    Abstract: Power detectors with temperature compensation and having improved accuracy over temperature are disclosed. Variations of a power detector gain over temperature is reduced by varying both the gate and drain voltages of MOS transistors within a power detector. In an exemplary design, an apparatus includes at least one MOS transistor (320), which receives an input signal (Vin), detects the power of the input signal (Vin) based on a power detection gain, and provides an output signal (lout) indicative of the power of the input signal (Vin). The at least one MOS transistor (320) is applied a variable gate bias voltage and a variable drain bias voltage in order to reduce variations of the power detection gain over temperature. At least one additional MOS transistor (322) may receive a second variable gate bias voltage and provide the variable drain bias voltage for the at least one MOS transistor.

    Abstract: A serial-type A/D converter that uses magnitude amplifiers ("magamps") and comparators for effecting the conversion of analog signals to Gray scale code signals that are then converted to binary digital signals by a Gray scale code-to-binary portion of the serial-type A/D converter. More specifically, a serial-type A/D converter that uses an n-bit converter that has n-1 magamps and n-comparators. The n-1 magamps are cascaded such that the VOL and VOH outputs of a stage is the inputs to the next stage. The output of the comparators are input to the Gray scale code-to-binary portion of the serial A/D converter. The latching of the comparators occurs outside of the magamps. This allows for the parallel latching of the n comparators. The speed of the serial-type A/D converter is determined by the bandwidth of the magamps. The serial-type A/D converter includes an offset method that significantly reduces the effects of early voltage, VA, on the output waveforms. Each stage of the serial-type A/D converter may have any desired gain and not limited to a particular gain.

    Abstract: Techniques for designing a low-noise amplifier (LNA) for operation over a wide range of input power levels. In an exemplary embodiment, a first gain path is provided in parallel with a second gain path. The first gain path includes a differential cascode amplifier with inductor source degeneration. The second gain path includes a differential cascode amplifier without inductor source degeneration. The cascode transistors of the gain paths may be selectively biased to enable or disable the first and/or second gain path. By selectively biasing the cascode transistors and input transistors, various combinations of the first and second gain paths may be selected to provide an optimized gain configuration for any input power level.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a voltage regulator (71) especially adaptable for use with a field-programmable gate array (FPGA). The voltage regulator of the present invention rapidly generates an operating voltage for the core or nucleus logic elements upon application of external power while preventing degradation of the fuses. The core or regulated voltage of an FPGA can be set to a level that provides maximum performance with minimum power consumption or, alternatively, permits propagation delays and switching rates to be adjusted so as to compensate for die to die variation. Since it is common for electrical parameters of FPGA manufactured in different wafer fabrication facilities to vary, the voltage regulator (71) is configurable as a true voltage regulator providing its output through a switching transistor (198) or, alternatively, as a pseudo-voltage regulator providing its output through a switching transistor (188).
