Simulated-annealing-based adaptive equaliser for on-die variation compensation

Abstract:

Fully exploiting the flexibility of lookup-table-based equalisers, it is proposed to compensate for on-die variation effects within a transmit-side equaliser. To efficiently deal with the nonlinear nature of circuit non-idealities, the proposed equaliser utilises simulated annealing for adaptation.
