A 300-μW BLE-Compliant Packet-Based Data-Agnostic Clock-Harvesting RX Achieving −85/−70 dBm Sensitivity for ±40/±15 ppm Accuracy

A 300-μW BLE-Compliant Packet-Based Data-Agnostic Clock-Harvesting RX Achieving −85/−70 dBm Sensitivity for ±40/±15 ppm Accuracy 150 150

Abstract:

An ultralow-power Bluetooth low energy (BLE)-compliant crystal-less clock-harvesting receiver is presented that uses the BLE advertising packets (APs) to calibrate an on-chip frequency reference with ±400 ppm initial frequency offset. The proposed front-end, fabricated in 22 nm FDSOI, is capable of pushing the frequency accuracy of the reference further to below ±40/±15 …

P-Dits for the Frequency Assignment Problem With Transmitter Deactivation in Dense Environments

P-Dits for the Frequency Assignment Problem With Transmitter Deactivation in Dense Environments 150 150

Abstract:

The frequency assignment problem is a nondeterministic polynomial-time hard (NP-hard) optimization problem concerning the assignment of frequency channels to wireless transmitters. Typically, the aim is to minimize interference between transmitters while maintaining a high level of service. In this work, the use of probabilistic d-dimensional bits, or p-dits, for this …

A Coherent Polar Phase-Tracking Receiver With High ACR and Relaxed I/Q Generation

A Coherent Polar Phase-Tracking Receiver With High ACR and Relaxed I/Q Generation 150 150

Abstract:

This article presents a coherent polar phase-tracking receiver (PT-RX) for low-power Internet-of-Things(IoT) applications that supports Gaussian frequency-shift keying (GFSK), quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM), and amplitude phase shift keying (APSK). Existing single-path closed-loop receivers achieve low power but suffer from a fundamental tradeoff between loop stability and adjacent channel rejection (…

A 560 μ W, 6 fA/√Hz, 146 dB-DR Ultrasensitive Current Readout Circuit for PWM-Dimming-Tolerant Under-Display Ambient Light Sensors

A 560 μ W, 6 fA/√Hz, 146 dB-DR Ultrasensitive Current Readout Circuit for PWM-Dimming-Tolerant Under-Display Ambient Light Sensors 150 150

Abstract:

This letter presents an ultralow-noise, power-efficient, and pulse-width modulation (PWM)-dimming-tolerant photocurrent readout circuit for under-display ambient light sensor (ALS). A transimpedance amplifier (TIA) with a feedback diode achieves G $\Omega $ -level resistance and 6 fA/ $\surd $ Hz input current noise, enabling sub-pA resolution. Instability and noise folding are mitigated at …
