CMOS合成器MB-OFDMUWB宽带混频器正交VCO
创新点1:宽带单边带混频器采用宽带感性网络负载技术,显著提升混频器的带宽和线性度,支持3.1 GHz至8.0 GHz的超宽带频率覆盖,同时优化了相位噪声性能。
创新点2:改进的变压器耦合正交VCO通过优化变压器结构和耦合机制,实现了更低的相位噪声(127.4 dBc/Hz @10 MHz偏移)和更高的频率稳定性,适用于多频段OFDM系统。
创新点3:互连负载不敏感布局技术通过创新的布线设计和负载隔离方法,减少了互连寄生效应,提升了电路的整体性能,特别是在高频(31 GHz)下的信号完整性。
创新点4:双转换零中频架构的系统创新,结合上述电路技术,实现了快速切换(<1 ns)和低功耗(59 mA @1.5 V),适用于多频段UWB通信。
Abstract
This paper presents the design of a CMOS synthesizer for dual-conversion zero-IF2 Multi-Band OFDM (MB-OFDM) transceivers covering the first 9 frequency bands from 3.1 GHz to 8.0 GHz, each with a bandwidth of 528 MHz. A wideband single-sideband mixer with wideband inductive network loading is proposed. Moreover, a modified transformer-coupled quadrature VCO and interconnection-loading-insensitive layout technique are employed. Fabricated in TSMC 0.18- m CMOS process and operated at 1.5 V , the synthesizer measures phase noise of 127.4 dBc/Hz at 10 MHz offset, integrated phase noise of 4.43 , sideband suppression of better than 22 dBc, and a switching time of less than 1ns while consuming 59 mA.
