    摘要: Apparatus and methods are disclosed, such as those involving a receiver device. One such apparatus includes an equalizer configured to process an input signal transmitted over a channel. The equalizer can include a programmable gain amplifier (PGA) block which includes an input node configured to receive the input signal; an output node; and a programmable gain amplifier (PGA). The PGA amplifies the input signal with an adjustable gain. The PGA block also includes a gain control block having an input electrically coupled to the input node. The gain control block is configured to adjust the gain of the PGA at least partly in response to the input signal from the input node such that the PGA generates an output signal with a substantially constant amplitude envelope to the output node.

    摘要: A system and method of calibration develops a function from which is generated a monotonic time response; a gating period is defined from the monotonic time response and any error in the frequency of a reference signal is determined during the gating period; from that error an error signal is generated for adjusting the time constant of a circuit to be calibrated.

    摘要: A method of operating a circuit for processing a digital signal is disclosed. The circuit includes various circuit stages having respective enabled states. A present signal path is established which includes circuit stages in their respective enabled states. Power is disabled to selected circuit stages not used in the present signal path so as to minimize power consumption in the disabled circuit stages. A data signal is then processed through the circuit stages in the present signal path. Before a next signal path is needed, power is re-enabled to selected disabled circuit stages in the next signal path to allow the enabled circuit stages to approach their respective enabled states. Then the next signal path can be established including the enabled circuit stages in their respective enabled states. The data signal can then be processed through the circuit stages in the next signal path.
