[0075] As described in the background section, in the prior art, the internal signal jitter of the high-speed interface transmitter chip is severe, which leads to a reduction in the serial data opening and thus seriously degrades the system performance.

[0076] The inventors discovered that the reason for the above phenomenon is that, Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 The diagram shows a comparison of the eye opening of the data serialization circuit output signal under different timing matches. As can be seen from the diagram, the optimal clock position should be located in the data center (clock signal timing diagram above). At this position, the data jitter of the data serialization circuit output is minimized. If the edge of the clock signal deviates from the data center (clock signal timing diagram below), additional jitter will be introduced when selecting the output signal. This jitter cannot be canceled by external circuitry. Increased jitter will lead to a decrease in the data eye opening, severely degrading system performance.

[0077] Based on this, the present invention provides a high-speed interface transmitter circuit, comprising:

[0078] At least one set of data serialization circuits, at least one set of equalization drive circuits, a clock generation and matching circuit, and two load resistors;

[0081] Both the positive data serialization circuit and the negative data serialization circuit are connected to the clock generation and matching circuit. The clock generation and matching circuit generates a clock signal, which is transmitted to the positive data serialization circuit and the negative data serialization circuit of the data serialization circuit.

[0082] The clock signal generated by the clock generation and matching circuit is used to perform clock matching with the serialized data in the data serialization circuit.

[0083] The high-speed interface transmitter circuit provided by this invention includes: at least one set of data serialization circuits, at least one set of equalization drive circuits, a clock generation and matching circuit, and two load resistors; the clock generation and matching circuit is connected to the data serialization circuit, and the clock signal generated by the clock generation and matching circuit is used to perform clock matching with the serialized data in the data serialization circuit, so that the clock signal and the serialized data in the data serialization circuit are accurately matched, thereby greatly improving data performance, reducing the jitter of the output of the serialization circuit, thereby increasing the opening and improving system performance.

[0089] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 2 This invention provides a schematic diagram of a high-speed interface transmitter circuit structure. The high-speed interface transmitter circuit includes: at least one set of data serialization circuits 1, at least one set of equalization drive circuits 2, a clock generation and matching circuit 3, and two load resistors R. T Each data serialization circuit 1 includes a positive data serialization circuit 1P and a negative data serialization circuit 1N for forming differential signals; each equalization drive circuit 2 includes a positive equalization drive circuit 2P and a negative equalization drive circuit 2N; the output terminal of the positive data serialization circuit 1P is connected to the input terminal of the positive equalization drive circuit 2P; the output terminal of the negative data serialization circuit 1N is connected to the input terminal of the negative equalization drive circuit 2N.

[0090] The output terminals of the equalization drive circuit 2 are connected to two load resistors R. T One end is connected as the output terminal Dout of the high-speed interface transmitter circuit; two load resistors R TThe other end of each circuit is connected to the power supply Vdd. Both the positive data serialization circuit 1P and the negative data serialization circuit 1N are connected to the clock generation and matching circuit 3. The clock generation and matching circuit 3 generates a clock signal, which is transmitted to the positive data serialization circuit 1P and the negative data serialization circuit 1N of the data serialization circuit 1. Specifically, the clock signal CK generated by the clock generation and matching circuit 3 is used for clock matching with the serialized data in the data serialization circuit 1.

[0091] It should be noted that the specific structure of the clock generation and matching circuit 3 is not limited in the embodiments of the present invention, as long as it can achieve the function of accurately matching with the serialized data, thereby reducing the jitter of the serialized data and increasing the eye opening. Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the specific structure of a high-speed interface transmitter circuit provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The clock generation and matching circuit 3 includes: a first buffer 31, a multi-phase clock signal generator 32, a clock delay unit 33, and a bias signal generator 34.

[0092] The first buffer 31 has an input terminal that receives the clock input signal CLK IN and delays it. Its output terminal is connected to the input terminal of the multiphase clock signal generator 32. The multiphase clock signal generator 32 generates a multiphase clock CK based on a preset phase difference between sampling clocks. Its output terminal is connected to the synchronization circuit 12 in the positive data serialization circuit 1P and the negative data serialization circuit 1N. The output terminal of the multiphase clock signal generator 32 is also connected to a clock delay unit 33. The clock delay unit 33 is connected to a bias signal generator 34 and receives the bias signal V. ctrl Control and input the delayed clock signal to the selector 13 of the positive data serialization circuit 1P and the negative data serialization circuit 1N.

[0093] In this embodiment of the invention, a clock signal CK is generated by a multiphase clock signal generator 32. At this time, the clock signal CK can be synchronized with the data in the synchronization circuit 12 in the serialized data, and then accurately matched with the transmission of serialized data in the selector 13, thereby reducing jitter during data transmission, increasing the opening, and improving system performance.

[0094] Please see Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of a clock delay structure provided in an embodiment of the present invention; the specific structure of the clock delay 33 that achieves precise matching between the clock signal and serialized data in this embodiment includes:

[0095] Second buffer 331, third buffer 332, fourth buffer 333, fifth buffer 334, sixth buffer 335, seventh buffer 336, eighth buffer 337, ninth buffer 338, tenth buffer 339, eleventh buffer 3310 and first variable capacitor C331, second variable capacitor C332, third variable capacitor C333, fourth variable capacitor C334;

[0096] The second buffer 331, the third buffer 332, and the fourth buffer 333 are connected in series; the input terminal of the second buffer 331 receives the first clock input signal CK. in0 The output of the second buffer 331 is connected to one end of the first variable capacitor C331; the output of the third buffer 332 is connected to one end of the second variable capacitor C332; the other ends of the first variable capacitor C331 and the second variable capacitor C332 are both grounded; the output of the fourth buffer 333 outputs the first clock signal CK0.

[0097] The fifth buffer 334 and the sixth buffer 335 are connected in series; the input of the fifth buffer 334 receives the second clock input signal CK. in90 The output of the sixth buffer 335 outputs the second clock signal CK. 90 ;

[0098] The seventh buffer 336, the eighth buffer 337, and the ninth buffer 338 are connected in series; the input of the seventh buffer 336 receives the third clock input signal CK. in180 The output of the seventh buffer 336 is connected to one end of the third variable capacitor C333; the output of the eighth buffer 337 is connected to one end of the fourth variable capacitor C334; the other ends of the third variable capacitor C333 and the fourth variable capacitor C334 are both grounded; the output of the ninth buffer 338 outputs the third clock signal CK. 180 ;

[0099] The tenth buffer 339 and the eleventh buffer 3310 are connected in series; the input of the tenth buffer 339 receives the fourth clock input signal CK. in270 The eleventh buffer 3310 outputs the fourth clock signal CK. 270 .

[0100] In this embodiment, by adding buffers and variable capacitors in the clock path during the delay of different clock signals, the delays of multiple clock signals are made different. By adjusting the size of the buffers and the capacitance of the variable capacitors, the serialized data transmitted in the serialization circuit can be matched, thereby achieving precise matching between clock and data, greatly improving data performance, and significantly reducing the output jitter of the serialization circuit.

[0101] The serialization circuit that matches the clock signal delay process above is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the data serialization circuit includes a random data generator 11, a synchronization circuit 12, and a selector 13 connected in sequence. The random data generator 11 generates parallel data, which is synchronized and sampled by the synchronization circuit 12. Then, the selector 13 samples the parallel data according to a sampling clock to generate multiple serial data sets. The serial data includes master-level serial data. The random data generator 11 and the synchronization circuit 12 can be implemented using existing known structures; this embodiment does not limit their implementation.

[0102] In practical applications, let's take the transmission of a four-level pulse amplitude modulation signal by a transmitter circuit as an example. Figure 3 As shown, the transmitted data is called master-level data DM. main Master-level data DM main After passing through the synchronization circuit, according to the master-level data DM main Generate front-end data DM with a positive or negative time difference from the main-end data. pre and subsequent data DM post When using a traditional integer architecture feedforward equalizer for equalization compensation, the multi-phase clock generation circuit drives and divides the input clock, so that the phase difference between the sampling clocks of the main stage data and the previous and subsequent stage data is 90°, that is, the phase difference between the sampling clocks of the main stage data and the previous and subsequent stage data is ±1UI.

[0103] like Figure 3 As shown, considering the need to generate pre-stage and post-stage data with positive and negative time differences based on the master-level data, three selectors are required. However, in practical applications, data with more time differences at each stage can also be generated, requiring more selectors. This invention does not limit the number of selectors. Four-bit parallel data, after passing through a synchronization circuit, obtains master-level data at a quarter speed, as well as pre-stage and post-stage data with time differences less than ±1 UI from the master-level data. Since it is four-bit parallel data, it needs to pass through a 4:1 selector to generate pre-stage serialized data, master-stage serialized data, and post-stage serialized data. If it is eight-bit parallel data, then an 8:1 selector is used. Similarly, other bit-level parallel data corresponds to corresponding selectors. It can be understood that the synchronization circuit first generates four-bit parallel master-level data, pre-stage data, and post-stage data, and then the selectors serialize the parallel data.

[0104] It should be noted that the high-speed interface transmitter circuit provided in this embodiment is not only suitable for non-return-to-zero code signal transmission, but also for multi-level pulse modulation signal transmission. In this embodiment, the high-speed interface transmitter circuit may include only one set of data serialization circuits and one set of equalization drive circuits. In other embodiments, it may also include two sets of data serialization circuits and two sets of equalization drive circuits. For example, the high 4 bits of parallel data are serialized and transmitted after passing through a synchronization circuit. Similarly, the transmission principle of the low 4 bits of parallel data is the same as that of the high 4 bits, which will be described in detail in subsequent embodiments.

[0105] In this embodiment, the data serialization circuit is optional, such as... Figure 5 The diagram shown is a schematic diagram of the selector structure provided in an embodiment of the present invention; in this embodiment, a 4:1 selector is used as an example for explanation.

[0106] The selector includes twelfth to eighteenth buffers and multiple clock switches.

[0107] The input terminals of the twelfth buffer 131, the thirteenth buffer 132, the fourteenth buffer 133, and the fifteenth buffer 134 are used to receive parallel data input signals. The output terminal of the twelfth buffer 131 is connected to the input terminal of the sixteenth buffer 135 through the first clock switch K1, and the output terminal of the thirteenth buffer 132 is connected to the input terminal of the sixteenth buffer 135 through the third clock switch K3. The output terminal of the fourteenth buffer 133 is connected to the input terminal of the seventeenth buffer 136 through another set of second clock switches K2, and the output terminal of the fifteenth buffer 134 is connected to the input terminal of the seventeenth buffer 136 through the first clock switch K1. The output terminal of the seventeenth buffer 136 is connected to the input terminal of the eighteenth buffer 137 through the fourth clock switch K4. The output terminal of the eighteenth buffer 137 serves as the output terminal Dout of the selector.

[0108] The first clock switch K1 receives the second clock signal CK. 90 Under the control of the second clock switch K2, the fourth clock signal CK is received. 270 Under control, the third clock switch K3 receives the third clock signal CK. 180 The control is achieved by the fourth clock switch K4 receiving the control signal CK0 from the first clock signal.

[0109] The selector provided in this embodiment of the invention, by adding a sixteenth buffer 135 and a seventeenth buffer 136, causes a delay in serial data during data serialization transmission. That is, the selector provided in this embodiment adopts a two-stage serialization structure with a differential clock CK. 270 With CK 90 Perform the first stage of serialization, differential clock CK 180Complete the second-level serialization with CK0.

[0110] In a serialization circuit, the timing relationship between the clock and data ensures the basic function of the circuit. Furthermore, the matching relationship between the second-stage clock and data determines the jitter of the final output data of the serializer. Precise clock-data matching minimizes output data jitter. Figure 1 As shown in the eye opening diagram, it can be seen that the clock generation and matching circuit provided in this embodiment of the invention can increase the eye opening, reduce jitter, and improve the system performance.

[0111] Furthermore, a variable capacitor is introduced as a buffer load in the clock generation and matching circuit to fine-tune the clock CK. 180 The delay with CK0 is used to match the transmission time required for the serialization switch selection process, thereby achieving precise matching between the clock and data, greatly improving data performance, and significantly reducing the output jitter of the serialization circuit.

[0112] It should be noted that in practical applications, besides the data output jitter caused by clock mismatch during data serialization, which can lead to a smaller eye opening, insufficient circuit bandwidth can also cause data jitter. Specifically, traditional transmitter equalization performs equalization calculations in the output driver circuit to optimize the chip's output signal quality and compensate for signal attenuation that may be caused by the chip's external packaging and wiring. However, when the data rate increases significantly, not only does the external signal quality of the chip deteriorate severely, but the internal circuit bandwidth of the chip also seriously restricts signal quality. Figure 3 In the transmitter circuit structure shown, the main-tap data is the actual transmitted data. Due to design requirements, the corresponding driver transistors in the drive circuit are usually selected to be larger in size. Therefore, the output load of the MUX in front of it will be increased, which will cause the rise and fall edges of the signal to slow down during signal transmission, and deteriorate the signal opening and jitter performance.

[0113] Based on this, another embodiment of the present invention also provides a logic feedforward equalization (logic FFE) technique for targeted compensation of main-level data attenuation. The basic principle is to add an adjustable driving branch to the data output terminals of the pre-tap and post-tap, which is directly connected to the data output terminal of the main-tap. According to the principle of de-emphasis feedforward equalization, the data tailing attenuation caused by inter-symbol interference is compensated, thereby improving the quality of the main-level data signal. Data jitter optimization is performed in advance before entering the equalization driving circuit to reduce data-related jitter (DCD). Figure 6 The given data frequency domain characteristics show that using logic feedforward equalization technology can effectively expand the circuit bandwidth, improve the edge characteristics of the rising and falling edges of the data, and enhance the data driving capability.

A logic equalization circuit is also provided within the data serialization circuit. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the high-speed interface transmitter circuit includes two sets of data serialization circuits: the upper set transmits the high 4 bits of data, and the lower set transmits the low 4 bits of data. The structures of both sets of data serialization circuits and the equalization drive circuit are identical.

[0115] The above data serialization circuit will be used as an example for explanation. Figure 3 Unlike the data serialization circuit shown, the data serialization circuit in the high-speed interface transmitter circuit provided in this embodiment also includes a logic equalization circuit 14, which is connected between the selector and the equalization drive circuit.

[0119] To enhance design integrity and improve technical flexibility, the logic equalization circuit provided in this embodiment is a logic equalization circuit with adjustable compensation capability, such as... Figure 8 As shown. By selecting different switches, different multiples of the drive unit can be selected. For example, SW0 and SW1 can be selected for selective conduction. After inputting the control signal, the single-multiplier drive unit and the double-multiplier drive unit are controlled respectively. The compensation intensity is adjusted according to the signal rate attenuation. In other embodiments of the present invention, the drive unit of the logic equalization circuit can be further extended to N bits according to actual application requirements.

[0120] The logic equalization circuit proposed in this invention is a master-level data logic equalization technology.

[0121] In another embodiment of the invention, the purpose of reducing output data jitter can also be achieved by extending the drive bandwidth. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 9 , Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram of a high-speed interface transmitter circuit structure provided in an embodiment of the present invention;

[0122] and Figure 7 The difference is that the equalization drive circuit 21 in the high-speed interface transmitter circuit provided in this embodiment has a non-traditional structure. Each equalization drive circuit includes a positive equalization drive circuit and a negative equalization drive circuit.

[0123] This embodiment uses a positive equalization driving circuit as an example for explanation. The structure of the negative equalization driving circuit is the same as that of the positive equalization driving circuit, and this embodiment does not limit it.

[0126] The pre-amplifier equalization control circuit 211 includes a fifth transistor T5, a sixth transistor T6, a seventh transistor T7, and an eighth transistor T8;

[0127] The main level equalization control circuit 213 includes a ninth transistor (shown in the upper left corner of module 213 in the figure), a tenth transistor (shown in the upper right corner of module 213 in the figure), an eleventh transistor (shown in the lower left corner of module 213 in the figure), and a twelfth transistor (shown in the lower right corner of module 213 in the figure);

[0128] The post-equalization control circuit 212 includes a thirteenth transistor T13, a fourteenth transistor T14, a fifteenth transistor T15, and a sixteenth transistor T16;

[0129] The control terminals of both the fifth transistor T5 and the sixth transistor T6 receive the bias voltage input VB from the preceding stage. pre The first terminal of the fifth transistor T5 is used to connect to the first terminals of the ninth and thirteenth transistors T13, and is also used to connect to a load resistor R. T One end is connected, that is, node ON, which serves as an output terminal of the equalization drive circuit;

[0140] The equalization drive circuit (MSB combiner) provided in this embodiment adopts a current-mode output drive method. When the output load resistor RT is fixed, the bias current of the input transistor pair determines the output signal amplitude. The pre-tap and post-tap data are used for output equalization and are therefore connected in opposite phase to the main-tap data output. The MSB combiner and LSM combiner work together to generate the final modulation pulse, i.e., the transmitted PAM4 data (NRZ data can also be generated depending on the data encoding method). This embodiment differs from previous embodiments in that it introduces a pair of capacitors connected between the gate and drain of the input differential pair transistors. Their function is to provide a fast output signal establishment path, thereby accelerating the output signal establishment process, effectively increasing the overall bandwidth of the drive circuit, improving the circuit's drive load capacity, significantly optimizing the eye opening and jitter performance of the output signal eye diagram, and achieving system optimization. In other words, by accelerating the establishment of the drive circuit output signal through the cross-connected capacitors, the circuit bandwidth performance is effectively improved without increasing additional current overhead, which can effectively optimize the chip output signal quality.

[0141] In another embodiment of the invention, it may also be as follows: Figure 11 As shown, Figure 11 This is a schematic diagram of another high-speed interface transmitter circuit structure provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The high-speed transmitter circuit structure provided in this embodiment includes the clock generation and matching circuit and the equalization drive circuit, which are the same structures provided in the embodiments of the present invention. However, the data serialization circuit has not been improved and includes the structure in the prior art. No additional logic equalization circuit has been added.

[0142] That is, the high-speed interface transmitter circuit provided in this embodiment of the invention enables precise matching between data and clock through clock generation and matching circuit, thereby reducing jitter of output signal; in addition, the cross capacitors are used to accelerate the establishment of output signal of the circuit, effectively improving the circuit bandwidth performance, which can also reduce jitter of output signal, increase the opening, and thus improve system performance.

[0143] In summary, this invention, based on system-level design, proposes a series of internal bandwidth expansion and jitter optimization techniques for transmitter chips, including master-level data logic equalization, serialization timing matching, and drive bandwidth expansion. These techniques address shortcomings in existing transmitter chip circuit designs, optimizing the design from the signal source and significantly improving transmitter data jitter performance, thereby increasing communication speed. The proposed techniques are of significant value for the design of high-speed serial transmitter chips exceeding 100Gbps. They not only increase transmission rates by expanding bandwidth but also optimize internal data transmission jitter through signal matching, effectively improving signal transmission quality. Furthermore, they possess good design compatibility, applicable not only to NRZ and PAM4 data transmission modes but also extending to high-speed analog circuit design, optimizing key internal designs of high-speed mixed-signal chips.
