摘要
The DC offset of a differential signal can be changed by differentially shifting the DC offset of each of its signals. Techniques are presented for changing, in a controlled way, the DC offset of a differential signal as received by a receiver of a data transmission system. Several classes of example embodiments, utilizing digitally controllable voltage or current sources, are presented. The classes differ based upon such factors as coupling capacitor arrangement and use of termination resistors. Specific embodiments, within each class, differ based upon such factors as whether voltage or current sources are used and the characteristics of such sources. Once the DC offset of a differential signal has been changed, the effect of such change on a performance metric can be measured. Example applications include the ability to determine a differential signal level that results in BER having a particular level and determination of differential signal margin.
