In this paper, a 10 bit 1 GS/s current-steering CMOS D/A converter is presented. The measured INL is better than +/-0.2 LSB. The 1 GS/s conversion rate has been obtained by a fully custom designed thermometer decoder. The dynamic limitations have been solved, resulting in more than 61 dB measured SFDR in the interval from DC to Nyquist at all conversion rates up to 1 GS/s. At this conversion rate, the power consumption equals 110 mW. The chip has been processed in a standard 0.35 /spl mu/m CMOS technology and has an active area of only 0.35 mm/sup 2/.

In this paper, a 6-bit CMOS analog-to-digital converter (A/D) with a maximum acquisition speed of 1 GHz is presented. The problem of meta-stability has got special attention in this design, since this problem degrades the Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR) at high sampling frequencies. Measured SNDR (signal to noise plus distortion) is over 30 dB at 500 MHz clock and f/sub IN/=141 kHz. The measured SFDR for input frequencies up to 250 MHz is over 30 dB. The chip has been processed in a standard 0.35 /spl mu/m CMOS technology with double poly and occupies an active area of 0.8 mm/sup 2/.

A complete analysis of noise in CMOS switching mixers using stochastic differential equations (SDE) is presented. The noise figure is calculated using this analysis which takes both cyclostationary noise sources and capacitive high frequency effects into account. The analysis leads to important design implications for mixer design and shows that some commonly-used approximations for mixer noise calculations can be misleading in certain cases even at low frequencies. It is demonstrated that there is an optimum value for the load capacitor leading to minimum noise figure and maximum conversion gain for the mixer.

There is an unprecedented interest among circuit designers today to obtain insight into the mechanisms of phase noise in LC oscillators. For only with this insight is it possible to optimize oscillator circuits using low-quality integrated resonators to comply with the exacting phase noise specifications of modern wireless systems. In this paper we concentrate on an understanding of the popular differential LC oscillator. We introduce simple models to capture the nonlinear processes that convert voltage or current thermal noise in resistors or transistors into phase noise in the oscillator. The analysis does not require hypothetical elements, such as limiters or amplitude control loops, to fully explain phase noise. A simple expression at the end accurately specifies thermally induced phase noise, and lends substance to Leeson's original hypothesis. Next, the upconversion of flicker noise into phase noise is traced to mechanisms first identified in the 1930's, but apparently since forgotten. Unlike thermally induced phase noise, which appears as phase modulation sidebands, flicker noise is shown to upconvert by bias-dependent frequency modulation. The results are validated against SpectreRF simulations and measurements on two differential CMOS oscillators tuned by resonators with very different Q's.

BSIMPD, a physics-based SPICE model, is developed for bridging deep-submicron CMOS designs using partially-depleted SOI technologies. Formulated on top of the industry-standard bulk-MOSFET model BSIM3v3 for a sound base of scalability and robustness, BSIMPD captures SOI-specific dynamic behaviors with its built-in floating-body, self-heating and body-contact models. A parameter-extraction strategy is demonstrated, and the simulation efficiency is studied. The model has been tested extensively within IBM on state-of-the-art high speed SOI technologies. It has been implemented in many circuit simulators.

This paper proposes a new device and circuit scheme that drastically suppresses the stand-by leakage current for the deep sub-0.1 /spl mu/m era while maintaining the circuit speed. Applying boosted gate voltage on the low leakage switches with higher V/sub th/ and thicker T/sub ox/, extremely low stand-by power for battery type application is achieved, while degradation of circuit performance and an increase of area overhead are sufficiently suppressed. The combination with a negative gate voltage scheme and the application of the boosted voltage scheme to SRAMs are also discussed.

A PRML read/write IC operating up to 450 Mbit/s is presented. The chip implements a 16-state EPR4 parity check time variant Viterbi detector and a digital servo. A 24/26 code with parity check improves the robustness to white noise, media noise and to off-track conditions. The device is integrated in a mature 0.35 /spl mu/m BiCMOS technology with a die size of 13 mm/sup 2/ (step and repeat) and dissipates 1.9 W (in read mode) at 450 Mbit/s.

Robust high-voltage tolerant I/O that does not need process options is presented, demonstrated on 5.5 V tolerant open-drain I/O in a 2.5 V 0.25 /spl mu/m CMOS technology. Circuit techniques limit oxide stress and hot-carrier degradation, resulting in hundreds of years extrapolated lifetime for 5.5 V pad voltage swing, 2.2 V supply voltage, 10 MHz switching frequency. The shown concepts are also implemented in other types of I/O and can easily be scaled towards newer processes.
