A trifilar-coupling quadrature voltage-controlled oscillator (QVCO) is demonstrated using 0.35-mum SiGe heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) technology. The trifilar transformer consisting of one primary coil and two secondary coils is used in this work to separate the collector and base bias for output voltage swing optimization and also to replace a conventional transistor-coupling method for quadrature output generation, simultaneously. As a result, the trifilar-coupling QVCO achieves the 191.6-dBc/Hz FOM at the supply voltage of 1.2 V The on-chip passive single side-band (SSB) upconversion mixer is also demonstrated to fairly measure the quadrature accuracy of the QVCO. Consequently, the side-band rejection ratio of 37.7 dB is achieved.
采用0.35 μ m SiGe异质结双极晶体管(HBT)技术，设计了一种三线耦合正交压控振荡器(QVCO)。在这项工作中，使用由一个初级线圈和两个次级线圈组成的三线变压器来分离集电极和基极偏置，以优化输出电压摆幅，同时也取代了传统的晶体管耦合方法来产生正交输出。结果表明，三线耦合QVCO在1.2 V电源电压下实现了191.6 dbc /Hz的FOM，片上无源单边带(SSB)上变频混频器也能很好地测量QVCO的正交精度。因此，获得了37.7 dB的边带抑制比。

This paper presents a 1.25 Gbps optical links design for mobile handsets. The system consists of an optical connector and a SER/DES main chip. The former contains an 850 nm VCSEL (vertical cavity surface emission laser), a GaAs-PIN photodiode and a transimpedance amplifier (TIA). The later includes a serializer, a deserializer, a VCSEL driver, a limiting amplifier, a PLL and a CDR. The chip and TIA were fabricated in a 0.13 um CMOS process with MIM capacitors. A digital type CDR with fine timing controls allows sharing a VCO between transmitter and receiver, resulting in reduced both power consumption and silicon area. The system fully demonstrated a 1.25 Gbps data and video stream transmission, consuming 108.4 mW of power under 1.2 V/3.3 V supply voltages.

This paper discusses a low-power inductive-coupling link in 90 nm CMOS. The novel transmitter circuit using charge recycling technique for power-aware three-dimensional (3D) system integration is proposed and investigated. Cross-type daisy chain enables charge recycling and achieves power reduction while keeping communication performance such as high timing margin, low bit error rate and high bandwidth. There are two design issues in cross-type daisy, one is pulse amplitude reduction and another is inter-channel skew. To compensate them, inductor design and replica circuit is proposed and investigated. Test chips were designed and fabricated in 90 nm CMOS to verify the proposed transmitter. Measured result showed that proposed cross-type daisy chain transmitter achieved an energy efficiency of 65 fJ/bit without degrading any of timing margin, data rate and bit error rate.

This paper describes a high-speed low-power CMOS subranging analog-to-digital converter (ADC). A reference voltage precharging architecture and the introduction of a comparator with built-in threshold voltage in the fine ADC are proposed to reduce the settling time of the reference voltage. A T/H circuit with body-bias control circuit is employed to reduce the distortion at high sampling rate. The test chip fabricated using 90-nm CMOS technology shows a high-sampling rate of 770 MS/s and a low-power consumption of 70 mW.

This paper highlights design considerations for low-power, high-performance mobile memory and logic interfaces, based on the results from the 14 mW, 6.25 Gb/s transceiver test chip demonstrated in 90 nm CMOS. One of the keys to achieving 2.25 mW/Gbps was the highly-sensitive, low-offset receiver. An accurate receiver enables low-swing signaling and requires less power and area from the transmitter. The smaller transceiver design in turn lowers the clock distribution power and improves the signal quality by presenting less loading to the clock and the channel, respectively. The improved signal quality enables even lower signal swing and a ldquospiral of goodnessrdquo continues. This paper examines these aspects in detail and discusses their potential implications to a broad spectrum of future low-power, high-performance mobile interface designs.

This work presents the experimental results, from chip measurements, of ripple carry adder circuits using a new CMOS logic family-feedthrough logic (FTL). A 14-bit low power FTL adder performs faster, (2.6 times smaller propagation time delay, and 1.85 times higher maximum frequency), and provides a better energy efficiency (67.9% saving), when compared with the dynamic domino CMOS logic style. The 18-bit high speed FTL, working at its maximum frequency, outperforms the dynamic domino logic in terms of the propagation delay (19.5 times less), maximum frequency (12.1 times more), and energy efficiency per bit (96.7% better).
