Pushed by the ever-increasing demand of internet traffic, high-speed serial interfaces are expected to reach 400-Gb/s aggregate data rates in near future. At receiver (RX) side, phase rotators (PRs) are key blocks to align the phase of the local clock to the transitions of the incoming data and to sample the eye in the optimal position. Small phase step and high linearity are paramount in preserving...
A fully integrated 0.18μm CMOS ΣΔ fractional synthesizer targeting 3G wireless terminals applications is presented. This work is a practical example of a more general study on frequency fractional synthesis. A simple linear model of the system is presented and used to simulate different ΣΔ modulators topologies and to evaluate the effects of circuits non-idealities particularly on output spurious...
A new topology of transformer based low noise amplifier is presented. The structure realizes a low noise input match and a current gain greater than one by a current to current positive feedback closed around a common gate stage. The amplifier is inserted in a high linearity current mode RF front-end receiver working between 4.15-4.4GHz with a NF of 4.2dB, a gain of 24.2dB and an IIP3 of -2dBm
This paper describes a radio frequency (RF) front end transmitter for wireless LAN (WLAN), designed for the most common standards, integrated in digital CMOS 0.18mum technology. It covers 802.11a/b/g specifications, concurrently working in the 2.5GHz and 5-6GHz frequency ranges. An innovative solution for the design of the LC tank allows to use a single-spiral inductor in dual resonant tank, with...
