This paper presents a low start-up latency Transmitter (TX) that can achieve FSK data rates of upto 51.4 Mb/s for deployment in duty cycled microsensor nodes. Utilizing a Phase Domain Digital Synthesizer with an FBAR frequency reference, this TX has a start-up latency of just 1.5 µs. It has been integrated in a 65nm technology and outputs upto 3 dBm power. It achieves a phase noise of −110 dBc/Hz...
Energy wasted during the wake-up of radios significantly degrades the efficiency of duty-cycled Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). The major contributor to this energy wastage is the PLL-based frequency synthesizer which has a long wakeup time. Furthermore, the rate of duty cycling in these radios is also constrained by the PLL which imposes an upper limit on the maximum data rate that can be achieved...
The energy dissipated by conventional phase-locked-loop-based transmitters (TXs) during the long startup phase is a major bottleneck that reduces the energy autonomy of duty-cycled ultra-low-power systems. In order to tackle this problem, this paper presents a loop-free TX based on a film-bulk acoustic wave resonator (FBAR) that has a 5-s startup time and requires just 3-s for channel switching...
