Abstract :
A current-mode output driver that supports SERDES applications is implemented using 0.13 mum Bulk and PD SOI CMOS technologies. Schematic simulation results confirm the enhanced performance of PD SOI for very high-speed interfaces. The PD SOI current-mode driver shows a 3 times lower data dependent jitter than the bulk current-mode driver at the same 3.125 Gbps data rate of XAUI standard.
