Hi all,
I was designing a 20G tranceiver in CMOS. The data rate is not high as I expected. The input buffer and output driver looks to work for more than 10G data but when I add a bunch of inverters the speed reduces to around 4 G. the maximum data rate which can be attained seems to be limited by the inverter chain. are there any suggestions on what I can add instead of an inverter chain to still recover high speed data.(I tried dcvsl circuit also)
Thanks
