A recovered jitter of CDR(Clock and Data Recovery) Circuit based on Dual-loop DLL(Delay Locked Loop) for data recovery in high speed serial data communication is changed by depending on the input data and reference clock frequency. In this paper, 2-step DPC which has constant jitter performance for wide-range input frequency is proposed. The designed prototype 2-step CDR using proposed 2-step DPC has operation frequency between 200Mbps and 4Gbps. Average delay step of 2-step DPC is 10ps. Designed CDR circuit was tested with 0.18um CMOS process.

In the playback signal processing of a digital magnetic recording system, the major signal processing processes consist of pulse equalization. pulse detection, clock recovery, and data recovery. Equalizer which compensates interference occurrde between pulses recorded in high density on a magnetic media is realized by pulse slimming method, and pulse detection by a integrating detector. Clock recovery from the detector output was accomplished by using PLL. and data recovery to reduce noise effects was carried out by utilizing the three sampling clocks recovered in clock recovery process. In this paper these processes are implemented in hardware and its performance is evaluated by experimenting with a commercial DAT. It was found that the playback signal processor proposed is suitable to the practical high density magnetic recording system.

최근 Analog Sampled-Data 신호처리를 위하여 주목되고 있는 SI(Switched-Current) circuit은 저전력 동작을 하는 장점이 있지만, 반면에 SI circuit에서의 기본 회로인 Current Memory는 Charge Injection에 의한 Clock Feedthrough이라는 치명적인 단점을 갖고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 Current Memory의 문제점인 Clock Feedthrough의 일반적인 해결방안으로 Dummy Switch의 연결을 검토하였고, Austria Mikro Systeme(AMS)에서 $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS process BSIM3 Model로 제작하기 위하여 Current Memory의 Switch MOS와 Dummy Switch MOS의 적절한 Width을 정의하여야 하므로, 그 값을 도출하였다. Simulation 결과, Switch의 Width는 $2{\mu}m$, Dummy Switch의 Width는 $2.35{\mu}m$로 정의될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

This paper presents the design of a performance-driven interconnect allocation algorithm. The algorithm is based on the idea that the clock period can be minimized by balancing the load for each of the communication paths following specific hardware modules. By performing load balancing for only the communication lines on ciritical paths, the proposed algorithm generates interconnection structures with minimum delays. This approach also shows run time efficiency. Experimental results confirm the effectiveness of the algorithm by constructing the interconnection structures such that the clock period can be minimized for several benchmark circuits available from the literature.

In this paper, an analog-domain powr-reduction technique for a low-voltage CMOS operational amplifier and its application to clock-based VLSI systems are proposed. The proposed technique cuts off the bias current of the op amp during a half cycle of the clock in the sleeping mode and resumes the curent supply sequentially during the remaining cycle of the clock in the normal operating mode. The proposed sequential sbiasing technique reduces about 50% of the op amp power and improves the circuit performance through high phase margin and stable settling behavior of the output voltage. The power-reduction technique is applied to a sample-and-hold amplifier which is one of the critical circuit blocks used in the front-end stage of analog and/or digital integrated systems. The SHA was simulated and analyzed in a 0.8.mu.m n-well double-poly double-metal CMOS technology.

In order to generate a clock source with low cost and high performance in system on chip(SoC), a relaxation oscillator with stable output characteristics according to PVT(process, voltage and temperature) fluctuation require a low area and a low power. In this paper, we propose a solution to reduce the current loss caused by parasitic components in the conventional relaxation oscillator. Since the slew rate of the bias current and the capacitor are adjusted to be the same through the proposed solution, a relaxation oscillator with low area characteristics is designed for the same clock source frequency implementation. The proposed circuit is designed using the TSMC CMOS 0.18um process. The Simulation results show that the relaxation oscillator using the proposed solution can prevent the current loss of about $279{\mu}A$ and reduce the total chip area by 20.8% compared with the conventional oscillator in the clock source frequency of 96 MHz.

We proposed a optimal clock period selection algorithm for low power Register Transfer Level design. The proposed algorithm use the way of maintaining the throughput by reducing supply voltage after improve the system performance in order to minimize the power consumption.

In this paper, the digital frequency synthesizer with the clock ccunting method is designed and implemented to increase the performace of the digital frequency synthesizer with pahse accumulating method which was developed before. Unlike an phase accumulating method, clock countind method is supplied a continually changeable clock frequency with PLL(Phase Locked Loop) and allocated a fixed phase step with N-ary counter. Form the experimenta results, it is confirmed that any periodic distorition phenomena are disappeared, and truncation harmonics are more reduced. But the output bandwidths are decreased in inverse proportion to the counter counting number and the circuits are somewhat complex than phase accumulating method.

We report an experimental demonstration of 40 Gbps all-optical 3R regeneration with all-optical clock recovery based on InP semiconductor devices. We also obtain alloptical non-return-to-zero to return-to-zero (NRZ-to-RZ) format conversion using the recovered clock signal at 10 Gbps and 40 Gbps. It leads to a good performance using a Mach-Zehnder interferometric wavelength converter and a self-pulsating laser diode (LD). The self-pulsating LD serves a recovered clock, which has an rms timing jitter as low as sub-picosecond. In the case of 3R regeneration of RZ data, we achieve a 1.0 dB power penalty at $10^{-9}$ BER after demultiplexing 40 Gbps to 10 Gbps with an eletroabsorption modulator. The regenerated 3R data shows stable error-free operation with no BER floor for all channels. The combination of these functional devices provides all-optical 3R regeneration with NRZ-to-RZ conversion.
