초록

This paper presents a four-level pulse amplitude modulation (PAM-4) receiver employing a time-based finite impulse response (FIR) and infinite impulse response (IIR) decision feedback equalizer (DFE). A linearity-enhanced inverter-chain delay line is proposed to improve the linearity of the time-domain IIR DFE. The PAM-4 signal decoding and DFE operations are implemented entirely in the digital domain, consuming only 2.39 mW in a 65-nm CMOS process and achieving an energy efficiency of 0.12 pJ/bit at a 20-Gb/s data rate.
