processing setup/hold times are important factor and its effects
cannot be ignored. When data signals in the inputs of

different and it can cause setup/hold violations. In general
setup/hold time is the minimum amount of time the data signal
should be held steady before/after the clock event so that the
data are reliably sampled by the clock. One of the main factors

Taking into consideration that USB3.0 protocol works with
the 5 Gb/s data rate signal, which means that Data have 400ps

considered as corrected, when tsu/thd is less near 100ps. In
Serializer DIV2 DFF USB3.0 specification book tsu/thd min value defined as 20ps.
The next important parameter is Settling time (ST), which
shows the time when CC is locked. Table 1 shows results for 3

V. CONCLUSIONS
A circuit designed for Serializer final serializing stage
output data and clock setup/hold signal correction. The closed
loop system with negative feedback integrates clock signals
and provides stable signals. Average Deviation for TT corner
is equal to 0.085%, after 42ns of settling time, the tsu/thd has
the value of 98ps, where the minimum spec of setup/hold time
margins from the USB3.0 specification book is 20ps.
The approached method can be implemented for
input/output protocols such as USB, PCI and etc.
