Abstract
The present invention is directed to electrical circuits. More specifically, embodiments of the presentation provide a CTLE module that includes a two compensation sections. A high-frequency zero RC section is in the source of the differential pair and close to the bias current source. A low-frequency zero section is coupled to an output terminal and configured outside the input signal path. A DC gain tuning section is coupled to the low-frequency zero section. There are other embodiments as well.
