Methods and systems are described for receiving an input data voltage signal at a first data decision circuit of set of pipelined data decision circuits, receiving an aggregate decision feedback equalization (DFE) correction current signal from a first analog current summation bus, the aggregate DFE correction current signal comprising a plurality of DFE tap-weighted currents from respective other data decision circuits of the set of pipelined data decision circuits, determining a data output decision value based on the received input data voltage signal and the received aggregate DFE correction current signal, and generating at least one outbound DFE tap-weighted current on at least one other analog current summation bus connected to at least one other data decision circuit of the set of pipelined data decision circuits.
