Abstract:In order to alleviate the problem of excessive noise and excessive power consumption introduced by longdistance transmission of highfrequency clock signals in multichannel SerDes, a lowpower lowjitter twostage phaselocked loop applied to multichannel serial interface is designed, Simultaneously, this design is used to transmit the lowfrequency clock signal (3.125 GHz) generated by the firststage LC oscillator phaselocked loop to each channel transceiver, this signal is taken as the secondlevel reference signal, and then a smallarea ring oscillator phaselocked loop is used to produce an orthogonal highfrequency clock (12.5 GHz). This structure reduces the distance that the highfrequency clock transmits over long distances on the chip, and improves the clock quality of the transceiver. In addition, this technology avoids the use of highfrequency buffers and reduces power consumption. In order to further reduce the noise performance, a sampling phase detector is designed in the secondstage phaselocked loop. This technology improves the noise performance of the secondstage ringvibration phaselocked loop by means of nofrequency phase discrimination. The overall power consumption of the clock generator circuit is 100 mW, the phase noise of the firststage phaselocked loop is -125 dBc/Hz, and the phase noise of the secondstage ring oscillator circuit is -79 dBc/Hz at 1MHz. The overall jitter of the clock signal generated by the circuit is 2.7 ps. The quadrature clock skew is within 300 fs.
