    Abstract: A receiver, implemented with low noise and low distortion, to process an input signal containing signals of interest and unwanted interference signal. In an embodiment, the receiver contains a mixer which generates an intermediate signal in the form of an electric current, and a filter which filters the unwanted interference signals from the intermediate signal. The intermediate signal is centered around a lower frequency compared to a crier frequency of the input signal. Due to the current mode interface between the mixer and the filter circuit, low noise and low distortion may be attended.

    Abstract: A trans-impedance filter circuit provided according to an aspect of the present invention contains an operational amplifier, a first resistor, a first capacitor, a second resistor, and a second capacitor. The second capacitor is connected in parallel between the inverting input terminal and an output path of the operational amplifier. The second resistor is connected between the output terminal of the operational amplifier and a second node on a path connecting the input signal to the inverting input terminal. The first resistor is coupled between the first node and inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier. The first capacitor is coupled between the first node and Vss. Due to such connections, the filter circuit operates as a second order filter circuit, thereby providing a desired high level of filtering. Also, as the filter circuit is implemented with a single operational amplifier, the power and area requirements are reduced.

    Abstract: A low distortion filter circuit implementing variable gain amplification (VGA). An aspect of the present invention increases the degrees of freedom (number of components which can be independently programmed/changed to corresponding desired values) to achieve a desired combination of D.C. gain and filter characteristics (e.g., corner frequency, Q-factor, notch frequency, etc.). Such additional degrees of freedom are attained by including additional components in either an input block or a feedback block (implemented with reference to an operational amplifier), and by redesigning the other block using principles such as admittance cancellation to remove the effects of such additional components. The blocks are designed such that a terminal of the programmable components is connected to a fixed/constant voltage (e.g., ground). Embodiments implementing bi-quad single amplifier with and without notch are disclosed.
