초록

0.13${\mu}m$ CMOS 공정을 이용하여 백플레인 응용 분야를 위한 5Gbps 고속 적응형 피드포워드 이퀄라이저를 설계하였다. 설계된 이퀄라이저는 클럭 복원 회로의 위상 검출기 출력을 이용하여 인접 심벌간의 간섭 정도를 판단하고 이퀄라이저의 보상 이득을 조절하는 피드백 회로를 갖는다. 이를 통해 여러 길이의 백플레인 채널 환경에 적합한 보상 이득을 제공하는 적응 동작을 한다.

A 5Gbps CMOS adaptive feed-forward equalizer designed for backplane applications is described. The equalizer has adaptive feedback circuits to control the compensating gain of the equalizing filter, which uses a phase detector in clock recovery circuit to detect ISI (Inter-Symbol Interference) level. This makes the equalizer operate adaptively for a various channel length of backplane environments.
