  • Abstract
    An optimum design of decision feedback equalizer (DFE) used in Ethernet is presented. This paper proposes two improving measures for physical implementation - the hybrid form and the coefficient updating unit sharing. According to the results of synthesis using SMIC, 0.18μm CMOS process, the speed, area and power consumption of the improved DFE is optimized by 16%, 36% and 39% compared with the transposed form implementation.
