A wireline receiver complexity reduction approach achieved by using hysteretic extraction of the error for phase detection is presented in this paper. The approach is based on the utilization of the data slicers intended for speculative level detection to perform a hysteretic estimation of the error signal. Simulation results showed better jitter tolerance and better eye margin for the proposed hysteretic receiver compared to prior approaches for low loss channels, while reducing the complexity by 64%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
