Abstract :
Measurements have been done on a 0.8-µm CMOS sub-sampling circuit where a 16-Gbit/s data stream was successfully sampled. The input bit-rate was limited by the test setup. SPICE simulations on extracted layout with included bondwire inductances show correct sampling of 25-Gbit/s data streams. The circuit uses aggressively designed sampling switches and input pads. The package for the circuit is co-designed with the chip to attain high input-bandwidth.
