    摘要: Apparatus, systems, and methods are described that implement techniques for estimating a relative rotation between a first complex signal and a second complex signal. In apparatus form, a rotation-estimation circuit includes a first quadrant detector and receives the first and second complex signals and produces an estimate of the relative rotation between the complex signals. A variable rotator receives the estimate of the relative rotation and rotates at least one of the first and second complex signals using the estimate of the relative rotation. In method form, a first quadrant estimate is calculated that corresponds to the relative rotation between the first and second complex signals, and at least one of the first and second complex signals is rotated using the quadrant estimate of the relative rotation.

    摘要: A transconductance cell is disclosed that includes a first transistor and a second transistor. A regulator regulates an average voltage in response to a reference voltage, where the average voltage corresponds to the average of a voltage at a bias terminal of the first transistor and a voltage at a bias terminal of the second transistor. A mixer including the transconductance cell is also disclosed. In the mixer, the transconductance cell receives a differential input voltage and produces a differential output current. The mixer also includes one or more switches that multiply the differential output current with an oscillator signal. A method is disclosed that includes measuring an average voltage of a voltage at a bias terminal of a first transistor and a voltage at a bias terminal of a second transistor and regulating the average voltage responsive to the measured average voltage and a reference voltage.

    摘要: An analog-to-digital converter is provided for producing digital signal representative of analog signals. Noise induced upon the digital signals can be substantially removed using a digital decimation filter. The decimation filter includes a front-end portion which receives the digital data at a relatively high sample rate and performs filtering operations with minimal complexity. Preferably, the front-end portion includes at least one stage of filtering and more preferably at least two filter stages, each of which perform interpolation separate from decimation. According to one embodiment, the first stage of the front-end portion involves decimation and the latter stage or stages of that portion involves a combination of interpolation and decimation. The cumulative effect is to reduce the sample rate of the incoming data stream produced by, for example, a quantizer to a value which can be more easily manipulated by the back-end portion of the digital decimation filter. The front-end portion can therefore reduce the data rate change factor K to a smaller, fixed integer data rate change factor K.sub.1, regardless of whether data rate change factor K is an integer number or involves a fractional number.
