Abstract: Examples herein describe techniques for isolating portions of an IC that include sensitive components (e.g., inductors or capacitors) from return current in a grounding plane. An output current generated by a transmitter or driver in an IC can generate a magnetic field which induces return current in the grounding plane. If the return current is proximate the sensitive components, the return current can inject noise which can negatively impact other components in the IC. To isolate the sensitive components from the return current, embodiments herein include forming slots through the grounding structure which includes the grounding plane on one or more sides of the sensitive components.

Abstract: An example method of clock and data recovery in a receiver includes generating data samples and crossing samples of a received signal based on a data clock signal and a crossing clock signal, respectively, which are derived from a sampling clock signal; adjusting a phase of the sampling clock signal using a clock and data recovery (CDR) circuit based on the data samples and the crossing samples; adjusting relative phase between the data clock signal and the crossing clock signal from a first phase difference to a second phase difference that is less than ninety degrees; and reverting the relative phase between the data clock signal and the crossing clock signal to the first phase difference after a threshold time period.

Abstract: An example method of clock and data recovery in a receiver includes generating data samples and crossing samples of a received signal based on a data phase and a crossing phase, respectively, of a sampling clock supplied by a phase interpolator in the receiver; generating a phase detect result signal in response to phase detection of the data samples and the crossing samples; filtering the phase detect result signal to generate a phase interpolator code, the phase interpolator generating the sampling clock based on the phase interpolator code; determining an average phase detect result from the phase detect result signal; and adjusting the phase interpolator code in response to the average phase detect result being less than a threshold value.

Abstract: A receiver relates generally to channel adaptation. In this receiver, a first signal processing block is coupled to a communications channel. The first signal processing block includes: an AGC block and a CTLE block for receiving a modulated signal for providing an analog signal; an ADC for converting the analog signal to digital samples; and an FFE block for equalizing the digital samples to provide equalized samples. A second signal processing block includes: a DFE block for receiving the equalized sampled for providing re-equalized samples; and a slicer coupled to the DFE block for slicing the re-equalized samples. A receiver adaptation block is coupled to the first signal processing block and the second signal processing block. The receiver adaptation block is configured for providing an AGC adaptation, a CTLE adaptation, and a slicer adaptation to the communications channel.

Abstract: Clock data recovery can be accomplished using a phase change determination circuit that generates, based upon detected phase differences between a capture clock signal and data signal, a delta signal and a delta selection signal. A calculation circuit generates a set of phase interpolation (PI) codes from prior and speculative values of the delta signal. A selection circuit selects, in response to the delta selection signal, between the sets of PI codes, which are provided as an output of the clock data recovery device.
