Abstract

Due to the differential transmission technique and low voltage swing, LVDS has been widely used for high speed transmission with low power consumption. This paper presents the design and implementation of interface circuits for 1.5Gb/s operation in 0.35um CMOS technology. The interface circuit ate fully compatible with the low-voltage differential signaling(LVDS) standard. The LVDS proposed in this paper utilizes a sense amplifiers instead of the conventional differential pre-amplifier, which provides a 1.5Gb/s transmission speed with further reduced driver output voltage. Furthermore, the reduced driver output voltage results in reducing the power consumption.
