Abstract :
This paper presents an analysis of sub-2.5-V topologies and design methodologies for SiGe BiCMOS and sub-90nm CMOS building blocks to be used in the next generation of 40-100 Gb/s wireline transceivers. Examples of optimal designs for 40-80Gb/s broadband low-noise input comparators, low-voltage high-speed MOS- and BiCMOS CML logic gates, 30-100 GHz low-noise oscillators, and 40/80 GHz output drivers with wave shape control are provided.
