A signal receiving circuit is provided. The signal receiving circuit includes a receiving circuit, an adjustment circuit and a boundary detection circuit. The receiving circuit is configured to receive an input signal. The adjustment circuit is configured to adjust the input signal. The boundary detection circuit is configured to detect a first signal having a first data pattern in the input signal and a second signal having a second data pattern in the input signal. The boundary detection circuit is further configured to detect a gap value between a first signal boundary of the first signal and a second signal boundary of the second signal to reflect a status of the adjustment circuit.

Signal receiving circuit, memory storage device and method for evaluating status of adjustment circuit for adjusting input signal

A calibration method of an equalizer circuit for a memory storage device is disclosed. The calibration method includes: receiving a first signal; adjusting, by the equalizer circuit, the first signal according to a control parameter to output a second signal; generating a first sampling signal according to a first reference signal and the second signal, wherein the first sampling signal reflects data transmitted by the first signal; and generating a second sampling signal according to a second reference signal and the second signal and adjusting the control parameter according to the second sampling signal to calibrate the equalizer circuit, wherein a voltage value of the first reference signal is different from a voltage value of the second reference signal.
