A 6.3–18.4 GHz I/Q Receiver With RF and LO Path Reconfigurability for 6G FR3 Applications in 22-nm FD-SOI 150 150
Author(s): Haisu Ju, Yingtao Zou, Gabriel M. Rebeiz

Abstract:

This article presents a 6.3–18.4GHz in-phase and quadrature (I/Q) direct down-conversion receiver featuring reconfigurability in both the radio frequency (RF) and local oscillator (LO) paths. The receiver comprises a multi-band reconfigurable RF front-end, double-balanced passive I/Q mixers, an I/Q LO generation network with a tunable I/Q …

A Ring-Oscillator-Based Digital Harmonic-Mixing Fractional-N PLL

A Ring-Oscillator-Based Digital Harmonic-Mixing Fractional-N PLL 150 150
Author(s): Hongyu Lu, Nader Fathy, Patrick P. Mercier

Abstract:

This letter presents a low-jitter digital harmonic-mixing fractional- $N$ phase-locked loop (PLL) using a ring oscillator. To extend the loop bandwidth, a mixer with unity gain in the phase domain is adopted, which helps suppress phase noise of the phase detector and delta-sigma modulator. Furthermore, to reduce mixing harmonics that …

A 200 GHz Wideband and Low-Power Direct-Downconversion Receiver Element in 16 nm FinFET Technology

A 200 GHz Wideband and Low-Power Direct-Downconversion Receiver Element in 16 nm FinFET Technology 150 150
Author(s): Ethan Chou, Hesham Beshary, Nima Baniasadi, Ali M. Niknejad

Abstract:

This letter presents a wideband and low-power direct-downconversion 200 GHz receiver element for digital-beamforming applications implemented in 16 nm FinFET technology. Wideband and low integrated receiver noise figure of 9.8 dB across a 21 GHz baseband bandwidth is realized with a differential low-noise amplifier leveraging an active input balun stage, while wideband gain of 29 …
