A 36-way time-interleaved 56-GS/s 7-bit ADC is designed to realize 112-Gb/s pulse-amplitude modulation (PAM-4) transceiver in a 7-nm FinFET CMOS. The receiver analog front-end stages and the ADC track-and-hold (T/H) buffers are implemented using inverter-based Gm/inverse-Gm-load cells. A distributed inductor peaking network and multi-phase clock calibration is implemented in the quarter-rate transmitter. The transceiver achieves <1E-8 pseudorandom binary sequence (PRBS)-31 PAM-4 bit error rate (BER) over a channel with 37.5-dB loss at 28 GHz while dissipating 602 mW per channel, excluding DSP.
