The present invention relates to a single frequency synthesizer based FDD transceiver. A single frequency synthesizer generates and provides a carrier frequency so that frequency up-conversion and frequency down-conversion can be performed at the time of transmission and reception. Accordingly, the area, power consumption, and design complexity of the entire system can be reduced, and the performance of the system can be improved.

A digital RF converter, a digital RF modulator, and a transmitter are provided. The digital RF converter includes a delta-sigma modulated bits (DSMB) sub-block that generates a current magnitude corresponding to least-significant n bits among input signals at a first sampling speed, a least-significant bit (LSB) sub-block that generates a current magnitude corresponding to intermediate k bits among the input signals at a second sampling speed lower than the first sampling speed, and a most-significant bit (MSB) sub block that generates a current magnitude corresponding to most-significant m bits among the inputs signals at the second sampling speed.

The present invention relates to a ROM division method for reducing the size of a ROM in a direct digital frequency synthesizer (DDFS), which is used to synthesize a frequency in a communication system requiring fast frequency conversion. A ROM consuming most energy in the system, a modified Nicholas architecture is brought forth to reduce the size of ROM. In this modified Nicholas architecture, a ROM is divided into coarse ROM and fine ROM to convert phase to sine value. The present invention divides the coarse ROM and the fine ROM into quantized ROM and error ROM respectively. Then, value stored in each ROM is segmented in certain intervals and the minimum quantized value in each of the section is stored in the quantized ROM, while the difference between the original ROM value and the quantized ROM value is stored in the error ROM. This way, the size of a ROM can be reduced. Phase value inputted in a DDFS, a sine value is calculated by adding the four ROM values, i.e., coarse-quantized ROM, coarse-error ROM, fine-quantized ROM and fine-error ROM.

An automatically gain controllable linear differential amplifier using a variable degeneration resistor is disclosed. The linear differential amplifier includes an input end, a bias current source, a load unit, a first MOS transistor and a second MOS transistor. The linear differential amplifiers of the present invention can control an amplifying gain according to an input signal and improve linearity IIP3 without needing additional power consumption caused by improving the linearity. The automatically gain controllable linear differential amplifier uses NMOS/PMOS transistor so an integration process of the amplifier can be implemented more conveniently and efficiently.
