Ultra wideband wireless serial data communication at 10Gb/s in CMOS 90nm

This paper presents a novel transmitter structure serving as a bridge between high-speed serial data and low power ultra wideband (UWB) communication. A current mode logic (CML) based finite impulse response (FIR) structure is used to spectrally shape the data at the rate of 10 Gb/s with 5.36 pJ energy/bit consumption in CMOS 90 nm technology. Stacked inductors are used for wireless chip-to-chip transmission.
