    摘要: An example method for clock and data recovery (CDR) includes generating, in a set of slicers of a receiver, in addition to a data signal and a first error signal, at least one additional error signal. The method further includes receiving, at a frequency detector (FD) of a CDR unit of the receiver, the data signal, the first error signal, and the at least one additional error signal, and processing them to generate a FD output. The method still further includes multiplying the FD output by a user-defined FD gain, and adding the FD output, as multiplied by the FD gain, in a frequency path of the CDR unit.

    摘要: A receiver circuit for receiving data is described. The receiver circuit comprises a phase detector configured to receive an input data signal; a frequency path circuit configured to receive an output of the phase detector; and a false lock detection circuit configured to receive the output of the phase detector and an output of the frequency path circuit; wherein the false lock detection circuit detects a false lock of the receiver circuit to the input data signal based upon an output of the phase detector and provides a frequency offset to the frequency path circuit. A method of receiving data is also described.

    摘要: Examples described herein generally relate to a temperature-locked loop for optical elements. In an example, a device includes a controller and a digital-to-analog converter (DAC). The controller includes a DC-controllable transimpedance stage (DCTS), a slicer circuit, and a processor. The DCTS is configured to be coupled to a photodiode. An input node of the slicer circuit is coupled to an output node of the DCTS. The processor has an input node coupled to an output node of the slicer circuit. The DAC has an input node coupled to an output node of the processor and is configured to be coupled to a heater. The processor is configured to control (i) the DCTS to reduce a DC component of a signal on the output node of the DCTS and (ii) an output voltage on the output node of the DAC, both based on a signal output by the slicer circuit.
