Abstract
A multi-lane re-timer circuit includes: a clock generation circuit to generate a base clock; and reception circuits to generate a reception clock and receive input data signals from lanes, wherein each of the reception circuits includes: a phase frequency detector to generate phase difference signal and frequency difference signal between the input data signal and the reception clock; a clock data regeneration controller to generate a control signal based on the phase difference signal; a phase rotator to generate the reception clock from the base clock; and a decision circuit to receive the input data signal, and wherein the clock generation circuit includes: an input selector to select a signal; a charge pump to generate a charge signal; a loop filter to remove a high frequency component from the charge signal to output a voltage control signal; and a voltage controlled oscillator to generate the reception clock.
