    摘要: A gain controllable low noise amplifier (LNA) (200) with automatic linearity enhancement utilizes an amplifier stage (203) for amplifying a radio frequency (RF) input signal and a dynamically controllable feedback loop amplifier stage (205) for providing negative feedback to the feedback amplifier.

    摘要: A voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) for use in a personal area network synthesizer includes a delay cell (100), a first current amplifier (201, 203) for amplifying an input current, a resister capacitor (RC) tuning network (207, 209, 211) for varying the amount of amplification and delay of an output of the first current amplifier. A second current amplifier (213, 215) is then used for amplifying an output current from the RC tuning network. The invention includes a unique composite voltage variable capacitor (CVVC) (300) for precisely tuning the amount of delay presented by the delay cell. The unique topology of the delay cell (100) allows it to be readily used in voltage controlled oscillators (VCOs) operable at frequencies above 1 GHz.

    摘要: A wideband fully integrated two-way radio transmitter (100) includes a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) (101) for providing a voltage at a radio frequency. A divider (103) is used reducing the radio frequency (RF) signal from the VCO to a an intermediate frequency. A voltage-to-current converter is used for changing the voltage of the intermediate frequency RF signal to an RF current. A transmit buffer is then used for amplifying the RF current supplied by the voltage-to-current converter for amplification by a power amplifier. The fully integrated current mode transmit buffer offers the advantage of amplification over a large bandwidth while providing isolation between the transmit buffer and the VCO.

    摘要: A system for coarsely tuning at least one voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) (211) in a phase locked loop (PLL) synthesizer (200) that includes a phase-frequency detector (PFD) for determining a phase difference between a VCO frequency and a reference frequency and providing an error signal if the VCO frequency and reference frequency are at least 2&pgr; radians out of phase. A monitor (215) is then used for tracking the number of error signals produced by the PFD. The free running frequency of the VCO may be coarsely tuned in the event the monitor circuit reaches some predetermined level. The invention offers great advantage in enabling a PLL to be coarsely tuned to enable the PLL's VCO to remain with an operational range despite operational factors that effect circuit operation.

    摘要: The invention produces an accurate quadrature relationship for a range of frequencies using passive components in the primary quadrature splitting circuits. A reference oscillator (202) generates a reference signal which is fed to a conventional passive quadrature splitter circuit (204). However, since the reference circuit provides signals over a range of frequencies, the output signals of the passive quadrature splitter may not have an accurate quadrature relationship. The output signals of the passive quadrature splitter are then equalized in magnitude, and the sum and difference of the signals are produced, which will be in an accurate quadrature relationship.
