For example, a component can be, but is not limited to, a process running on a processor, a processor, an object, an executable, a thread in execution, a program, and/or a computer. As an example, both an application running on a computing device and the computing device may be components.

These components can be implemented by, for example, having one or more data groupings (eg, data from one component interacting with another component in a local system, a distributed system, and/or in a signaling manner such as the Internet network to interact with other systems) to communicate locally and/or as remote processes.
首先对本申请可能涉及的串行/解串行的一些概念进行描述:First, some concepts of serialization/deserialization that may be involved in this application are described:
串行/解串行技术是一种用于芯片间通信的高速接口技术,发送端将并行数据转换成串行数据发送,接收端将接收的串行数据转换成并行数据。串行数据从发送端到达接收端所经过的路径称为信道(channel),该路径可以通过芯片封装、印刷电路板(printed circuit board,PCB)走线、过孔、电缆、连接器等元件或结构实现。Serial/deserialization technology is a high-speed interface technology used for inter-chip communication. The transmitting end converts parallel data into serial data for transmission, and the receiving end converts the received serial data into parallel data. The path that serial data takes from the sender to the receiver is called a channel, and this path can pass through components such as chip packages, printed circuit board (PCB) traces, vias, cables, connectors, etc. Structural realization.
串行/解串行没有单独的时钟线,时钟信号嵌入在串行数据的跳变沿中。当接收端接收串行数据时,接收端的时钟数据恢复(clock data recovery,CDR)电路会捕获串行数据的跳变沿的频率,从而恢复时钟信号。如果数据长时间没有跳变,CDR电路就无法得到精确的训练,CDR的采样时刻就会漂移,可能采到比真实数据更多的“0”或“1”。因此发送端在发送串行数据时可以通过8b/10b编码或扰码来避免串行数据中出现过长的连续“0”或“1”,使得跳变沿能快速出现。Serial/deserialization does not have a separate clock line, the clock signal is embedded in the transition edges of the serial data. When the receiver receives serial data, the clock data recovery (CDR) circuit at the receiver captures the frequency of the transition edge of the serial data, thereby recovering the clock signal. If the data does not jump for a long time, the CDR circuit cannot be accurately trained, and the sampling time of the CDR will drift, and more "0" or "1" may be collected than the real data. Therefore, when sending serial data, the sending end can use 8b/10b encoding or scrambling code to avoid excessively long continuous "0" or "1" in the serial data, so that the transition edge can appear quickly.
接收端恢复嵌入在串行数据流的跳变沿中的时钟信号要经过较长时间,为了加速恢复时钟信号的过程,发送端在发送有效数据前可以根据协议先发送特定格式的训练序列,使得接收端的CDR电路根据该训练序列可以快速恢复时钟信号,在后续接收到串行数据时,CDR电路可以通过锁定串行数据的跳变沿来持续输出时钟信号。It takes a long time for the receiver to recover the clock signal embedded in the transition edge of the serial data stream. In order to speed up the process of recovering the clock signal, the sender can send a training sequence in a specific format according to the protocol before sending valid data, so that the The CDR circuit at the receiving end can quickly recover the clock signal according to the training sequence. When serial data is subsequently received, the CDR circuit can continuously output the clock signal by locking the transition edge of the serial data.
接收端在恢复了时钟信号后,将恢复出来的时钟信号与串行数据的跳变沿进行对齐,然后在跳变沿中间对串行数据进行采样,实现对串行数据的模数转换得到数字形式的串行数据,再对数字形式的串行数据进行串并转换即可得到数字形式的并行数据。After the receiving end recovers the clock signal, it aligns the recovered clock signal with the transition edge of the serial data, and then samples the serial data in the middle of the transition edge to realize the analog-to-digital conversion of the serial data to obtain the digital signal. The serial data in digital form can be obtained by serial-to-parallel conversion of the serial data in digital form.
如前文所述的,多通道(lanes)的串行/解串行电路在通过单通道传输切换至多通道传输过程中,接收端先要从多个通道传输的数据中恢复各个通道的时钟信号以完成各个通道的建链。所以首先结合图1-图3来说明多通道的串行/解串行电路的时钟恢复原理。As mentioned above, in the process of switching from single-channel transmission to multi-channel transmission in a multi-lane serialization/deserialization circuit, the receiver must first recover the clock signal of each channel from the data transmitted by the multiple channels to Complete the chain building of each channel. Therefore, the clock recovery principle of the multi-channel serialization/deserialization circuit is first described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3 .
图1示出了一种串行/解串行电路,第一芯片11和第二芯片12之间通过物理层的N个通道传输数据,芯片的每个通道包括发送端(transmitter,TX)和接收端(RX,receiver),对于一个通道来说,一个芯片的发送端与另一个芯片的接收端相连。各个 通道的数据传输是独立的,并且一个通道的接收和发送也是独立的,N个通道就意味着N倍的传输带宽。FIG. 1 shows a serialization/deserialization circuit. Data is transmitted between the first chip 11 and the second chip 12 through N channels of the physical layer. Each channel of the chip includes a transmitter (TX) and a transmitter (TX). Receiver (RX, receiver), for a channel, the transmitter of one chip is connected to the receiver of another chip. The data transmission of each channel is independent, and the reception and transmission of one channel are also independent. N channels means N times the transmission bandwidth.
如图2和图3所示,一个通道的接收端RX包括模拟前端(analog front end,AFE)均衡器21、比较器(Slicer)22、解串器(demultiplexer,DMUX)23和时钟数据恢复(clock data recovery,CDR)电路24。As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the receiver RX of one channel includes an analog front end (AFE) equalizer 21, a comparator (Slicer) 22, a deserializer (demultiplexer, DMUX) 23 and a clock data recovery ( clock data recovery, CDR) circuit 24.
其中,AFE均衡器21用于对输入的模拟形式的串行数据的高低频能量进行均衡,对有效信号进行放大,从而改善信噪比(signal noise ratio,SNR)。The AFE equalizer 21 is used to equalize the high and low frequency energy of the input serial data in analog form, and amplify the effective signal, thereby improving the signal noise ratio (SNR).
比较器22用于根据CDR电路24输出的时钟信号对均衡后的模拟形式的串行数据按照电平分段进行采样,从而对模拟形式的串行数据进行模数转换得到数字形式的串行数据。The comparator 22 is used for sampling the serial data in the analog form after equalization according to the level segment according to the clock signal output by the CDR circuit 24, so as to perform analog-to-digital conversion on the serial data in the analog form to obtain the serial data in the digital form. .
DMUX 23用于对数字形式的串行数据进行串并转换,从而将数字形式的串行数据转换为数字形式的并行数据。The DMUX 23 is used to perform serial-to-parallel conversion on serial data in digital form, thereby converting serial data in digital form into parallel data in digital form.
由于串行/解串行通信没有随路时钟,在初始建链过程中,CDR电路24通过跟踪和锁定串行数据的相位偏差来从串行数据中恢复出时钟信号,该时钟信号作为比较器22对模拟形式的串行数据进行采样的采样时钟。另外如果两个芯片之间的时钟源存在频率偏差,CDR电路24还用于跟踪和锁定串行数据的频率偏差,所以建链过程中的锁定时间较长。Since the serial/deserial communication does not have an accompanying clock, in the initial chain establishment process, the CDR circuit 24 recovers the clock signal from the serial data by tracking and locking the phase deviation of the serial data, and the clock signal acts as a comparator 22 Sampling clock for sampling serial data in analog form. In addition, if there is a frequency deviation between the clock sources between the two chips, the CDR circuit 24 is also used to track and lock the frequency deviation of the serial data, so the locking time in the chain establishment process is long.
CDR电路24可以有多种实现方式:The CDR circuit 24 can be implemented in various ways:
如图2所示,在一种可能的实施方式中,CDR电路24包括鉴相器(phase detector,PD)241、数字低通滤波器(digital low pass filter,DLPF)242和时钟产生器(CKG)243。As shown in FIG. 2, in a possible implementation manner, the CDR circuit 24 includes a phase detector (PD) 241, a digital low pass filter (DLPF) 242, and a clock generator (CKG). ) 243.
其中,PD 241用于通过检测串行数据的跳变沿来检测串行数据的相位,该相位可以指示时钟信号的调整方向,例如向前、向后。DLPF 242用于通过积分(滤波)将串行数据的跳变变慢以防止反馈环路抖动,通过调整DLPF 242的参数可以实现快速锁定本通道的串行数据的相位。CKG 243用于根据时钟信号的相位的调整方向调整时钟信号的相位,各个通道的CKG 243产生的时钟信号是独立的。Among them, the PD 241 is used to detect the phase of the serial data by detecting the transition edge of the serial data, and the phase can indicate the adjustment direction of the clock signal, such as forward and backward. The DLPF 242 is used to slow down the transition of the serial data by integrating (filtering) to prevent the feedback loop from jittering. By adjusting the parameters of the DLPF 242, the phase of the serial data of this channel can be quickly locked. The CKG 243 is used to adjust the phase of the clock signal according to the adjustment direction of the phase of the clock signal, and the clock signals generated by the CKG 243 of each channel are independent.
如图3所示,在另一种可能的实施方式中,CDR电路24包括鉴相器(phase detector,PD)241、数字低通滤波器(digital low pass filter,DLPF)242和相位插值器(phase interpolator,PI)244。As shown in FIG. 3 , in another possible implementation, the CDR circuit 24 includes a phase detector (PD) 241, a digital low pass filter (DLPF) 242 and a phase interpolator ( phase interpolator, PI) 244.
其中,PD 241和DLPF 242的功能见前面描述。PI 244用于根据时钟信号的调整方向调整时钟信号的相位,各个通道的PI 244基于同一个全局(global)锁相环(phase locked loop,PLL)产生时钟信号,相对于图2中各个通道采用独立的CKG 243可以降低多通道传输的功耗。Among them, the functions of PD 241 and DLPF 242 are described above. The PI 244 is used to adjust the phase of the clock signal according to the adjustment direction of the clock signal. The PI 244 of each channel generates the clock signal based on the same global (global) phase locked loop (PLL). The independent CKG 243 can reduce the power consumption of multi-channel transmission.
该串行/解串行电路可以根据传输带宽的不同来改变传输数据的通道数目。例如,在默认的低传输带宽的场景下,两个芯片之间可以采用单通道来通信;当需要突发的高传输带宽时,两个芯片之间可以切换到多通道来通信。总通道数目可以根据最高传输带宽来确定,例如通常可以采用四通道。The serialization/deserialization circuit can change the number of channels for transmitting data according to different transmission bandwidths. For example, in the default low transmission bandwidth scenario, a single channel can be used for communication between the two chips; when a burst of high transmission bandwidth is required, the two chips can switch to multi-channel for communication. The total number of channels can be determined according to the highest transmission bandwidth, for example, four channels are usually used.
由于高传输带宽的需求是突发的并且通常持续时间较短,所以从单通道切换至多通道的过程中,接收端先要从多通道传输的串行数据中恢复各个通道的时钟信号,以 完成各个通道的建链,因此恢复各个通道的时钟信号的耗时(或者说,恢复时钟信号最慢的通道)将影响整个系统在高传输带宽下的工作效率。Since the demand for high transmission bandwidth is bursty and usually has a short duration, in the process of switching from a single channel to a multi-channel, the receiver must first recover the clock signal of each channel from the serial data transmitted by the multi-channel to complete the process of switching from single channel to multi-channel. The chain establishment of each channel, so the time-consuming recovery of the clock signal of each channel (or, in other words, the channel with the slowest clock signal recovery) will affect the working efficiency of the entire system under high transmission bandwidth.
另外,电子设备(例如手机)对功耗很敏感,多通道传输的功耗也会相应增加,如何降低多通道传输时的功耗也至关重要。In addition, electronic devices (such as mobile phones) are very sensitive to power consumption, and the power consumption of multi-channel transmission will also increase accordingly. How to reduce the power consumption during multi-channel transmission is also very important.
因此,本申请实施例提供了一种串行/解串行电路和芯片,通过多个接收通道共用一个接收通道的CDR输出的时钟信号来实现快速恢复各个接收通道的时钟信号,并且可以降低多通道传输的功耗。Therefore, the embodiments of the present application provide a serialization/deserialization circuit and chip, which can quickly recover the clock signal of each receiving channel by using the clock signal output by the CDR of one receiving channel shared by multiple receiving channels, and can reduce the multiple The power consumption of channel transmission.

第一接收通道41和第二接收通道42的数据传输速率相同,第一接收通道41作为参考接收通道,具有完整的CDR电路,由于对端TX和传输信道产生的相位偏差和频率偏差已经由第一接收通道41的CDR电路完成追踪和锁定,所以第二接收通道42作为从属接收通道,不必具有CDR电路,而是复用第一接收通道41的CDR电路输出的第一时钟信号,来对接收的第二串行数据进行采样。The data transmission rates of the first receiving channel 41 and the second receiving channel 42 are the same. The first receiving channel 41 is used as a reference receiving channel and has a complete CDR circuit. Due to the phase deviation and frequency deviation generated by the opposite end TX and the transmission channel, the The CDR circuit of the first receiving channel 41 completes the tracking and locking, so the second receiving channel 42, as a slave receiving channel, does not need to have a CDR circuit, but multiplexes the first clock signal output by the CDR circuit of the first receiving channel 41 to receive of the second serial data to be sampled.
需要说明的是,第二接收通道42不限于一个,可以有多个,即可以多个第二接收通道使用第一接收通道中的CDR电路输出的时钟信号。It should be noted that, the second receiving channel 42 is not limited to one, and there may be more than one, that is, the clock signal output by the CDR circuit in the first receiving channel may be used for multiple second receiving channels.

The comparator 4212 outputs the first clock signal with the clock offset removed. Since the physical distance and wiring between the pins of the communication between the two chips are similar, the transmission channels of different channels between the two chips are similar, so that the clock deviation between the two receiving channels is very small, so the clock deviation is eliminated. The circuit 422 is optional, and the use of the clock offset elimination circuit 422 can enable the second serial-to-parallel conversion circuit 421 to obtain a more accurate first clock signal.
