Description

Forecast decision feedback equalizer
Technical field
The present invention relates to integrated circuit fields, relate more specifically to a kind of forecast decision feedback equalizer.
Background technology
In mobile communications, the finiteness of multipath effect and channel width and the imperfection of the characteristic of channel, cause inevitably producing intersymbol interference during transfer of data, become the principal element affecting communication quality; And the balancing technique of channel can eliminate intersymbol interference and noise, and reduce the error rate.Wherein DFF (DFE) is that a kind of very effective and widely used being used for is eliminated or reduced the measure of multi-path jamming.
Fig. 1 is the structural representation of forecast decision feedback equalizer of the prior art.As shown in Figure 1, existing forecast decision feedback equalizer comprises selector S, a d type flip flop D1 and two adjustable threshold sampler, two adjustable threshold samplers are respectively positive threshold value sampler D2 and negative threshold value sampler D3, the analog signal ADATA of outside input inputs to positive threshold value sampler D2 and negative threshold value sampler D3 respectively, and positive threshold value sampler D2, the clock control end of negative threshold value sampler D3 and d type flip flop D1 is connected with external clock respectively, external clock output clock pulse clk to positive threshold value sampler D2, the clock control end of negative threshold value sampler D3 and d type flip flop D1, and the frequency of clock pulse clk is identical with the analog signal ADATA that outside inputs, thus when the rising edge of clock pulse clk arrives, positive threshold value sampler D2 and negative threshold value sampler D3 samples to external analog signal ADATA, and signal DATA0 and the ADTA1 exported respectively after sampling, positive threshold value sampler D1 is connected with two inputs of selector S respectively with the output of negative threshold value sampler D2, the output of selector S is connected with the input of d type flip flop D3, thus signal DATA0 and the ADTA1 of selector S to input selects and output signal DATA, signal DATA is by the analog signal Dout of stable output after d type flip flop D3, separately, the output of d type flip flop D3 is connected with the control end of selector S, thus the signal Dout that previous judgement obtains is in order to the selection of controlled selector S to next signal.
From the forecast decision feedback equalizer shown in above-mentioned Fig. 1, sampled to inputting analog signal ADATA with positive threshold value sampler D2 and negative threshold value sampler D3 before obtaining previous judgement, positive threshold value sampler D2 the input analog signal level of sampler be greater than certain on the occasion of output just judgement be 1, negative threshold value sampler D3 the input analog signal level of sampler be less than certain negative value export just adjudicate be 0; And the threshold value of positive threshold value sampler D2 and negative threshold value sampler D3 is adjustable, thus make positive threshold value sampler D2 or negative threshold value sampler D3 can complete sampling to inputting analog signal ADATA.According to the previous judgement recovered (i.e. the signal of d type flip flop D3 output), selector S will select correct court verdict in DATA0 and ADTA1, abandons the result of another one mistake, and outputs signal DATA; And pass through the analog signal Dout of d type flip flop D3 stable output, and the analog signal Dout exported controls again the selection of next analog signal by selector S.
Fig. 2 is the sequential chart of the feedback loop of forecast decision feedback equalizer first shown in Fig. 1.Owing to being precomputed by forecast decision feedback equalizer for previous analog signal, therefore selector S only needs correct result to be selected by previous analog signal.As seen from Figure 2, owing to needing to utilize the signal Dout recovered to select, different analog signal DATA0, DATA1 that two threshold value samplers export is adjudicated; Because the frequency of clock pulse clk is identical with the analog signal ADATA that outside inputs, therefore, Dout must be stabilized to its end value before next rising edge clock arrives, and namely the total delay of first feedback path must meet formula (1), correct equilibrium result could be chosen.
T mux+T cq<1UI(1)
Wherein:
T mux---the delay of MUX;
T cq---the transmission delay of d type flip flop.
But when carrying out high speed data transfer in the communications, (1) formula is difficult to set up; When the frequency of the analog signal ADATA such as inputted is 10G, UI=100ps, under the current the fastest prevailing technology that can reach, selector postpones about Tmux=75ps, d type flip flop data setup time about Tcq=90ps.75ps+90ps>100ps, therefore said structure selects correct equilibrium result by being difficult to.
Therefore, be necessary to provide a kind of forecast decision feedback equalizer of improvement to overcome above-mentioned defect.
