    Abstract: A conversion circuit includes a replica feedback loop circuit and a CML to CMOS converter. The replica feedback loop circuit of a conversion circuit includes a first inverter, a first-stage amplifier and a second-stage amplifier. An input terminal of the first inverter is shorted to an output terminal of the first inverter. The second-stage amplifier of the replica feedback loop circuit is a replica of a half of a differential amplifier of the CML to CMOS converter. The replica feedback loop circuit is configured to generate a bias voltage that is used to bias the differential amplifier of the CML to CMOS converter, such that a common mode (CM) voltage outputted by the differential amplifier is same as a switching threshold voltage of a second inverter of the CML to CMOS converter.

    Abstract: A clock and data recovery device that includes a first phase detector, a pulse filter, a charge pump, a loop filter and a voltage-controlled oscillator is introduced. The first phase detector generates a first phase state signal according to a data signal and a first output signal. The pulse filter adjusts the first phase state signal according to a capacitance of a loop capacitor to generate a filtered signal. The charge pump generates a pumping signal according to the filtered signal. The loop filter generates a control signal according to the pumping signal. The voltage-controlled oscillator generates a second output signal and adjust a frequency of the second output signal according to the control signal, wherein the first output signal is generated according to the second output signal.
