VLSI High-Speed I/O Circuits: Theoretical Basis, Architecture, Modeling and Circuit Implementation

This book is based on the class notes of a VLSI design course the author offered in Electrical Engineering Department at Arizona State University. The materials are organized into twenty-one special topics covering various aspects of analysis, modeling, and implementation of VLSI high-speed I/O circuits, such as prototype timing models, jitter analysis, transmitter, receiver, equalizer, phase-locked loop (PLL), and data recovery circuit designs.

Dr. Hongjiang Song (Temple, AZ) is a lecturer with the School of Electrical, Computer, and Energy Engineering at Arizona State University, where he has taught a series of circuit design courses in VLSI Analog Signal Processing, VLSI High-Speed I/O Circuits, and Structural VLSI Analog Circuits since 2002. Dr. Song earned his PhD from ASU and has been working in the VLSI circuit industry as a senior design engineer with Intel Corporation since 1994.
