TECHNOLOGIES FOR CONFIGURING TRANSMITTER EQUALIZATION IN A COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

Technologies for transmitter equalization in a communication system include reading local transmitter equalization settings from a transmitter equalization register of a first communication device and writing the local transmitter equalization settings to a transmitter equalization register of a second communication device communicatively coupled with the first communication device via a chip-to-chip communication link. Additionally, requested transmitter equalization settings may be read from the transmitter equalization register of the second communication device and written to the transmitter equalization register of the first communication device. The reading and writing process may be repeated for the opposite communication direction and for other communication lane interfaces of the first and second communication devices.

主权项

1. A station management entity of a communication controller of a communication system for performing transmitter equalization, the station management entity comprising:
a transmitter equalization module to: read, via a dedicated communication bus established between the station management entity and a plurality of communication devices of the communication system, local transmitter equalization settings from a first transmitter equalization register of a first communication lane interface of a first communication device; and write, via the dedicated communication bus, the local transmitter equalization settings of the first communication lane interface of the first communication device to a first transmitter equalization register of a first communication lane interface of a second communication device, wherein the first communication lane interface of the first communication device is communicatively coupled with the first communication lane interface of the second communication device via a chip-to-chip communication link different from the dedicated communication bus.
