CONTINUOUS RECEIVER CLOCK ALIGNMENT AND EQUALIZATION OPTIMIZATION

摘要

The available bandwidth of an Input/Output (I/O) communications link is increased by removing the need for retraining events on a communications link. This results in removing a potentially severe system performance degradation penalty that may occur from data traffic stoppage during the retraining events. The available bandwidth is further increased by removing a timing error which results in increasing a timing margin for other components. This results in an increase in the maximum speed of systems with high speed I/O and communication transceiver Integrated Circuits (IC)s.
