Abstract :
A Clock/Data recovery (CDR) PLL with a VCO running at half the rate for gigabit serial data communication is described. A Novel feedback biasing circuit technique is used between the VCO and the charge pump to minimize any systematic phase offset error due to process and temperature variations. The receiver gain is boosted at high frequencies to compensate for the loss introduced by the cable. Improved CML logic is used to broadband the signal path. The CDR core consumes 150 mW at 3.3 V in 0.35 μm CMOS, and has a Bit-Error Rate (BER) of 10 -14 for the input jitter of 500 ps
