Book excerpt: RF CMOS Power Amplifiers: Theory Design and Implementation focuses on the design procedure and the testing issues of CMOS RF power amplifiers. This is the first monograph addressing RF CMOS power amplifier design for emerging wireless standards. The focus on power amplifiers for short is distance wireless personal and local area networks (PAN and LAN), however the design techniques are also applicable to emerging wide area networks (WAN) infrastructure using micro or pico cell networks. The book discusses CMOS power amplifier design principles and theory and describes the architectures and tardeoffs in designing linear and nonlinear power amplifiers. It then details design examples of RF CMOS power amplifiers for short distance wireless applications (e, g., Bluetooth, WLAN) including designs for multi-standard platforms. Design aspects of RF circuits in deep submicron CMOS are also discussed. RF CMOS Power Amplifiers: Theory Design and Implementation serves as a reference for RF IC design engineers and RD and R&D managers in industry, and for graduate students conducting research in wireless semiconductor IC design in general and with CMOS technology in particular.

This book was released on 2010-06-22 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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 2006-02-08 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on high performance radio frequency integrated circuits (RF IC) design in CMOS. 1. Development of radio frequency ICs Wireless communications has been advancing rapidly in the past two decades. Many high performance systems have been developed, such as cellular systems (AMPS, GSM, TDMA, CDMA, W-CDMA, etc. ), GPS system (global po- tioning system) and WLAN (wireless local area network) systems. The rapid growth of VLSI technology in both digital circuits and analog circuits provides benefits for wireless communication systems. Twenty years ago not many p- ple could imagine millions of transistors in a single chip or a complete radio for size of a penny. Now not only complete radios have been put in a single chip, but also more and more functions have been realized by a single chip and at a much lower price. A radio transmits and receives electro-magnetic signals through the air. The signals are usually transmitted on high frequency carriers. For example, a t- ical voice signal requires only 30 Kilohertz bandwidth. When it is transmitted by a FM radio station, it is often carried by a frequency in the range of tens of megahertz to hundreds of megahertz. Usually a radio is categorized by its carrier frequency, such as 900 MHz radio or 5 GHz radio. In general, the higher the carrier frequency, the better the directivity, but the more difficult the radio design.

Download or read book Design of an RF CMOS Power Amplifier for Wireless Sensor Networks written by Hua Pan and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Power Amplifier (PA) is the last Radio Frequency (RF) building block in a transmitter, directly driving an antenna. The low power RF input signal of the PA is amplified to a significant power RF output signal by converting DC power into RF power. Since the PA consumes a majority of the power, efficiency plays one of the most important roles in a PA design. Designing an efficient, fully integrated RF PA that can operate at low supply voltage (1.2V), low power, and low RF frequency (433MHz) is a major challenge. The class E Power Amplifier, which is one type of switch mode PA, is preferred in such a scenario because of its higher theoretical efficiency compared to linear power amplifiers. A controllable class E RF power amplifier design implemented in 0.13 microm CMOS process is presented. The circuit was designed, simulated, laid out, fabricated, and tested. The PA will be integrated as a part of a complete wireless transceiver system using the same process

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis researches the design of transceiver front-end RF amplifiers for Bluetooth applications in GPDK 45 nm CMOS technology. The target of the design was to minimize the transceiver's power consumption while achieving the best device operating performances. The design of a band-pass low noise amplifier (LNA) used for the receiver and the design of a power amplifier (PA) used for the transmitter were presented. Both amplifiers were designed in 45 nm CMOS technology with a DC supply voltage under 1.2 V to meet Bluetooth specifications at 2.45 GHz operating frequency. The LNA was designed to achieve a minimum small signal gain of at least 15 dB10 with a NF less than 2 dB10 and a reasonable input range for linearity at 1 mW operating power consumption. The PA was designed based on class E switching power amplifier configuration to achieve a minimum of 40% drain efficiency for 100 mW (Bluetooth Class 1) output power. Research on low power high performance Bluetooth device front-end RF amplifiers was conducted through studies of wireless communication modulation schemes, impedance matching networks, and trade-offs between performance parameters. In summation, this thesis searched for, explored, and analyzed possible methodologies that could be used to design RF CMOS amplifiers of Bluetooth applications.
