A 0.7 - 3.7 GHz Six Phase Receiver Front-End With Third Order Harmonic Rejection

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingPaper in conference proceedingpeer-review

Abstract

This paper presents a highly linear receiver frontend
operating from 700 MHz to 3.7 GHz with 3rd order harmonic
rejection. It consists of a complementary low noise transconductance
amplifier with capacitive cross coupling and negative gm
current sources, a six phase current-mode passive mixer, and
baseband transimpedance amplifiers providing programmable
gain. The circuit has been fabricated in 65 nm CMOS technology
with an active area of just 0.09 mm2. It consumes 7.2 mA,
excluding the six phase local oscillator generation, from a 1.2 V
supply, achieving a third order harmonic rejection of 40 dB, and
a noise figure of 3 to 4.5 dB at 52 dB gain. The out of band IIP2
and IIP3 at full gain is +55 dBm and +5 dBm, respectively.
