Abstract
Described embodiments provide for, in a SerDes device, an adaptation process that adjusts termination impedance automatically to obtain a tuned termination. The termination adaptation is realized with a ‘biased’ bang-bang phase detector (BBPD) that biases the weights applied to UP and DOWN outputs of the phase detector. Through an optimization process, the system locks to data eye corners, and thereby is able to optimize termination though a predetermined criteria, such as signal to noise ratio (SNR), horizontal eye (H-) margin, vertical eye (V-) margin or joint SNR and H-/V-margin optimization. As part of the receiver equalization, adaptive termination tuning is performed after the SerDes receiver (RX) path is initially powered-up by tuning the termination above and below its current initial setting and performing the optimization process.
