Abstract
Front-end circuitry for a data receiver and related systems, methods, and devices are disclosed. The front-end circuitry includes a passive equalizer, which includes a signal input, an equalizer output including a first equalizer output and a second equalizer output, a first signal path, and a second signal path. The first signal path is between the signal input and the first equalizer output. The first signal path has a first frequency response. The second signal path is between the signal input and the second equalizer output. The second signal path has a second frequency response. The second frequency response exhibits substantially inverse behavior to that of the first frequency response. An amplifier circuit is configured to combine a first equalizer output signal from the first equalizer output with a second equalizer output signal from the second equalizer output to obtain an equalized output signal.
