摘要: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for a programmable input impedance circuit for a radio frequency (RF) low noise amplifier (LNA) including a high impedance mode circuit and a low impedance mode circuit. The high impedance mode circuit includes an inductor-degenerated transconductor transistor, an inductor selectively coupled between a source of the inductor-degenerated transconductor transistor and a ground, and a capacitor coupled between a gate of the inductor-degenerated transconductor transistor and the source of the inductor-degenerated transconductor transistor. The low impedance mode circuit includes a shunt resistor selectively coupled between an RF input source and an alternating current (AC) ground.

摘要: The present disclosure relates to single-ended-to-differential amplifiers and radio frequency receivers. One example single-ended-to-differential amplifier includes a first inverting amplifier, a second inverting amplifier, and a third inverting amplifier. Both an input end of the first inverting amplifier and an input end of the second inverting amplifier are coupled to an input end of the single-ended-to-differential amplifier, an output end of the first inverting amplifier is coupled to an input end of the third inverting amplifier, an output end of the second inverting amplifier is coupled to a first output end of the single-ended-to-differential amplifier, and an output end of the third inverting amplifier is coupled to a second output end of the single-ended-to-differential amplifier. An impedance element is coupled between the input end of the first inverting amplifier and the output end of the first inverting amplifier.

摘要: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for a radio frequency (RF) receiver including a dual-mode low noise amplifier (LNA). One of the methods includes configuring the RF receiver to a wideband mode including operation over a multiple receive frequency (RX) bands including multiple frequencies, receiving, by the RF receiver, an input RF signal, scanning the multiple frequencies to detect a transmitted frequency of the input RF signal, configuring the RF receiver to narrowband mode including operation over a proper subset of the RX bands including a proper subset of the multiple frequencies, and tuning the RF receiver to the transmitted frequency.
