A Third-Harmonic-Enhanced Triple-Push DCO Utilizing Source-Combining Technique

A Third-Harmonic-Enhanced Triple-Push DCO Utilizing Source-Combining Technique 150 150

Abstract:

This article presents a detailed investigation into optimizing the amplitude and phase of the transistor’s terminal voltages to generate a high 3rd-harmonic current in the millimeter-wave (mm-Wave) frequency. Based on the analysis, the digitally controlled source-combining triple-push (SCTP) oscillator is derived to significantly enhance the 3rd-harmonic current by introducing …

A 15-MHz, 2.7-mm2 Notch-Free Hybrid Magnetic Current Sensor With Feedforward Ripple Cancellation and ±0.8% Local Gain Non-Uniformity

A 15-MHz, 2.7-mm2 Notch-Free Hybrid Magnetic Current Sensor With Feedforward Ripple Cancellation and ±0.8% Local Gain Non-Uniformity 150 150

Abstract:

This article proposes a hybrid magnetic current sensor achieving a 15-MHz bandwidth within a compact 2.7-mm2 area. To mitigate the pole–zero mismatch inherent in the two-stage integrator topology, a dual-output Gm-C integrator with subtractor-based compensation is proposed, achieving a ±0.8% local gain non-uniformity. A wideband feedforward ripple suppression scheme cancels …

FeFET-Based CMOS Current Starvation Programmable Delay Element

FeFET-Based CMOS Current Starvation Programmable Delay Element 150 150

Abstract:

Programmable delay elements (PDEs) are crucial circuit building blocks that enable precise timing adjustments of signal transitions. They are used in various critical applications, like time-to-digital converters. They are often used to mitigate aging by clock skew tuning postfabrication. However, typical CMOS PDE designs require many transistors while still offering …
