The metal parasitic capacitor is used in the PLL loop filter. Test results show that when the PLL is locked on 1. 989GHz, the RMS jitter is 3. 7977ps, the peak-to-peak jitter is 31. 225ps, and the power con- sumption is about 9mW. The locked output frequency range is from 125MHz to 2.7GHz.展开更多

The CSA is designed with poly-resistors as feedback components to reduce noise. Compared with conventional CSA, the input referred equivalent noise charge（ENC） is simulated to be reduced from 5036e to 2381e with a large detector capacitance of 150pF at the cost of 0.5V output swing loss. The CR-（RC）,semi-Gaussian shaper uses MOS transistors in the triode region in series with poly-resistors to compensate process variation without much linearity reduction.展开更多

The read state power consumption is optimized using a new sense amplifier structure and an optimized control circuit. Block programming/erasing is achieved using an improved control circuit. An on silicon program/erase/read access time measurement design is given. For a power supply voltage of 1.8V,an average power consumption of 68 and 0.6μA for the program/erase and read operations,respectively,can be achieved at 640kHz.展开更多
