摘要:
An integrated electronic circuit comprises at least first and second variable resonator elements that can be tuned by means of an electric signal (Vtune) and that are arranged on the same silicon substrate, and that are respectively integrated into a Master circuit and a Slave circuit. Each resonator element is associated with a first inductive partner element set in the vicinity of the resonant and antiresonant frequencies; and with a second capacitive partner element, at least one of said partner elements being adjustable by means of said electric signal (Vtune). Controlling both partner elements could be done either by means of an adjustable capacitor, as a varactor, or by means of an inductor, passive or active, fixed or variable.

A negative capacitances circuit includes first and second branches connected between a first reference voltage and a second reference voltage. The first branch includes, in series, a first biasing resistor, a first diode, a first bipolar transistor, and a first current source. The second branch includes, in series, a second biasing resistor, a second diode, a second bipolar transistor, and a second current source. The first transistor has a base coupled to a collector of the second transistor and to one input, and the second transistor has a base coupled to a collector of the first transistor and to another input. A capacitor is connected between the emitter of said first transistor and the emitter of said second transistor. A linearization resistor is coupled in parallel between the two emitters of said first and said second transistors.
摘要:
A heterodyne receiving circuit for a digital communication system including a first band pass filter receiving a signal from an antenna, an amplifying circuit and a second narrow band pass filter for selecting one particular channel within a band of frequencies. The two filters are carried out with integrated BAW-type tunable resonators which can be adjusted, respectively, by a first electrical signal and a second electrical signal generated by two PLL-type frequency control loops. The second frequency control loop has a variable division factor for the purpose of selecting one particular channel within said band of frequencies. In addition, the receiving circuit includes a mixer for mixing the signal generated at the output of said second filter with a local oscillation frequency in order to produce an intermediate frequency. The division factor is controlled by a digital processing of the intermediate frequency.
