This book was released on 2008-07-08 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern RF receivers and transmitters require quadrature oscillators with accurate quadrature and low phase-noise. Existing literature is dedicated mainly to single oscillators, and is strongly biased towards LC oscillators. This book is devoted to quadrature oscillatorsand presents adetailed comparative study ofLC and RCosc- lators, both at architectural and at circuit levels. It is shown that in cross-coupled RC oscillators both the quadrature error and phase-noise are reduced, whereas in LC - cillators the coupling decreases the quadrature error, but increases the phase-noise. Thus, quadrature RC oscillators can be a practical alternative to LC oscillators, - pecially when area and cost are to be minimized. The main topics of the book are: cross-coupled LC quasi-sinusoidal oscillators, cross-coupled RC relaxation oscillators, a quadrature RC oscillator-mixer, and t- integrator oscillators. The effect of mismatches on the phase-error and the pha- noise are thoroughly investigated. The book includes many experimental results, obtained from different integrated circuit prototypes, in the GHz range. A structured design approach is followed: a technology independent study, with ideal blocks, is performed initially, and then the circuit level design is addressed. This book can be used in advanced courses on RF circuit design. In addition to post-graduate students and lecturers, this book will be of interest to design engineers and researchers in this area.

This book was released on 2006-07-18 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: try to predict it using mathematical expressions. His heuristic model without mathematical proof is almost universally accepted. However, it entails a c- cuit specific noise factor that is not known a priori and so is not predictive. In this work, we attempt to address the topic of oscillator design from a diff- ent perspective. By introducing a new paradigm that accurately captures the subtleties of phase noise we try to answer the question: 'why do oscillators behave in a particular way?' and 'what can be done to build an optimum design?' It is also hoped that the paradigm is useful in other areas of circuit design such as frequency synthesis and clock recovery. In Chapter 1, a general introduction and motivation to the subject is presented. Chapter 2 summarizes the fundamentals of phase noise and timing jitter and discusses earlier works on oscillator's phase noise analysis. Chapter 3 and Chapter 4 analyze the physical mechanisms behind phase noise generation in current-biased and Colpitts oscillators. Chapter 5 discusses design trade-offs and new techniques in LC oscillator design that allows optimal design. Chapter 6 and Chapter 7 discuss a topic that is typically ignored in oscillator design. That is flicker noise in LC oscillators. Finally, Chapter 8 is dedicated to the complete analysis of the role of varactors both in tuning and AM-FM noise conversion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many electronic systems, such as telecommunication or measurement systems, oscillations play an essential role in the information processing. Each electronic system poses different requirements on these oscillations, depending on the type and performance level of that specific system. It is the designer's challenge to find the specifications for the desired oscillation and to implement an electronic circuit meeting these specifications. As the desired oscillations have to fulfill many requirements, the design process can become very complex. To find an optimal solution, the designer requires a design methodology that is preferably completely top-down oriented. To achieve such a methodology, it must be assured that each property of the system can be optimized independently of all other properties. Oscillators and Oscillator Systems: Classification, Analysis and Synthesis takes a systematic approach to the design of high-performance oscillators and oscillator systems. A fundamental classification of oscillators, based on their internal timing references, forms the basis of this approach. The classification enables the designer to make strategic design decisions at a high hierarchical level of the design process. Techniques, derived from the systematic approach, are supplied to the designer to enable him or her to bring the performance of the system as close as possible to the fundamental limits. Oscillators and Oscillator Systems: Classification, Analysis and Synthesis is an excellent reference for researchers and circuit designers, and may be used as a text for advanced courses on the topic.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation focuses on the analysis, design, and application of inductor-capacitor (LC) oscillators for wireless sensor networks (WSNs). First an analysis and design optimization approach for enhanced swing, low power CMOS LC oscillators is presented. A phasor based analysis is used for determining the amplitude and phase noise of these oscillators with MOSFET operation in cut-off, linear and saturation regions. The calculated steady state output amplitude and phase noise from this analysis are in agreement with Cadence Spectre simulations for different bias conditions. An application of this analysis to the design optimization of LC oscillators is also demonstrated. This is followed by a power generation method based fast start-up analysis of resonator based oscillators. A small signal two-port based approach that is design oriented is presented. The analysis has been validated with detailed circuit level simulations. Several MOSFET oscillator architectures have been analyzed and the start-up times compared using this analysis with applications to start-up time reduction of LC oscillators. A novel low voltage quadrature LC oscillator with a fast start-up is then presented. Simulations show that the proposed oscillator can obtain a phase noise of -150 dBc/Hz at 10 MHz offset for a 5 GHz center frequency and an FoM of 195 dBc/Hz. The proposed oscillator has a superior start-up performance compared to other low voltage quadrature LC oscillator architectures. The design aspect of LC oscillators focuses on a new enhanced swing class-D VCO which operates from a supply voltage as low as 300 mV. The architectural advantages are described along with an analysis for the oscillation frequency. Prototype differential and quadrature variants of the proposed VCO have been implemented in a 65 nm RF CMOS process with a 5 GHz oscillation frequency. At a 350 mV supply, the measured phase noise performance for the quadrature VCO with a 5% tuning range is -137.1 dBc/Hz at 3 MHz offset with a power dissipation of 2.1 mW from a 0.35 V supply. The highest resulting figure-of-merit (FoM) is 198.3 dBc/Hz. Finally, an application of LC oscillators for a crystal free radio-frequency (RF) receiver design has been explored. It is shown that a source-synchronous receiver with MSK modulation is a suitable choice for eliminating the crystal in WSN applications. Design trade-offs have been analyzed using system level simulations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demonstrates how to design a wideband receiver operating in current mode, in which the noise and non-linearity are reduced, implemented in a low cost single chip, using standard CMOS technology. The authors present a solution to remove the transimpedance amplifier (TIA) block and connect directly the mixer’s output to a passive second-order continuous-time Σ∆ analog to digital converter (ADC), which operates in current-mode. These techniques enable the reduction of area, power consumption, and cost in modern CMOS receivers.

Download or read book Multiphase Reference Signal Generation Using Coupled Oscillators written by Mohammad Hekmat and published by Stanford University. This book was released on 2011 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The continuing trend toward higher frequencies of operation poses formidable challenges in the design of multiphase reference signals at mm-wave frequencies and beyond. Conventional multiphase reference generation techniques face serious implementation or performance challenges when scaled to microwave and mm-wave frequencies. Ring oscillators suffer from poor phase noise, and hence fail to fulfill the stringent requirements of most wireless applications. Generating multiphase signals by dividing the output of an oscillator operating at multiples of the intended frequency of operation is impractical when frequencies approach the mm-wave range. Cross-coupled LC oscillators have been explored as a promising alternative for multiphase and, in particular, quadrature generation. However, the frequency ambiguity that results from multiple modes of operation, as well as the severe phase noise degradation due to their inherent off-resonance operation, has inhibited their utilization in practice. This work introduces a new topology for coupled oscillators that solves the frequency ambiguity issue and mitigates phase noise degradation in coupled oscillators by employing an array of LC oscillators that are coupled in a bidirectional fashion. The proposed bidirectional coupling enforces operation at the resonance frequency of the LC tanks of the oscillator in the loop, a property that proves to be key in solving both the aforementioned issues. A quadrature frequency doubling topology using bidirectionally-coupled oscillators is also presented. The proposed approach relaxes the linearity requirements on the mixers employed in the circuit, thus allowing the frequency doubler to use highly nonlinear mixers. An experimental prototype integrated in a 90-nm CMOS technology provides output phases in increments of 45 degrees and achieves a phase noise of −101 dBc/Hz at 1- MHz offset from a 19.6-GHz carrier. The quadrature 40-GHz signal generated on chip drives a single-sideband transmitter that achieves a sideband suppression of better than 45 dB.

This book was released on 2008-10-14 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Omnidirectional Inductive Powering for Biomedical Implants investigates the feasibility of inductive powering for capsule endoscopy and freely moving systems in general. The main challenge is the random position and orientation of the power receiving system with respect to the emitting magnetic field. Where classic inductive powering assumes a predictable or fixed alignment of the respective coils, the remote system is now free to adopt just any orientation while still maintaining full power capabilities. Before elaborating on different approaches towards omnidirectional powering, the design and optimisation of a general inductive power link is discussed in all its aspects. Special attention is paid to the interaction of the inductive power link with the patient’s body. Putting theory into practice, the implementation of an inductive power link for a capsule endoscope is included in a separate chapter.
