摘要: In described examples, a quadrature phase shifter includes digitally programmable phase shifter networks for generating leading and lagging output signals in quadrature. The phase shifter networks include passive components for reactively inducing phase shifts, which need not consume active power. Output currents from the transistors coupled to the phase shifter networks are substantially in quadrature and can be made further accurate by adjusted by a weight function implemented using current steering elements. Example low-loss quadrature phase shifters described herein can be functionally integrated to provide low-power, low-noise up/down mixers, vector modulators and transceiver front-ends for millimeter wavelength (mmwave) communication systems.

摘要: A variable-gain power amplifying technique includes generating, with a network of one or more reactive components included in an oscillator, a first oscillating signal, and outputting, via one or more taps included in the network of the reactive components, a second oscillating signal. The second oscillating signal has a magnitude that is proportional to and less than the first oscillating signal. The power amplifying technique further includes selecting one of the first and second oscillating signals to use for generating a power-amplified output signal, and amplifying the selected one of the first and second oscillating signals to generate the power-amplified output signal.

摘要: A circuit and apparatus for filtering harmful harmonics is disclosed. The circuit and apparatus include a power amplifier core that uses equally sized inverter based amplifiers. The amplifier core cells provide uniform load to all phases of a fundamental frequency to cancel all harmonics at an output. The power amplifier stages are driven into nonlinearity, and the combination of harmonics is performed at the output by varying series connected capacitors. The harmonic combination is performed at the output, leaving no further scope of nonlinearity in the signal chain.

摘要: A system of multiple concurrent receivers is described to process multiple narrow bandwidth wireless signals with arbitrary bandwidth and center frequency separation. These multiple receivers may provide a downconverted signal at the baseband frequency to process signal bandwidth using the lowest power consumption while using fully modular signal processing blocks operating at the low frequency. The concurrent receivers may operate from a single high frequency amplifier and may be derived from a low impedance point to reduce loading and improve scalability. The center frequency and bandwidth of each of the channels as well as phases of each of the channels may be independently reconfigured to achieve scalability, and on-chip test and calibration capability.

摘要: Methods and circuitry for calibrating inductive-capacitive resonant circuits are disclosed. An example of the circuitry includes an inductive-capacitive (L-C) resonant circuit operable to receive signals in response to induced electromagnetic signals transmitted on a carrier frequency. A demodulator has a signal source and is operable to demodulate signals generated by the L-C resonant circuit. Switching circuitry is operable to inject signals generated by the signal source into the L-C resonant circuit during a calibration mode. The calibration mode is for adjusting the capacitance in the L-C resonant circuit to tune the L-C resonant circuit to the carrier frequency.
