Improving Linearity in CMOS Phase Interpolators

Amit Kumar Mishra;Yifei Li;Pawan Agarwal;Sudip Shekhar

IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits
Year: 2023 | Volume: 58, Issue: 6 | Journal Article |
We compare the prior art in phase interpolators (PIs), classifying them as current-mode, voltage-mode, and integrating-mode PI. Next, we present an integrating-mode PI where the voltage slopes with high phase linearity are generated through the integration of phase-shifted weighted current sources. The constant and variable voltage slopes are generated by current sources/sinks created using stacke...Show More
