    摘要: A first receiver frequency reference is passively coupled to a second receiver by tapping a signal directly from the resonant element, such as a crystal, of an oscillator in the first receiver to drive the input of the second receiver. The sinusoidal signal from the resonant element is relatively free of harmonics and minimizes interference that could be caused by harmonics of a square wave signal coupling or an amplified signal. The oscillator of each receiver can be selectively enabled or disabled to allow the receiver to either generate or receive the frequency reference. This technique of coupling can be used to couple a frequency reference signal between integrated circuit receivers.

    摘要: A transmitter architecture (200) provides for a stable and low noise modulator where the modulation bandwidth is uncorrelated to the TX loop bandwidth. The output signal (228) of the TX loop is demodulated by a demodulator (208) and the demodulated signal is compared by a comparator (206) with the modulating input signal (202). The output of the comparator is then used to adjust a digital pre-emphasis filter (204) which preconditions the modulating input signal (202) in the digital domain. The preconditioning approach of the present invention provides for low noise because the transmitter designer can chose a narrow band for the TX loop which will also filter out the noise coming from the additional synthesizer (226) used to down convert the input signal.

    摘要: A voltage controlled oscillator (38) includes an LC tank (20) and a capacitor bank (21). LC tank (20) includes an inductor (12) and a varactor (14). The capacitive output of the varactor is controlled by a control voltage &ngr;. To electronically tune the voltage controlled oscillator, a set of capacitors (24) in the capacitor bank (21) are enabled by a digital control signal based on a frequency comparison with a desired frequency. Once the capacitor bank is set, the frequency can be locked at the desired frequency by the phase lock loop.

    摘要: A D flip-flop circuit operating in master-slave configuration which has low power consumption and is capable of high-speed operation, and a method for lowering power consumption in such a circuit is provided. The circuit embodiment includes two latches, each with a switching and memory section, and two interlaced current sources. In response to the active high clock signal the master latch memory section uses the current from the first current source while the slave latch switching section uses the current from the second current source, and vice versa. The switching section of each latch is biased with a higher current than the memory section, to provide the circuit with low power consumption. The output current provided to the switching section is preferably substantially twice the magnitude of the current provided to the memory section. The ratio of the currents of the current sources for the switching and memory section is preferably in the range of about 30% to 70%, depending on the clock frequency.
