Abstract
A device includes feed-forward clock circuitry to provide a receiver (RX) clock to a sampler circuit that samples a data lane of a set of RX data lanes, the feed-forward clock circuitry having a temperature-induced delay. The device also includes an RX phase-locked loop (PLL) coupled between the feed-forward clock circuitry and the sampler circuit. The RX PLL includes a phase interpolator positioned in a feedback path of the RX PLL. The phase interpolator has a negative delay that matches the temperature-induced delay of the feed-forward clock circuitry to cause the sampler circuit to cancel out the common noise shared between the feed-forward clock circuitry and the data lane.
