Book excerpt: Advances in electronics have pushed mankind to create devices, ranging from - credible gadgets to medical equipment to spacecraft instruments. More than that, modern society is getting used to—if not dependent on—the comfort, solutions, and astonishing amount of information brought by these devices. One ?eld that has continuously bene?tted from those advances is the radio frequency integrated c- cuit (RFIC) design, which in its turn has promoted countless bene?ts to the mankind as a payback. Wireless communications is one prominent example of what the - vances in electronics have enabled and their consequences to our daily life. How could anyone back in the eighties think of the possibilities opened by the wireless local area networks (WLANs) that can be found today in a host of places, such as public libraries, coffee shops, trains, to name just a few? How can a youngster, who lives this true WLAN experience nowadays, imagine a world without it? This book dealswith the design oflinearCMOS RF PowerAmpli?ers(PAs). The RF PA is a very important part of the RF transceiver, the device that enables wireless communications. Two important aspects that are key to keep the advances in RF PA design at an accelerate pace are treated: ef?ciency enhancement and frequen- tunable capability. For this purpose, the design of two different integrated circuits realizedina0. 11μmtechnologyispresented,eachoneaddressingadifferentaspect. With respect to ef?ciency enhancement, the design of a dynamic supply RF power ampli?er is treated, making up the material of Chaps. 2 to 4.

This book was released on 2013-05-13 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mixers are a vital part of any transceiver architecture, and their performance is critical to achieving overall specifications. Although the basic operation is, in principle, a simple multiplication, in reality the circuit level implementation must be tailored to the specific function in the signal chain, and the technology being used. Starting from some of the basic principles, this chapter aims to identify the physical origins of noise and linearity issues, and lay out the design constraints and choices for the mixer function in a modern fully integrated transceiver. With the current prevalence of CMOS, passive mixers are examined as well as the classical current steering active type and their suitability in receive and transmit functions is considered. Enhanced passive and active mixers are also examined, exploiting the I and Q signal path available in complex receiver architectures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While mobile phones enjoy the largest production volume ever of any consumer electronics products, the demands they place on radio-frequency (RF) transceivers are particularly aggressive, especially on integration with digital processors, low area, low power consumption, while being robust against process-voltage-temperature variations. Since mobile terminals inherently operate on batteries, their power budget is severely constrained. To keep up with the ever increasing data-rate, an ever-decreasing power per bit is required to maintain the battery lifetime. The RF oscillator is the second most power-hungry block of a wireless radio (after power amplifiers). Consequently, any power reduction in an RF oscillator will greatly benefit the overall power efficiency of the cellular transceiver. Moreover, the RF oscillators' purity limits the transceiver performance. The oscillator's phase noise results in power leakage into adjacent channels in a transmit mode and reciprocal mixing in a receive mode. On the other hand, the multi-standard and multi-band transceivers that are now trending demand wide tuning range oscillators. However, broadening the oscillator’s tuning range is usually at the expense of die area (cost) or phase noise. The main goal of this book is to bring forth the exciting and innovative RF oscillator structures that demonstrate better phase noise performance, lower cost, and higher power efficiency than currently achievable. Technical topics discussed in RF CMOS Oscillators for Modern Wireless Applications include:  Design and analysis of low phase-noise class-F oscillators Analyze a technique to reduce 1/f noise up-conversion in the oscillators Design and analysis of low power/low voltage oscillators Wide tuning range oscillators Reliability study of RF oscillators in nanoscale CMOS

Download or read book CMOS Integrated LC Q enhanced RF Filters for Wireless Receivers written by Wesley Albert Gee and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In wireless transceiver circuits some of the most prevalent required off-chip components are discrete filters. These components are generally implemented with surface acoustic wave (SAW) or ceramic components. These devices are used in the receiver section for discrimination of incoming radio frequency (RF) signals as well as downconverted intermediate frequency (IF) signals. Presently, with the growing demand for multi-functional wireless consumer devices, the need for full integration of RF and logic circuits in wireless communications systems is becoming increasingly evident. If integrated RF filters with acceptable electrical characteristics could be realized, this might reduce or eliminate the currently required off-chip filters, prospectively decreasing the complexity, size, and cost of future wireless transceiver circuits and systems. The objective of the present research effort is to implement an integrated Q-enhanced LC bandpass filter in a prospective receiver front-end RF amplifier using the passive and active components available in a standard digital complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) process. CMOS is the standard design medium for digital circuitry, and with the increased unity gain or transit frequency (fT) values that accompany steadily shrinking CMOS device sizes, the implementation of gigahertz frequency communications circuits in this medium is increasingly feasible. The circuit design specifically investigated in this work introduces a loss-compensated second-order gigahertz range bandpass filter implemented in a 0.18 m︡ digital CMOS process provided by National Semiconductor. This filter incorporates a unique design technique that provides improvements in filter linearity through an independently variable bias level shifting method, while also facilitating prospective single-to-differential signal conversion. One distinctive characteristic of the investigated circuit, in comparison to other RF integrated filter work, is the implementation of a novel integrated transformer feedback method that facilitates magnetically coupled loss-restoration and subsequent filter Q-enhancement. Additionally, this loss restoration method is achieved using a single transistor, in contrast to the multi-transistor cross-coupled transconductor Q-enhancement technique commonly implemented in other previous and current integrated RF filter research.

Download or read book Multiband Dual Function CMOS RFIC Filter Switches written by Cam Nguyen and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-05-25 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the theory, analysis, and design of multiband dual-function microwave and millimeter-wave CMOS radio frequency integrated circuit (RFIC) filter-switches capable of simultaneous switching and filtering, which are relevant for advanced multiband RF systems. Typical microwave and millimeter-wave switches are designed only for switching purposes without considering frequency selectivity or filtering. A separate filter is normally needed to be used with a switch to provide a filtering function. This conventional design approach hence leads to higher insertion loss, larger size and higher cost for RF systems. RF systems operating over multiple bands provide numerous advantages and offer more capabilities for communications and sensing than their single-band counterparts. A concurrent multiband system enables one single system to be used over multiple bands simultaneously, leading to optimum size, cost, and power consumption, together with ease of system implementation. Truly concurrent multiband systems require many components to work on multiple bands simultaneously, including concurrent multiband switches. Microwave and millimeter-wave integrated circuits using silicon-based CMOS (or related BiCMOS) RFICs are less expensive and better suited to direct integration with digital ICs than those using III-V compound semiconductor devices. CMOS RFICs are also small and offer low power consumption, making them suitable for portable battery-operated systems. Accordingly, CMOS RFICs are very attractive for RF systems and are the principal choice for commercial wireless markets. The content is divided into six chapters, the first four of which describe and address band-pass, high-pass, and low-pass filters, as well as multiband band-pass filters, the fundamentals of switches, and various switch architectures including single-pole single-throw (SPST), single-pole double-throw (SPDT), transmit/receive (T/R), and ultra-high-isolation switches, the fundamentals and models of MOSFETs used in the design of switches, and the essentials of CMOS RFIC design needed for the filter-switches presented in this book. In turn, the fifth chapter presents the core of the book, namely the design, simulation, and measurement of various CMOS dual-band dual-function SPDT and T/R switches capable of concurrent switching and filtering, as examples to illustrate the design of multiband dual-function filter-switches. These components operate in two different frequency bands centered at approximately 40 and 60 GHz and 24 and 60 GHz. Lastly, a summary and conclusion are provided in Chapter 6.

Download or read book CMOS Wireless Transceiver Design written by Jan Crols and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world of wireless communications is changing very rapidly since a few years. The introduction of digital data communication in combination with digital signal process ing has created the foundation for the development of many new wireless applications. High-quality digital wireless networks for voice communication with global and local coverage, like the GSM and DECT system, are only faint and early examples of the wide variety of wireless applications that will become available in the remainder of this decade. The new evolutions in wireless communications set new requirements for the trans ceivers (transmitter-receivers). Higher operating frequencies, a lower power consump tion and a very high degree of integration, are new specifications which ask for design approaches quite different from the classical RF design techniques. The integrata bility and power consumption reduction of the digital part will further improve with the continued downscaling of technologies. This is however completely different for the analog transceiver front-end, the part which performs the interfacing between the antenna and the digital signal processing. The analog front-end's integratability and power consumption are closely related to the physical limitations of the transceiver topology and not so much to the scaling of the used technology. Chapter 2 gives a detailed study of the level of integration in current transceiver realization and analyzes their limitations. In chapter 3 of this book the complex signal technique for the analysis and synthesis of multi-path receiver and transmitter topologies is introduced.
