Jitter refers to deviation from ideal timing in clock and data transitions. In wireline communications, jitter reduces the timing margin available for clock and data recovery (CDR) circuits and poses significant challenges to signal integrity as the data rates march towards 64Gb/s/lane and beyond. In this talk, we first review the basic definitions of jitter and its properties, and...

This talk introduces a class of devices and instrumentations that leverage the myriad economic benefits of having integrated systems with both electrical and mechanical functionality on a single-chip. This is enabled by a CMOS post-processing technique developed at the University of Waterloo to create MEMS devices within CMOS chips. We integrate actuation, sensing and control... Read more →
