Abstract :
This paper describes Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) and jitter behavior in wideband data communication circuits employing series-peaking techniques. Tradeoffs among SNR, jitter, bandwidth enhancement and group-delay variation are shown as functions of capacitance ratios and inductance values for such circuits. It is shown that SNR and jitter can be simultaneously optimized at the expense of bandwidth. The effectiveness of this approach is demonstrated with a 0.13um CMOS transimpedance amplifier design example.
