Abstract :
This paper describes a 5 GHz Analog Phase Interpolator (API) for clock synthesis and clock data recovery dedicated to multi-gigabit/s serial link applications. The system includes a 10 GHz LC Phase Locked Loop for clock generation and an Analog Phase Interpolator implemented with Current Mode Logic (CML) offering better phase noise and speed performances compared to CMOS logic. It has been implemented in ST´s 65 nm RfCMOS technology. The core of the API occupies a silicon area of 0.09 x 0.17 mm2 and dissipates less than 22.56 mW from a 1.2 V voltage supply.
