Journal ArticleDOI
A Sub-mW, Ultra-Low-Voltage, Wideband Low-Noise Amplifier Design Technique
TL;DR: The ULV circuit design challenges are discussed and a new biasing metric for ULV and ULP designs in deep-submicrometer CMOS technologies is introduced and series inductive peaking in the feedback loop is analyzed and employed to enhance the bandwidth and noise performance of the LNA.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Ultra-Low-Power Wideband Inductorless CMOS LNA With Tunable Active Shunt-Feedback
TL;DR: In this paper, a 1-V ultra-low power, compact, and wideband low-noise amplifier (LNA) using common-gate (CG) NMOS and PMOS transistors as input devices in a complementary current-reuse structure was proposed.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Ultra-wideband (UWB) communications systems: an overview
T.K.K. Tsang,Mourad N. El-Gamal +1 more
TL;DR: An overview of the ultra wideband (UWB) technology for wireless communications systems is presented in this paper, with an emphasis on monolithic implementations of UWB wireless systems, and trade-offs between performance, power consumption, and technology choices are addressed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short Channel Output Conductance Enhancement Through Forward Body Biasing to Realize a 0.5 V 250 $\upmu \text{W}$ 0.6–4.2 GHz Current-Reuse CMOS LNA
TL;DR: It is shown that FBB boosts the output resistance of a transistor such that the intrinsic gain reduction due to low-supply voltages can be compensated and used to implement a low-noise amplifier (LNA) tailored for ultra-low power (ULP) and ULV applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Highly Integrated 1.8 GHz Frequency Synthesizer Based on a MEMS Resonator
TL;DR: A highly integrated 1.7-2.0 GHz digitally programmable frequency synthesizer using a MEMS resonator as its reference is presented, which considerably reduces the form factor and cost of the system, compared to using an external crystal as a reference.
