Abstract :
A FIR filter for pre-emphasis has been used to counteract inter-symbol interference (ISI) in high-speed backplane data transmission. A novel circuit design for retiming data using a half-rate clock for the taps of a FIR filter is proposed. HSPICE simulation results for CMOS 0.18 mum technology verify that the jitter of PRBS15 (215 - 1) data at rate of 6.25 Gbps with a pre-emphasis value of 50% can be reduced to approximately 14 psec and thereby alleviating the requirement on clock frequency
