Abstract
Techniques for adaptive backchannel equalization. A total equalization value is determined over a preselected training period. A total balance equalization value is determined over the preselected training period. A transmitter equalization coefficient is determined based on the total equalization value and the total balance equalization value. Data is transmitted over a serial link using the transmitter equalization coefficient.
Claims25
A method comprising:
- determining a total equalization value over a training period;
- determining a total balance equalization value over the preselected training period;
- determining a transmitter equalization coefficient based on the total equalization value and the total balance equalization value;
- transmitting data over a serial link using the transmitter equalization coefficient.
An apparatus comprising a link control agent to determine a total equalization value over a training period, to determine a total balance equalization value over the preselected training period, to determine a transmitter equalization coefficient based on the total equalization value and the total balance equalization value, and to transmit data over a serial link using the transmitter equalization coefficient.
