    Abstract: An output driver includes a pre driver including pre driving circuits, each including first and second pre pumps, and a main driver including main driving circuits, each including first and second main pumps. Each of the first and second pre pumps includes a first driving capacitor, and each of the first and second main pumps includes a second driving capacitor. During a first half cycle of a clock signal, the first pre pump and the first main pump perform a precharge operation, and the second pre pump and the second main pump perform a first driving operation, and during a second half cycle of the clock signal, the first pre pump and the first main pump perform the first driving operation, and the second pre pump and the second main pump perform the precharge operation. Capacitances of the first and second driving capacitors are different.

    Abstract: A signal receiving device may not need to consider jitter characteristics of a received signal by including a transition detecting device which receives first to third input signals having different signal levels for each unit interval, compares whether a signal level of a first differential signal, which is a differential signal between the first input signal and the second input signal among the first to third input signals, is greater than a first reference signal level to output a first comparison signal, and compares whether the signal level of the first differential signal is greater than a second reference signal level different from the first reference signal level to output a second comparison signal, and a clock data recovering device which recovers a clock signal embedded in the first to third input signals on the basis of the first and second comparison signals to output the recovery clock signal.

    Abstract: A data interface includes a first sampler sampling a first bitset and a second sampler sampling a second bitset. The first bitset includes a first bit which is included in a first image data and a third bit which is included in a second image, and the second bitset includes a second bit which is included in the first image data and is a higher-order bit than the first bit and a fourth bit which is included in the second image data and is a higher-order bit than the third bit. The data interface further includes a clock generator configured to adjust a sampling timing of the first and second bitsets based on a multi-phase clock, and a clock data recovery (CDR) circuit shared by the first sampler, the second sampler and configured to output the multi-phase clock to the clock generator.

    Abstract: A clock data recovery circuit includes a sampler to sample incoming data bits, a phase detector to generate an edge position signal and a polarity signal based on the sampled incoming data, a finite state machine to save a current edge position state, a polarity decision unit to generate a polarity inversion signal to invert the polarity signal, a gain controller to generate a tracking bandwidth signal, a recovery loop configured to adjust an edge offset of the reference clock, and a bit selector configured to recover the incoming data. The clock data recovery circuit has a first latency at a first operation mode and a second latency at a second operation mode. The phase detector in the clock data recovery circuit may include a first phase detector and a second detector combined together for a low latency and low lock time of the clock data recovery circuit.
