    摘要: A DC offset calibration apparatus including a signal processing unit, a comparison unit, a first resistor array, a second resistor array, and a resistor array control unit is provided. The signal processing unit receives an input differential signal and generates an output differential signal. The comparison unit detects and determines a first DC output voltage and a second DC output voltage of the output differential signal and generates a DC offset signal. First ends of the first resistor array and the second resistor array are respectively coupled to a first input terminal and a second input terminal of the signal processing unit. The resistor array control unit adjusts resistances of the first and the second resistor array according to the DC offset signal and a bit code sequence until the DC offset signal enters a transient state, so as to calibrate a DC offset voltage in the output differential signal.

    摘要: An automatic frequency calibration circuit and an automatic frequency calibration method for a fractional-N frequency synthesizer are provided. In a calibration mode, a state machine adjusts a fractional part and an integer part of a division ratio of a frequency divider unit according to a required precision. A first and a second frequency detecting units detect a reference frequency and an output frequency of the frequency divider unit, respectively. A judging interval unit defines at least one judging period in a total comparison time. A comparator compares the outputs of the first and the second frequency detecting units and outputs a comparison result at the judging period. Wherein, the state machine changes the capacitor configuration of a voltage-controlled oscillator when the comparison result shows that the reference frequency does not match the output frequency of the frequency divider unit.

    摘要: A device for voltage-noise rejection and fast start-up is provided. It comprises a low-pass filter connected to a voltage source, a voltage-controlled switch connected in parallel with the low-pass filter, and an auxiliary start-up element connected to a DC-only voltage output. By using a transistor operating in the triode region and a capacitor with suitable capacitance, it is suitable for integration to form a low-frequency low-pass pole to suppress the noise in the reference current. The auxiliary start-up element overcomes the large turn on time caused by the low frequency low-pass pole. As there is no static current during normal operation, the power consumption for the device is low.

    摘要: The noise figure of a low noise amplifier (LNA) is reduced without sacrificing performance such as gain, IIP3, and wideband impedance matching. Embodiments include configuring a control module of the LNA to sum and scale an output from a current-sensing branch of the LNA and an output from a voltage sensing branch of the LNA into one or more summed and scaled outputs. The control module also feeds the one or more summed and scaled outputs back to at least one of the outputs of the branches of the LNA.
