Abstract :
A 47 Ã 10 Gb/s chip-to-chip interface consuming 660 mW is demonstrated in 45 nm CMOS. A dense interconnect topology allows clocking to be shared across multiple lanes to reduce power. Receiver power is reduced by 93% during standby and an integrated wake-up timer indicates that all lanes return reliably to active mode in < 5 ns. The active circuitry occupies 3.2 mm2.
