    摘要: A bias circuit (200) for a PA (100) is disclosed. It comprises a first transistor (M1) having its drain terminal and its gate terminal connected to a first circuit node (x) and its source terminal connected to a first supply terminal (GND), a first current source (I1) connected to the first circuit node (x), and a digitally controllable first resistor (R1) connected between the first circuit node (x) and a second circuit node (y). It further comprises a second transistor (M2) configured to receive a first component (RFinp) of a differential input signal to the PA at its gate terminal, having its drain terminal connected to the second circuit node (y) and its source terminal connected to a second supply terminal (VDD), and a third transistor (M3) configured to receive a second component (RFinn) of the differential input signal to the PA at its gate terminal, having its drain terminal connected to the second circuit node (y) and its source terminal connected to a second supply terminal (VDD). The gate terminals of the second transistor (M2) and the third transistor (M3) are configured to be biased by a digitally controllable first voltage (V1). The bias circuit is configured to generate a bias voltage (Vbias) for the PA (100) at the second circuit node (y).

    摘要: A switched capacitor arrangement (200) for tuning a differential circuit is disclosed. The switched capacitor arrangement (200) comprises a first node (211), a second node (212) and a third node (213). The switched capacitor arrangement (200) further comprises a first capacitor (C1) coupled between the first node (211) and the second node (212), a second capacitor (C2) coupled between the second node (212) and the third node (213), and a first switch branch comprising a first switch (S1) coupled between the second node (212) and a signal ground node. The first switch (S1) has an on state and an off state. The first node (211) and third node (213) are configured to be connected to respective differential nodes (Vtank, -Vtank) of the differential circuit. The switched capacitor arrangement (200) is configured to tune the differential circuit by controlling the state of the first switch (S1).
