Abstract :
An eye-opening monitor (EOM) capable of providing qualitative two-dimensional (2D) map of the eye opening of a 10 Gbps signal is designed. The EOM is designed in 0.18 um CMOS process. The 2D map of the eye opening is obtained by scanning the eye opening with a phase-offset clock to obtain the different best-fit mask sizes. In the present design the clock is provided from an external source. The design operates with a 1.8 V supply and consumes 95 mA of current.
