The transmitter occupies 430 × 240 μm2 and consumes 50.56 mW power. With the programmable 5-order pre-emphasis equalizer, the transmitter can compensate for a wide range of channel loss and send a signal with adjustable voltage swing. The receiver equalizer occupies 146 × 186μm^2 and consumes 5.3 mW power.展开更多
