摘要:
An embodiment of the invention provides a single-ended polar transmitting circuit. The single-ended polar transmitting circuit comprises a DAC, a differential-to-single-ended converter, a GmC filter and a load. The GmC filter comprises two gain stages, two filters, two switching devices, a translinear loop and a current mirror. When a second clock signal is high, a first current is conducted through the load, a second switching device and a second gain stage. When a first clock signal is high, a second current is conducted through a first switching device and the second gain stage. The first gain stage has a transconductance Gm1 and the second gain stage has a transconductance Gm2. The bandwidth of the GmC filter is approximately equal to the square root of the quantity (Gm1*Gm2)/(C1*C2). The bandwidth of the GmC filter is substantially a constant value.

Various systems and methods for low power identification are described herein. For example, a radio frequency device including a radio frequency energy receiver. The radio frequency energy receiver is operable to receive a radio frequency energy and to convert the radio frequency energy to a DC current. In addition, the device further includes a first clock generator that generates a first clock at a first frequency and second clock generator that generates another clock based on the first clock. The first clock generator includes a duty cycle correction circuit. The second clock has a positive going clock edge for each edge of the first clock.

A voltage regulation circuit for an RFID circuit having a voltage limiter circuit including a current sensing element for sensing current through the voltage limiter circuit. The voltage limiter generates a limited voltage. A voltage regulator is coupled to the limited voltage for generating a regulated output voltage. The voltage regulator has a dynamic biasing current responsive to an output of the sensing element for increasing bandwidth of the voltage regulator when current in the voltage limiter circuit increases.
