    Abstract: A radio frequency (RF) receiver and a method of receiving an RF signal are provided. The RF receiver includes a low-noise amplifying unit which amplifies a received signal while restricting out-of-band interference of the received signal, a sampling unit which performs sampling to convert the amplified signal to a discrete time domain signal, a frequency translation unit which down-converts the discrete time domain signal into a frequency band that enables the discrete time domain signal to be converted into a digital signal and restricts interference from a frequency within an aliasing band according to a sampling frequency, an anti-aliasing filtering unit which prevents aliasing from the down-converted signal, a clock unit which provides the sampling unit, the frequency translation unit, and the anti-aliasing filtering unit with sampling frequencies, and an analog-digital-converter which converts the converted signal into the digital signal.

    Abstract: Provided are an IC and a method for automatically tuning process and temperature variations. The IC includes: a test circuit unit including test circuit elements having identical element values and variations to a tuning-targeted circuit element and at least one reference circuit element having a smaller variation than the tuning-targeted circuit element; a comparator that obtains a difference between intensities of first and second signals detected from the test circuit unit; and a tuning unit that tunes the variation of the tuning-targeted circuit element according to the difference between the intensities of the first and second signals. Thus, process and temperature variations of a circuit element can be detected and accurately tuned with respect to the circuit element itself. Also, the process and temperature variations can be tuned inside an IC. Thus, the time required for tuning the process and temperature variations can be reduced.

    Abstract: A radio frequency voltage controlled oscillator (RF VCO) includes a differential oscillator including two field effect transistors (FETs) in which an electric current flows laterally to a substrate and a current source including a bipolar transistor in which the electric current flows in a direction either perpendicular or lateral to the substrate from an emitter to a collector via a base. Therefore, 1/f noise is very small. Resultantly, the RF VCO using the bipolar junction transistor as the current source reduces the 1/f noise generated by the current source of a RF CMOS VCO and, ultimately, the phase noise of the VCO.
