摘要: An RF circuit for wireless devices comprises a single differential power amplifier and an impedance balancing circuit for each frequency band. The impedance balancing circuit serves both to provide an appropriate impedance at the output of the amplifier as the operating mode of the device changes, and also transforms the differential output of the amplifier to a single-ended output. The impedance balancing circuit optionally comprises a BALUN circuit and a variable capacitor that is varied as the operating mode changes in order to vary the impedance at the output of the amplifier.

摘要: A monolithic upconverter integrated circuit is described which performs the first frequency conversion of a dual conversion cable television (CATV) receiver. The upconverter chip includes three functional blocks: a Gilbert type image-rejecting mixer, a phase splitter, and a voltage-controlled oscillator. Mixing is performed by a novel Gilbert type mixer including image-rejection inductors to improve the noise figure of the mixer. A differential circuit topology allows the monolithic upconverter chip to utilize a plastic dual inline batwing package without considerable performance loss. On-chip RF bypass networks, in the form of series RC terminations, also help compensate for the undesirable effects of pin inductances in the dual inline package. A resistor-based DC biasing scheme dramatically reduces power-up latency, allowing faster testing.
