摘要:
A current generator and method of making a current generator in which two resistors are provided, each in series with one of two transistors in the generator, and in which one of the resistors is trimmed if the reference current is too large and the other is trimmed if the reference current is too small, thereby obviating the problems of the prior art in which one resistor must be trimmed by a potentially large and unacceptable amount. The two resistors are formed with a distribution of resistances which is centered on their corresponding target resistance values so that the number of resistors to be trimmed and the amount of trimming per resistor are reduced. The appropriate target resistances of the resistors can be determined if a maximum trim factor is set. The method is insensitive to variations in the process by which the resistances of the resistors are initially set and reduces the variability of the untrimmed reference current with respect to resistor critical dimensions.

A voltage controlled oscillator outputting a differential signal includes: an inductor connected to a first power supply supplying first voltage; first and second transistors for differential switching; first and second variable capacitors connected to the inductor in parallel; a third transistor of which a gate electrode is connected to a first node; and a fourth transistor of which a gate electrode is connected to a second node. When bias voltage is applied to the gate electrode of the first transistor to be turned on, negative resistance is generated by voltage applied to the first capacitor and the second capacitor through the first transistor. When voltage outputted through the first node is applied to the gate electrode of the third transistor to be turned on, the voltage is additionally applied to the first capacitor and the second capacitor by the third transistor to increase the negative resistance.

摘要:
A single bias block for a single or multiple low voltage RF circuits including one or more amplifiers and one or more single or double balanced mixers with compensation for temperature and integrated circuit process parameters. The power supply may be a lower voltage without sacrificing the dynamic range of the amplifier and/or mixer by applying full power supply voltage to the load with the bias applied to the base circuit through an operational amplifier and/or buffer circuit. For the mixer, a lower noise figure may also be realized by moving the gain control impedance from the emitter to the collector circuit. The circuits may be discrete components or part of an integrated circuit. Methods are disclosed for reducing the power supply voltage without affecting the dynamic range of an amplifier, for temperature and process parameter compensation, and for controlling the gain of a mixer without affecting input or output impedance.
