Abstract:

Low-jitter clock generation is a critical component for enabling robust high-speed operation of 5Gb/s backplane transceivers. The implementation of a 500MHz clock synthesizer that operates either as a multiplying phase-locked loop (MPLL) or a multiplying delay-locked loop (MDLL) is described. The choice depends on the noise characteristics of the input clock source. This MP/DLL design is implemented in a 0.25/spl mu/m CMOS process and operates with a 2.5V supply.
