摘要/Abstract:
This paper describes an inductorless phase-locked loop (PLL) for 12.8Gb/s (full rate) and 40Gb/s (quad-rate) serial link applications. An integer-N PLL with a very wide bandwidth is implemented in 65nm CMOS, working as a second part of a cascaded PLL system. A gain-boosted two-stage ring oscillator is designed to meet the speed and generate quadrature outputs. The measured tuning range of the proposed ring VCO is 2.2-to-17.2GHz. The PLL consumes 10.3mW from a 1.2V supply at 13.6GHz output. The measured phase noise is -101dBc/Hz at 10MHz offset.
