Abstract:
An equalizer circuit includes: an addition circuit configured to add an input signal and a compensation signal; a comparison circuit configured to compare an output signal of the addition circuit; a plurality of first latch circuits configured to hold an output signal of the comparison circuit, the plurality of first latch circuits being connected in cascade; a selection circuit configured to select and output one of output signals of the comparison circuit and the plurality of first latch circuits; a second latch circuit configured to hold an output signal of the selection circuit; and a digital analog conversion circuit configured to generate the compensation signal, based on an output signal of the second latch circuit.

Claim (Index 18):
A semiconductor integrated circuit comprising:\n an equalizer circuit according to  claim 3 , the equalizer circuit being configured to sample a serial signal as the input signal using a clock signal, and to determine and output data on the serial signal; a demultiplexer circuit configured to performs serial-to-parallel conversion on an output signal of the equalizer circuit and to output a parallel signal; a clock data recovery circuit configured to control a phase of the clock signal, based on an output signal of the demultiplexer circuit; and an internal circuit configured to receive the parallel signal from the demultiplexer circuit to perform a processing operation.
