Résumé

This work describes a NRZ receiver data-path fabricated in 14nm bulk FinFET technology and characterized in an 850nm VCSEL based optical link up to 64Gb/s. It achieves 1.42pJ/bit energy efficiency while recovering PRBS-7 data (BER< 10-12) modulated by a VCSEL driver with 1-tap FFE. The receiver utilizes a self-referenced low-bandwidth TIA combined with a speculative 1-tap DFE to achieve high sensitivity. The measured sensitivity at 64 Gb/s, 56 Gb/s and 32 Gb/s are -5.5dBm, -9dBm and -13dBm OMA respectively.

Fiber-optic communication

Fiber-optic communication is a method of transmitting information from one place to another by sending pulses of infrared or visible light through an optical fiber. The light is a form of carrier wave that is modulated to carry information. Fiber is preferred over electrical cabling when high bandwidth, long distance, or immunity to electromagnetic interference is required. This type of communication can transmit voice, video, and telemetry through local area networks or across long distances.

Multi-mode optical fiber

Multi-mode optical fiber is a type of optical fiber mostly used for communication over short distances, such as within a building or on a campus. Multi-mode links can be used for data rates up to 100 Gbit/s. Multi-mode fiber has a fairly large core diameter that enables multiple light modes to be propagated and limits the maximum length of a transmission link because of modal dispersion. The standard G.651.1 defines the most widely used forms of multi-mode optical fiber.

10 Gigabit Ethernet

10 Gigabit Ethernet est une expression utilisée pour désigner une variété de technologies utilisée pour implémenter le standard IEEE 802.3 (Ethernet) à des débits compris entre 1000 et 10 000 Mbit/s. Ces technologies basées sur des standards de câblage reposent sur des liaisons filaires à fibre optique ou à paire torsadée. Les standards de câblage sont définis dans les normes suivantes : clauses 44 à 54 du groupe de normes IEEE 802.3. IEEE 802.3ae. IEEE 802.3ak. IEEE 802.3an. IEEE 802.3ap. IEEE 802.3aq.
