Abstract:
A signaling system is described. The signaling system comprises a transmit device, a receive device including a partial response receive circuit, and a signaling path coupling the transmit device and the receive device. The receive device observes an equalized signal from the signaling path, and includes circuitry to use feedback from the most recent previously resolved symbol to sample a currently incoming symbol. The transmit device equalizes transmit data to transmit the equalized signal, by applying weighting based on one or more data values not associated with the most recent previously resolved symbol value.

Claim (Index 9):
A multi-mode receiver integrated circuit comprising:\n receive circuitry; a mode select circuit responsive to a mode select signal to configure the receive circuitry into one of a multi-level receiver to receive an input data symbol having one of at least four levels or a 2-PAM partial response receiver to receive an input data symbol having one of two levels; wherein the multi-level receiver includes comparison circuitry to compare the input symbol to at least four respective threshold level control values; and wherein the 2-PAM partial response receiver uses at least a portion of the comparison circuitry to compare the input data symbol to respective partial response threshold levels.
