The invention discloses a receiving end
equalization circuit applied to a
SerDes communication
system, and belongs to the field of integrated circuits and communication. The circuit comprises a CTLE
equalizer and a
variable gain amplifier VGA which are cascaded, wherein the output end of the CTLE
equalizer is connected with the input end of the VGA; wherein the CTLE
equalizer adopts a source follower, an active
inductor and a negative
capacitor structure, so that the
power consumption is effectively reduced, the output common-mode level is matched, and the bandwidth is expanded; and the VGA adopts a
transconductance enhancement structure and a source follower, so that the
transconductance is improved, the
output impedance is reduced, the
linearity is enhanced, and the flexible control of low-frequency
gain is realized. Compared with a traditional
equalization circuit, on the premise that the structure is simpler and easy to implement, lower
power consumption and smaller area are achieved, meanwhile, the
system transmission rate is remarkably increased, the better
equalization effect and good stability are shown, and an efficient and reliable solution is provided for solving the
signal equalization problem of a
SerDes high-speed serial link.
