Patent attributes
Embodiments include systems and methods for baseline wander correction gain adaptation in receiver circuits. Some embodiments operate in context of an alternating current coupled transceiver communicating data signals over a high-speed transmission channel, such that the receiver system includes an AC-coupled data input and a feedback loop with a data slicer and an error slicer. A baseline wander correction (BWC) circuit can be part of the feedback loop and can generate a feedback signal corresponding to low-pass-filtered bits data from the data slicer output and having a gain generated according to pattern-filtered error data from the error slicer output. For example, gain adaptation is performed according to error information corresponding to a detected relatively high-frequency data pattern following a long low-frequency pattern.
