The two are superimposed on the output OUTP / OUTN to achieve the effect of changing the current size. Its framework diagram is shown in Figure 2 , the linear analog equalizer includes transistors Q1 to Q2, resistors R1 to R3, capacitor C1, PMOS transistors P1 to P2, current source I1, and NMOS transistors M9 to M12; the bases of transistors Q1 and Q2 are respectively connected to the differential signals INN and INP, the emitters are respectively connected to both ends of resistor R3 and both ends of capacitor C1, and the collectors are respectively connected to the power supply VDD through resistors R1 and R2; the emitters of transistors Q1 and Q2 are simultaneously grounded through current source I1; the drain terminals of PMOS transistors P1 and P2 are respectively connected to the collectors of transistors Q1 and Q2; the gate terminals of PMOS transistors P1 and P2 are both connected to the n9 signal; the source terminal of PMOS transistor P1 is simultaneously connected to the drain terminals of NMOS transistor M9 and NMOS transistor M12, and the source terminal of PMOS transistor P2 is simultaneously connected to the drain terminals of NMOS transistor M10 and NMOS transistor M11; the gate terminal of NMOS transistor M9 is connected to the b1 signal, the gate terminal of NMOS transistor M10 is connected to the b3 signal, the gate terminal of NMOS transistor M11 is connected to the b4 signal, the gate terminal of NMOS transistor M12 is connected to the b2 signal, and the source terminals of NMOS transistors M9 to M12 are all grounded.

[0044] The specific working process of the linear analog equalizer is as follows:
[0045] INP and INN are input differential signals. The signals pass through the analog differential operational amplifiers of the analog linear equalizer CTLE for transistors Q1 and Q2, and the equalization gain is adjusted through resistor R3 and programmable capacitor C1. The signals are sent to the output terminals OUTP / OUTN. At this time, if a voltage offset occurs in the system, the offset signal is transmitted to terminals a1, a2, a3, a4, and a5 through the digital SAR offset compensation algorithm. Among them, a5 is a judgment signal for determining whether to adjust the left matrix or the right matrix. If a5 is '1', the left bias matrix starts to work. If a5 is '0', the right bias matrix works. a1, a2, a3, and a4 in the adjustment signals are adjustment signals with precision. When the left side starts to work, if a1 is '0', then n2 is '1' and n1 is '0', so NMOS transistor M1 is turned off and NMOS transistor M2 is turned on, resulting in b1 being at a low level, NMOS transistor M9 is turned off, and there is no current change in PMOS transistor P1, and there is no adjustment change in the system. If a1 is '1', then n2 is '0' and n1 is '1', so NMOS transistor M2 is turned off and NMOS transistor M1 is turned on. The bias current source composed of NMOS transistors M13, M15, and M14 provides current to b1 through NMOS transistor M1. NMOS transistor M9 causes a current change in PMOS transistor P1, and the system starts to make adjustments. Finally, the adjusted current is added to the OUT / OUTP output and output to the subsequent module. Other signals such as a2, a3, a4, etc. are similar.
[0046] The differential amplification module includes a programmable gain amplification circuit, a limiting amplification module A, and a limiting amplification module B, and its structure is shown in Figure 3 . The programmable gain amplification circuit includes transistors Q3 to Q6, resistor R3, resistor R4, and current source I2; the bases of transistors Q3 and Q4 are connected to the balanced signal, the collectors are both connected to power supply VDD, and the emitters are respectively connected to the collectors of transistors Q5 and Q6; the bases of transistors Q5 and Q6 are interconnected, and the emitters are grounded through resistor R3 and resistor R4 respectively; the positive pole of current source I2 is simultaneously connected to the bases of transistors Q5 and Q6, and the negative pole is grounded.

[0048] The limiting amplification module B and the limiting amplification module A are mirror modules with the same structure.
[0049] The specific working process of the differential amplification module is as follows:
[0050] The balanced signal is the differential pair INN / INP, which is amplified by the programmable gain amplification circuit (i.e., VGA). This VGA circuit includes a pair of transistors Q3 and Q4. This structure can conduct a large current, and the large current can accelerate the signal amplification rate. This circuit uses a current source I2 connected to the bases of transistors Q5 and Q6, so that the current source I2 can control the conduction effect of transistors Q5 and Q6, thereby generating a large current to control the current magnitude of the differential pair of transistors Q3 and Q4, so as to achieve the purpose of gain improvement. The amplified signal is subjected to limiting amplification of the VGA output signal by module A and module B to make the signal close to the ideal binary signal, and at the same time, two reference signals OUTA and OUTB for subsequent comparison are output. Module A and module B are mirror modules with the same structure, and both contain several limiting amplifiers, such asFigure 3 A similar structure composed of NMOS transistors M16, M17, M18, M19, M20, M21, etc. Among them, there can be many differential pair structures composed of NMOS transistors M16 and M17 cascaded after the differential pair composed of NMOS transistors M16 and M17, not limited to the number shown in the figure. The swing of the output signal of these limiting amplifiers is positively correlated with the magnitude of the tail current. The symmetrical structure composed of NMOS transistors M20 and M21 generates the tail current for it. The current source I5 of this structure can be adjusted, and different tail currents can be generated by adjusting the current source I5.
[0051] The internal structure of the voltage offset judgment and detection module is a second-order comparator, and its structure is shown in Figure 4 , the voltage offset judgment and detection module includes PMOS transistors P3 to P6, NMOS transistors M22 to M25; the source terminals of PMOS transistors P3 to P6 are all connected to the power supply VDD.

The gate terminal of PMOS transistor P6 is connected to the gate terminal and drain terminal of PMOS transistor P5 at the same time. The drain terminal of PMOS transistor P6 is connected to the drain terminal of NMOS transistor M24. The drain terminal of PMOS transistor P5 is connected to the drain terminal of NMOS transistor M22. The source terminal of NMOS transistor M22 is connected to the positive pole of current source I6, and the gate terminal is connected to the reference signal.
[0052] The specific working process of the voltage offset judgment and detection module is as follows:
[0053] Two reference signals OUTA (i.e., INA) and OUTB (i.e., INB) are used as the inputs of the voltage offset judgment and detection module. This module includes a second-order differential comparison circuit, which is composed of three pairs of current mirrors composed of a pair of differential input pairs of NMOS transistors M22 and M23, four PMOS transistors P6, P3, P4, P5, and two NMOS transistors M24 and M25. After the signal passes through this circuit, it is output single-ended (VOUT), and compared with a single-order comparator, it has higher accuracy.
[0054] The voltage offset calibration module adopts the SAR voltage offset calibration algorithm, and its structure is as shown in Figure 5 shown, and the working process is as follows:
[0055] The entire output offset voltage VOUT is subdivided according to precision. For example, the precision in this embodiment is 5 bits. To improve precision, it can also be further divided into 6 bits, 7 bits, etc. Then the entire voltage can be subdivided into a 16-bit 4-bit + 1-bit adjustment signal, and then the output value of VOUT is sampled. Since 5-bit precision is used for sampling in this embodiment, that is, sampling is carried out with five clock cycles as an adjustment stage, and this stage is a cyclic process. The highest bit, bit5, corresponds to the a5 input terminal in the equalizer, and the other bits correspond to the a1, a2, a3, and a4 input terminals in the equalizer.
[0056] First, the algorithm matrix is given an initial value of '10000'. The selection range of the initial value is the intermediate value between the values of '11000' and '01000'. This is reflected in the current matrix of the analog equalizer as all being turned off. The equalizer enters the initial stage without any current adjustment. At the same time, the highest bit being '1' represents that the offset occurs on the left side of the differential section of the equalizer, and '0' represents that the offset occurs on the right side of the differential section of the equalizer, that is, a3 in the equalizer module.
[0057] In the first cycle, the VOUT output being '0' means that the offset value is greater than '10000'. At the same time, the highest bit '1' represents that the offset is on the right side of the equalizer. Immediately, the initial value is adjusted and the matrix '11000' is given. At this time, it is reflected in the equalizer that the output voltage on the right side is offset, and the current value on the right side of the equalizer is adjusted.
[0058] In the second cycle, the VOUT output being '1' means that the offset value is less than '11000'. '11000' is in the middle of the range between '11100' and '10100'. Immediately, the initial value is adjusted and the matrix '10100' is given. At this time, it is reflected in the equalizer that the output voltage on the right side is offset, and the current value on the right side of the equalizer is adjusted.
[0059] And so on until all five steps are completed, and then a fixed adjustment value is output to completely eliminate the voltage offset.
[0060] The above description is only a description of the preferred embodiments of the present invention and does not limit the scope of the present invention in any way. Any changes and modifications made by those of ordinary skill in the art of the present invention based on the above disclosure fall within the protection scope of the claims.
