A decision feedback equalizer for generating an output signal according to an input signal includes: a feedforward equalizer, a feedback equalizer and a weight coefficient control unit. The feedforward equalizer includes a plurality of tapped delay lines and is controlled by a set of first weight coefficients. The feedback equalizer includes a plurality of tapped delay line and is controlled by a set of second weight coefficients. The weight coefficient control unit is employed to selectively adjust at least one of the set of first weight coefficients and determine a set of first boundary values for at least one of the set of second weight coefficients. When the at least one of the set of second weight coefficients does not exceed the set of first boundary values, the weight coefficient control unit increments the at least one of the set of first weight coefficients.
