens the error propagation of the DFE. Furthermore, the DFE includes a summing circuit and flip-flop circuitry. The flip-flop circuitry may be used as part of a phase detector by clock and data recovery circuitry. The summing circuit may further be embedded into the flip-flop circuitry to reduce the feedback path delay, thereby allowing for higher speed operation. The DFE may be extended to multiple taps by including additional flip-flops.
