This paper presents a 5-Gb/s low-power burst-mode clock and data recovery circuit based on analog phase interpolator for passive optical network applications. The proposed clock recovery unit consists of two double-edge triggered sample-and-holds (DT-SHs) and a phase interpolator. The PI instantaneously locks the recovered clock to incoming burst-mode data by coefficients generated at the DT-SHs' outputs. To reduce power dissipation in clock recovery unit, instead of two buffers, only one is utilized for the DT-SH. The proposed PI-based BM-CDR has been designed and simulated in 0.18-mu m standard CMOS technology. The Results show that reduction in power dissipation of 40% for the clock recovery unit has been achieved. The proposed BM-CDR circuit retimes data at 5Gb/s for a 2(10)-1 pseudo-random binary sequence within the first UI. The recovered data shows jitter at 14ps (pp). The circuit, including 1: 2 data demux, draws 29mW power from a 1.8-V supply.
