Abstract

High-speed ADC-based backplane receivers often suffer from high power consumption and complexity and require careful designs. This paper discusses circuit- and system-level design considerations for such receivers. A low-power, high-speed front-end ADC circuit and a high-level design-space exploration of ADC-based receivers are presented.
