    Abstract: A receiver circuit includes a clock lane propagating a clock signal. A self-sampled clock applies a delayed version of the clock signal to the clock signal and compensation logic controls an amount of delay of the delayed version of the clock, based on a reference voltage offset (difference) between the receiver and a transmitter. The delayed version of the clock is centered on one unit interval of the clock. An offset correction based on a clock duty cycle error is applied to data receiver front ends.

    Abstract: A circuit includes a first ring oscillator with a plurality of stages, each coupled via a voltage follower cross-coupling to a plurality of stages of a second ring oscillator. Further ring oscillators may be coupled to the first ring oscillator and the second ring oscillator. Additionally, the voltage follower cross-coupling for each of the stages may include one or more first voltage follower having a first strength, and one or more second voltage follower having a second strength different than the first strength.

The delayed version of the clock is centered on one unit interval of the clock. An offset correction is computed as a global offset value based on a clock duty cycle error, combined with a local offset value for each data lane, and is applied to data receiver front ends.
