Author(s): Nayu Li, Ziyao Xiong, Botao Yang, Hang Lu, Yiwei Liu, Xiaokang Qi, Gaopeng Chen, Na Yan, Chunyi Song, Zhiwei Xu

Abstract:

This article presents a K/Ka-band transmit/receive (T/R) front-end for jointed sensing and communication (JSAC) applications. A reconfigurable matching network for both signal reception and transmission is realized using the proposed triple-coupled transformer (TCT) technique, achieving low power loss and a compact footprint. The T/R switch at …

A 70-GHz Bandwidth Amplifier With Integrated Differential Bridged T-coil Peaking and Uniform Group Delay

A 70-GHz Bandwidth Amplifier With Integrated Differential Bridged T-coil Peaking and Uniform Group Delay 150 150
Author(s): Giovanni Scarlato, John R. Long

Abstract:

A two-stage amplifier in 22-nm FD-SOI CMOS integrates a fully-differential bridged T-coil for the first time. Circuit performance is benchmarked against an identical amplifier topology designed with single-ended T-coils (pseudo-differential) and an unpeaked reference. It realizes 70-GHz bandwidth with $12~\pm ~2$ -ps group delay and >10-dB return loss across 90 GHz. Bandwidth …

A 40.68-MHz Dual-Output Wireless Power Transfer System for Millimeter-Scale Biomedical Implants

A 40.68-MHz Dual-Output Wireless Power Transfer System for Millimeter-Scale Biomedical Implants 150 150
Author(s): Tianqi Lu, Sijun Du

Abstract:

This article presents a single-link, dual-output wireless power transfer (WPT) system operating at 40.68 MHz for miniature, high-power biomedical implants. The elevated carrier frequency enables a millimeter-scale receiver (RX) coil while maintaining link efficiency and output power comparable to low-frequency WPT designs. End-to-end (E2E) efficiency is optimized through global power …

SLiMDO: A Single-Link Multi-Domain-Output Isolated DC–DC Converter With Passive Magnetic Flux Sharing for Local Energy Distribution and Rx Behavior Sensing-Based Global Power Modulation

SLiMDO: A Single-Link Multi-Domain-Output Isolated DC–DC Converter With Passive Magnetic Flux Sharing for Local Energy Distribution and Rx Behavior Sensing-Based Global Power Modulation 150 150
Author(s): Jianqiang Jiang, Lei Zhao, Junyao Tang, Cheng Huang

Abstract:

This article introduces a small form-factor single-link multi-domain-output (SLiMDO) isolated dc–dc converter design. The proposed design provides two regulated outputs in separate domains in the receiver (Rx) side with a single micro-transformer. These isolated Rxes achieve local voltage regulation and automatic energy distribution across domains through passive magnetic flux …
