Abstract :
This work proposes an adaptive equalizer employing a new overshoot control for achieving optimized equalization. The proposed overshoot detection scheme obviates the need for slicers to achieve high-speed operation with low power dissipation. The circuit adapts to FR4 trace lengths for up to 40 inches. The measurement results show that the equalizer achieves a good eye performance while consuming 40mW from a 1.8V supply.
