Book Low Noise Wide Band Amplifiers in Bipolar and CMOS Technologies

Download or read book Low Noise Wide Band Amplifiers in Bipolar and CMOS Technologies written by Zhong Yuan Chong and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analog circuit design has grown in importance because so many circuits cannot be realized with digital techniques. Examples are receiver front-ends, particle detector circuits, etc. Actually, all circuits which require high precision, high speed and low power consumption need analog solutions. High precision also needs low noise. Much has been written already on low noise design and optimization for low noise. Very little is available however if the source is not resistive but capacitive or inductive as is the case with antennas or semiconductor detectors. This book provides design techniques for these types of optimization. This book is thus intended firstly for engineers on senior or graduate level who have already designed their first operational amplifiers and want to go further. It is especially for engineers who do not want just a circuit but the best circuit. Design techniques are given that lead to the best performance within a certain technology. Moreover, this is done for all important technologies such as bipolar, CMOS and BiCMOS. Secondly, this book is intended for engineers who want to understand what they are doing. The design techniques are intended to provide insight. In this way, the design techniques can easily be extended to other circuits as well. Also, the design techniques form a first step towards design automation. Thirdly, this book is intended for analog design engineers who want to become familiar with both bipolar and CMOS technologies and who want to learn more about which transistor to choose in BiCMOS.

Book Design of a 5 GHz Two stage Cascode CMOS Low Noise Amplifier

Download or read book Design of a 5 GHz Two stage Cascode CMOS Low Noise Amplifier written by Rius Tanadi and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the popularity of wireless communication in 2.4-GHz band grows, it causes excessive occupancy by users in that band. Since it is an unregulated frequency, the 2.4-GHz band also suffers from enormous interference effects generated by devices like microwave ovens that will cause problems in wireless local area networks (WLANs). On the other hand, the 5-GHz band provides lots of unlicensed spectrum and it has less interference. Recently, much research on wireless transceivers has been focused on the 5-GHz standard. The high demand of technology in the wireless transceivers has motivated us to study the feasibility of current CMOS technology for the implementation of radio-frequency (RF) and microwave circuits. The advance in the CMOS technology has become attractive due to the possibility of integrating the whole system on a single chip. The rapid progress of scaled CMOS technology has put standard CMOS processes in a favorable role in RF circuit fabrication. This project focused on designing a 5-GHz two-stage cascode CMOS low noise amplifier (LNA) using a standard 0.18 [mu]m fabrication process. The LNA employed inductive source degeneration topology with on-chip passive spiral inductors. An intermediate inductor is used to increase the overall gain and to decrease the noise figure. The extracted simulation results show that CMOS technology has the capability to achieve a 5-GHz LNA. The LNA draws a 7.2 mW power on a 1.8V power supply while achieving a power gain of 21 dB and noise figure of 1.54 dB. Since inductors are crucial in the design of LNA, different sizes of on-chip passive spiral inductors were also designed and characterized. The LNA and inductors are fabricated using free fabrication service provided by MOSIS for educational programs.

This book was released on 2023-10-11 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides comprehensive knowledge, aimed at practicing integrated circuit design engineer or researcher, to learn and design a low noise amplifier (LNA) for single and multiband applications. The content is structured in a way so that even a beginner can follow the design method easily. This book features the following characteristics: different types of LNA designs (with key building blocks) are discussed, and detailed analysis is given for each LNA design, which covers from the fundamental and principal knowledge to the justification of the design approach. Detailed design approaches are using 180 nm and 130nm CMOS technologies, purposely presented in this manner to give exposure to the design of LNA under different technologies. The LNAs in this book are designed for GSM, WCDMA and WLAN standards, but the same method can be used for other frequencies of operation. Comprehensive analyses on the extreme or corner condition effects are highlighted. Besides, detailed derivation of equations relating to the parameters of the LNA’s performance metrics help LNA designers in understanding how the performance metrics of the LNA can be optimized to meet the desired specification. Electromagnetic analyses using Sonnet, an electromagnetic tool able to replace the conventional post-layout simulation with resistance and capacitance parasitic extraction for more accurate frequency performance prediction are presented. The electromagnetic method is proposed to be used in the LNA design as it can accurately predict the LNA’s performance before tape-out for first-pass fabrication. MATLAB codes are provided to generate important S-parameters and noise figure values.

Book An Ultra Wide Band CMOS Low Noise Amplifier Design

Download or read book An Ultra Wide Band CMOS Low Noise Amplifier Design written by Nahusha Bhadravati Mohankumar and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An RF ultra wide band low noise amplifier designed for the frequency range of 12-18 GHz of operation is presented in this paper. The low noise amplifier is designed using the state-of-the-art complementary metal oxide semiconductor 45 nm technology. Berkeley's Predictive Technology Model (PTM) is used to generate a fairly accurate mathematical model and the SPICE data is implemented into the BSIM 4 version of the Advanced Design Systems (ADS) program. The low noise design strategy is mainly based on the analysis of high frequency CMOS operation. This LNA has two stages: the first stage is a RL feedback amplifier with an inductive load, and the second stage is a RC feedback amplifier with an inductive load. High frequency small signal MOSFET models with shunt-shunt feedback are used to determine the input impedance, output impedance and gain equations governing this circuit. Simulation results of this two stage feedback amplifier demonstrate a gain of 19 dB over a 6 GHz bandwidth, high linearity, and a low noise figure-less than 2.4 dB. This is a low voltage high current amplifier which requires a supply voltage of simply 0.5 V and has low power consumption (~13.5 mW).

Book CMOS Power Device Modeling and Amplifier Circuits

Download or read book CMOS Power Device Modeling and Amplifier Circuits written by Doris A. Chan and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A power amplifier (PA) is a key part of the RF front-end in transmitters for a local broadband network. Today, commercial PAs are made of III-V HEMT and HBT technology with excellent results. An integrated system-on-chip power amplifier circuit using CMOS technology for cost-effective and spectrum-efficient high-speed wireless communication presents major challenges because power amplifiers have been the limiting components in RF CMOS transmitter integrated circuits (ICs). At high frequencies, the distributed effect and power device-scaling issues put other constraints on PA design such as the trade-off between output power (Pout) and power added efficiency (PAE). Recently, CMOS has become attractive for low-cost and high-level integration due to the advancement of NMOS performance with ft and fmax > 100 GHz and is available from commercial CMOS foundries. However, the foundry-provided BSIM-RF model is unable to accurately predict the I-V characteristics and RF behaviors (ft and fmax) of power devices with widths of several hundred microns. Therefore, an advanced large-signal model which is able to predict distributed nonlinear effects is crucial for the successful design of high-frequency PAs. The microwave lumped and distributed layout parasitic effect in the 130 nm (BSIM3v3-RF) and 90 nm (BSIM4-RF) models to accurately predict gain, output power, and harmonic distortions of power MOSFETs at millimeter wave frequencies. The proposed power device model is verified for single devices as well as for the integrated power amplifier circuits in S-band and W-band applications. For S-band WiMAX application, we have developed an accurate modeling with layout parasitic of power CMOS devices and designed lossless matching networks to achieve single-end PA performance of 31 dB gain, 21.4 dBm output power, and 14.5% PAE at the 1 dB compression point. The measured maximum output power is 25.5 dBm and the associated PAE is 32%. For W-band application, a compact two-stage CMOS power amplifier is designed with gain boosting at the common gate transistor, source degeneration for the cascode devices and LC short stub matching networks. The amplifier was fabricated and demonstrated with excellent RF performance of 18 dB gain, 10.8 dBm linear output power, 13.3 dBm saturated power, and 11.8% PAE at 80 GHz with a minimum chip area of 0.35 mm2 in 90 nm CMOS technology. Monolithic power-combining techniques are attractive for delivering linear power over 20 dBm at W-band range due to the size reduction of the combiner. A W-band monolithic CPW Wilkinson power combiner of two CMOS power amplifiers is implemented in 90 nm CMOS technology. The 77 to 83 GHz CMOS PA achieved the 17 dB small-signal gain, 4.5 GHz 3 dB bandwidth, 10.6 dBm linear output power, 12.3 dBm saturated power, and 3.9% PAE at 80 GHz.
