Abstract
In this paper, a low-power Injection-Locked Clock and Data Recovery (ILCDR) using 28nm FDSOI technology is presented. The back-gate auto-biasing of UTBB-FDSOI transistors allows us to create a QRO (Quadrature Ring Oscillator) reducing both size and power consumption. By injecting a digital signal into this circuit, we realize an Injection-Locked Oscillator (ILO) with low jitter. Thanks to the good performance of this oscillator, we propose a low power ILCDR with fast locking time and low jitter for burst-mode applications. The main novelty consists in the implementation of a complementary QRO based on back-gate control using FDSOI technology to realize a simple and efficient ILCDR circuit. With a Pseudo-Random Binary Sequence (PRBS7) at 868Mbps, the recovered clock jitter is 26.7ps (2.3%UIp-p) and the recovered data jitter is 11.9ps (1%UIp-p). With a 0.6V power supply, the power consumption is 318μW. The estimated Chip area is around 6600μm².
