Abstract

This work presents the design and experimental results of a current mode Scalable Low-Voltage Signaling (SLVS) transceiver in 130 nm CMOS technology. The proposed transmitter includes a feedback control which reduces the commonmode voltage variations in terms of the VDS voltage of the bias transistor, and an enable/disable operation mode, which minimizes the power consumption when data transmission is not requested. A rail-to-rail comparator topology was used to design the receiver circuit being robust to transient commonmode variations with low power consumption and high speed. The experimental DC power consumption of the transceiver is 4.6 mW at 1.25V power supply, where 1.1 mW is consumed by the receiver and 3.5 mW by the transmitter. The eye diagram proves the proper dynamic operation of the circuit until a data rate of 1.2Gbps. (AU)
