Abstract
A computerized system simulates a non-linear Decision Feedback Equalizer. The computerized system includes a user interface, an output port, and a controller coupled to the user interface and to the output port. The controller is configured to (i) receive electronic design automation commands from a user through the user interface, (ii) generate, as an electronic model of the non-linear Decision Feedback Equalizer, an electronic representation of a linear filter in response to the electronic design automation commands, and (iii) integrate the electronic representation of the linear filter into an electronic circuit design having other electronic representations of other electronic circuits. The electronic circuit design is externally accessible through the output port.
