ABSTRACT:
Equalization is provided in a high speed communication receiver that includes in various aspects an automatic gain control input stage, a decision feedback equalizer, a clock and data recovery circuit and equalization control circuits. The automatic gain control stage may include a continuous time filter with an adjustable bandwidth. A threshold adjust signal may be applied to the output of the automatic gain control stage. The equalization control circuits may be implemented in the digital domain and operate at a lower clock speed than the data path.
