A low-power, multichannel gated oscillator-based CDR for short-haul applications

A gated current-controlled oscillator (GCCO) based topology is used to implement a low-power multi-channel clock and data recovery (CDR) system in a 0.18um digital CMOS technology. A systematic approach is presented to design a reliable and lowpower system based on the required specifications. Behavioral simulations are also used to estimate the achievable bit error rate (BER), jitter tolerance (JTOL), and frequency offset tolerance
