METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PROVIDING OPTIMUM DECISION FEEDBACK EQUALIZATION OF HIGH-SPEED SERIAL DATA LINKS

摘要

Computationally efficient methods and related systems, for use in a test and measurement instrument, such as an oscilloscope, optimize the performance of DFEs used in a high-speed serial data link by identifying optimal DFE tap values for peak-to-peak based criteria. The optimized DFEs comply with the behavior of a model DFE set forth in the PCIE 3.0 specification.
