An Antenna-to-Bits F-Band 120-Gbps CMOS RF-64QAM Receiver

An Antenna-to-Bits F-Band 120-Gbps CMOS RF-64QAM Receiver 150 150
Author(s): Youssef O. Hassan, Mohammad Oveisi, Zisong Wang, Payam Heydari

Abstract:

A CMOS 100–140-GHz end-to-end receiver (RX) is presented that integrates the antenna input all the way to the bitstream output, while demodulating 64QAM/16QAM/QPSK entirely in the analog domain. A sequential asynchronous demodulation method enables 120-Gbps operation at a notably small baseband power consumption. Fabricated in a 22-nm FDSOI …

Modern Wireline Transceivers

Modern Wireline Transceivers 150 150
Author(s): Tony Chan Carusone, Timothy O. Dickson, Samuel Palermo, Sudip Shekhar, Mozhgan Mansuri

Abstract:

Over the past two decades, ever-increasing network bandwidth (BW) demands in data centers and high-performance computing systems have fueled exponential growth in per-lane serial link data rates. To keep up with this demand and enable faster communication over BW-limited electrical channels, wireline transceiver architectures and circuit topologies have rapidly evolved …

A 1.54-pJ/b 64-Gb/s 16-QAM Intradyne Coherent Optical Receiver in 28-nm CMOS

A 1.54-pJ/b 64-Gb/s 16-QAM Intradyne Coherent Optical Receiver in 28-nm CMOS 150 150
Author(s): Ahmed E. Abdelrahman, Mohamed Badr Younis, Mohamed Osama Selim, Mohamed Saad Aly, Mahmoud A. Khalil, Pavan Kumar Hanumolu

Abstract:

The rapid growth of data-intensive applications in modern data centers is driving demand for scalable, high-speed, and energy-efficient optical interconnects. Traditional noncoherent modulation schemes, such as pulse amplitude modulation (PAM), are reaching their scalability limits at higher data rates, making coherent detection increasingly attractive due to its higher spectral efficiency. …

A Machine Learning-Inspired PAM-4 Transceiver for Medium-Reach Wireline Links

A Machine Learning-Inspired PAM-4 Transceiver for Medium-Reach Wireline Links 150 150
Author(s): Ramin Javadi, Tejasvi Anand

Abstract:

This article presents an energy-efficient machine learning-inspired PAM-4 wireline transceiver that leverages data encoding at the transmitter (Tx) and feature extraction with classification at the receiver (Rx) to compensate for channel loss ranging from 13 to 26 dB, while maintaining the bit error rate (BER)<10-11. A new consecutive symbol-to-center (CSC) encoding …
