Power consumption management in protocol-based redrivers

A redriver chip includes a controller and a plurality of circuits coupled to the channel. The controller adjusts a set of parameters of the plurality of circuits to have first values during a first mode of operation and second values during a second mode of operation. The first values generate a fir...

Zusammenfassung:A redriver chip includes a controller and a plurality of circuits coupled to the channel. The controller adjusts a set of parameters of the plurality of circuits to have first values during a first mode of operation and second values during a second mode of operation. The first values generate a first level of power consumption during the first mode of operation, and the second values generate a second level of power consumption during the second mode of operation. The first level of power consumption is lower than the second level of power consumption, and the first mode of operation corresponding to a low-power mode of the redriver chip.
