Abstract
A device includes a voltage generator that generates a reference signal, a multi-level bias generator coupled to the voltage generator to receive the reference signal and generate a plurality of bias level signals based at least in part on the reference signal. The multi-level bias generator transmits the plurality of bias level signals to a plurality of multiplexers that each receive a select signal to select a subset of bias level signals of the plurality of bias level signals. The device also includes an adjustment circuit of a decision feedback equalizer that receives a respective selected subset of bias level signals from one multiplexer of the plurality of multiplexers and utilizes the respective selected subset of bias level signals to compensate for inter-symbol interference of a bit due to a previously received bit of a bit stream.
