Description

Low-voltage broadband linear equalizer circuit applied to high-speed serial interface
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of integrated circuits, and particularly relates to a low-voltage broadband linear equalizer circuit applied to a high-speed serial interface.
Background
The transmitting and receiving channels of high-speed serial data introduce many non-ideal factors in the signal transmission process, such as skin effect and dielectric loss inherent in transmission media such as printed circuit board wiring, backplane wiring and cables. The effects of these non-idealities deteriorate as the serial data rate increases, causing the channel to exhibit a low-pass characteristic in the frequency domain, attenuating high frequency portions of the serial data. In the time domain, Inter-Symbol-Interference (ISI) appears to degrade the performance of the received serial data eye and increase the Bit Error Rate (BER) of the received data. In the same channel, the higher the speed of transmitting serial data is, the greater the high-frequency attenuation is, and the more serious the intersymbol interference is; for serial signals of the same rate, the longer the channel is passed or the worse the channel characteristics are, the greater the high frequency attenuation is, and the more serious the intersymbol interference is.
The linear equalizer circuit is one of important means for solving intersymbol Interference at a high-speed serial data receiving end, and aims at different attenuation of a high-frequency part and a low-frequency part in a received signal caused by channel low-pass characteristics, the high-frequency part of an input signal is amplified or the low-frequency part of the input signal is attenuated, high-frequency attenuation introduced by a channel is compensated, the influence of intersymbol Interference (ISI) is reduced, and the Bit Error Rate (BER) is reduced.
The conventional linear equalizer circuit generally adopts a cml (current Mode logic) structure having a source end negative feedback resistor and a source end negative feedback capacitor, and compensates for high frequency attenuation introduced by a channel by additionally introducing a pair of zero and pole. With the continuous improvement of the transmission rate of serial data, the bandwidth design requirement of the linear equalizer circuit is continuously improved, and meanwhile, the gain requirement for high-frequency compensation of the input signal of the receiving end is also continuously improved, and the compromise between the gain and the bandwidth becomes more and more difficult. In addition, as advanced manufacturing processes are developed, the supply voltage provided by the processes is continuously reduced. And entering a deep submicron process, wherein the power supply voltage is mostly lower than 1V and 20 nm, the power supply voltage is lower than 0.9V, and the design margin is further limited by the requirement of low power supply voltage. Therefore, the current linear equalizer circuit applied to the high-speed serial interface is faced with the design requirement of realizing high bandwidth under low power supply voltage.
