Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of integrated circuit design, and specifically discloses a high-speed clock and data recovery circuit that supports dual-mode input. Background Technology
[0002] While the continuous evolution of CMOS technology has significantly reduced feature size, Rent's Law states that as transistor integration density surges, the demand for I / O pins must increase accordingly to meet the growing needs of communication bandwidth and multimedia content. In particular, the expansion of global internet users has led to a doubling of total I / O bandwidth every two years, while chips operating at high frequencies require more power / ground pins to suppress switching noise. Limited by packaging costs and pin counts, I / O growth lags far behind transistor integration speed, forcing individual I / O interfaces to handle higher bandwidths, posing challenges to chip, board, and system interconnects. Therefore, parallel interfaces, due to their high cost, significant interference, and substantial power consumption, have gradually been replaced by serial interface technology based on SerDes. SerDes, with its advantages of low pin count, small area, and high speed, has become an indispensable standard interface for high-performance CPUs, DSPs, and communication chips.
[0003] Due to channel loss and power consumption limitations, transmitters in SerDes circuits mostly only transmit data and not the clock. High-speed clock and data recovery (CDR) circuits are therefore indispensable parts of SerDes, and the performance of the CDR directly affects the overall performance of the SerDes system. Current designs use Bang-Bang phase detectors to achieve high gain, but this leads to significant jitter in the oscillator control voltage, causing substantial spurious noise in the recovered clock and degrading noise performance. Furthermore, the poor phase noise of the loop oscillator itself may further worsen the loop bandwidth. Therefore, current CDR circuits used in high-speed SerDes are limited by trade-offs between input data type and rate, jitter tolerance, RMS jitter of the recovered clock, and power efficiency, making it difficult to achieve a high-performance high-speed CDR circuit. Designing a high-speed CDR circuit and method that balances these key performance indicators is a pressing technical problem that needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0035] refer to Figure 1 The high-speed clock and data recovery circuit supporting dual-mode input described in this invention includes: a linear phase detector, a voltage / current converter, a loop filter, an LC voltage-controlled oscillator (VOC), an injection-locked multiphase clock generation circuit, a data recovery circuit, and a logic decision circuit.
[0036] The linear phase detector has the following configuration: its first input terminal is connected to high-speed input data; its second input terminal is connected to the output terminal of the injection-locked multiphase clock generation circuit; its output terminal is connected to the first input terminal of the voltage / current converter; its second input terminal is connected to the output terminal of the logic decision circuit; its output terminal is connected to the input terminal of the loop filter; its output terminal is connected to the input terminal of the LC voltage-controlled oscillator; its output terminal is connected to the input terminal of the injection-locked multiphase clock generation circuit; its output terminal is connected to the second input terminal of the data recovery circuit and the first input terminal of the logic decision circuit; its first input terminal is connected to high-speed input data; and its output terminal is connected to the second input terminal of the logic decision circuit.
[0037] In one embodiment of the present invention, the loop filter includes: a resistor R L Capacitor C L1 Capacitor C L2 ; wherein, the resistor R LThe input terminal is connected to the output terminal of the voltage / current converter and the capacitor C. L2 The input terminal is connected; the capacitor C L1 The input terminal is connected to the resistor R. L The output terminal of the capacitor C is connected to the capacitor C. L1 The output terminal of the capacitor C is connected to ground level; L2 The output terminal of the capacitor C is connected to ground level; L2 The input terminal is connected to the input terminal of the LC voltage-controlled oscillator.
[0038] The linear phase detector of this invention can directly perform linear phase detection on input high-speed NRZ (non-return-to-zero code) and PAM4 (four-level pulse amplitude modulation signal), and has a large phase detection gain. The closed-loop transfer function of the Type-II loop structure used in this invention is calculated by the following formula:
[0039]
[0040] in, K PD It is the gain of the linear phase detector. I CP It is the current of the charge pump. K VCO It is the gain of the LC voltage-controlled oscillator. R L It is the resistor in the loop filter. C L1 It is the first-order filter capacitor in the loop filter. C L2 It is a second-order filter capacitor in a loop filter.
[0041] Furthermore, the loop bandwidth is calculated using the following formula:
[0042]
[0043] It should be noted that increasing the gain of the linear phase detector can not only increase the closed-loop bandwidth, but also reduce the in-band noise of the charge pump and the LC voltage-controlled oscillator.
[0044] refer to Figure 2In one embodiment of the present invention, the injection-locked multiphase clock generation circuit includes: a voltage-controlled delay line, a voltage-controlled ring oscillator, a phase-frequency detector (PFD), a resistor R, a capacitor C1, a charge pump CP, and a capacitor C2. The input to the voltage-controlled delay line is a complementary clock generated by a low-frequency LC voltage-controlled oscillator in the loop, and the output is a clock with 16 identical frequencies. Because the injection intensity generated by the multiphase clock injection technology is very high, the requirement for phase accuracy is relatively low. The multiphase injection technology can simultaneously generate high-precision and low-noise multiphase clocks. The phase-frequency detector (PFD) performs phase detection on the quadrature injected clocks, and the output high-frequency phase detection result is filtered to a low frequency before being fed into the charge pump to achieve phase-frequency alignment.
[0045] It should be noted that the bandwidth of the injection-locked multiphase clock generation circuit is very large, and the noise of the generated multiphase clock is mainly the noise of the input reference clock. It is very easy to realize a low-noise low-frequency LC voltage-controlled oscillator. At the same time, since a linear phase detector is used, the output clock has low spurious emissions and can generate strong injection-lock strength, thus realizing a high-precision, low-noise multiphase clock.
