A 22-gb

We report a receiver for four-level pulse-amplitude modulated (PAM-4) encoded data signals, which was measured to receive data at 22 Gb/s with a bit error rate (BER) <10-12 at a maximum frequency deviation of 350 ppm and a 27-1 PRBS pattern. We propose a bit-sliced architecture for the data path,...
