0.18 μm CMOS backplane receiver with decision-feedback equalisation embedded

Decision-feedback equalisation (DFE) is explored to reduce intersymbol interference and crosstalks in high-speed backplane applications. In the design of the clock and data recovery circuit, embedding DFE within a phase and frequency detector enhances the recovery of data inherently from distorted input signals and facilitates providing DFE with the recovered clock.
