Title
A 64gb/S 2.29pj/B Pam-4 Vcsel Transmitter With 3-Tap Asymmetric Ffe In 65nm Cmos
Abstract
This paper presents a 64Gb/s, 2.29pJ/b PAM-4 optical transmitter (TX) utilizing a VCSEL. To improve the power efficiency, the TX adopts a quarter-rate architecture consisting of a quadrature clock generator and a 4:1 MUX. By employing an asymmetric push-pull FFE, high-speed PAM-4 signaling based on a VCSEL can be achieved. It is fabricated in a 65nm CMOS technology, occupying an active area of 0.278mm(2).
